Abstract:
Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of tuberculosis in Haikou from 2016 to 2020, and to provide theoretical support for the implementation of TB prevention and control measures in this region . Methods Collect data of active tuberculosis patients registered and managed in Haikou for 2016-2020 years, analyze the registration rate of tuberculosis in Haikou in 5 years. Comparison of tuberculosis registration rates among different gender, age groups, nationalities and occupation. Results In 2016-2020 years, 3 256 cases of tuberculosis were registered in Haikou. The average annual TB registration rate was 27.09/100 000, showing a gradual decrease. The incidence rate was the highest in 2016 (34.99/100 000) and the lowest in 2020 (17.99/100 000). The registration rate of tuberculosis in men was significantly higher than that of women (P<0.05). Compared with the registration rate of tuberculosis in different age groups, the incidence rate of the 0-14 year old group was the lowest, and the registration rate of people aged 60 or above was the highest, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). From 2016 to 2020, the highest tuberculosis registration rate among different ethnic groups was Han nationality (92.63%), followed by Li nationality (3.53%), Miao nationality (2.09%), Hui nationality (1.14%) and others (0.61%).The three highest occupation rates of tuberculosis were farmers, unemployed workers and workers, 55.80%, 14.74% and 8.88% respectively. Conclusion The registration rate of pulmonary tuberculosis in Haikou has a downward trend overall, and prevention and control work needs to focus on the male and the elderly in order to better prevent and control the epidemic of tuberculosis in this area.
