Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the epidemic characteristics and trends in incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) in Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province from 2010 to 2024, so as to provide the basis for improving PTB prevention and control strategies.
Methods:The PTB data in Wenzhou City from 2010 to 2024 were captured from the Surveillance System of China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention. Descriptive epidemiological methods were applied to analyze the characteristics across different genders, age, and regions. The average annual percent change (AAPC) was used to evaluate the trend in PTB incidence.
Results:A total of 73 706 PTB cases were reported in Wenzhou City from 2010 to 2024, with an average annual reported incidence of 52.92/100 000. The reported incidence of PTB decreased from 75.33/100 000 in 2010 to 35.47/100 000 in 2024, showing a significant overall downward trend (AAPC=-5 .287%, P<0.05). The average annual reported incidence of PTB was higher in males than in females (70.45/100 000vs. 33.41/100 000, P<0.05). The trends in reported incidence for both males and females were generally consistent with the overall population, showing declining trends (AAPC=-4.992% and -6.112%, both P<0.05). The group aged ≥65 years had the highest average annual reported incidence of PTB at 91.73/100 000. From 2010 to 2024, significant declining trends were observed in the groups aged 15-<25, 25-<35, 35-<45, and 45-<55 years (AAPC=-8.599%, -7.975%, -9.007%, and -5.104%, all P<0.05). The average annual reported incidences of PTB in Taishun County, Longwan District, and Yongjia County were higher, at 81.08/100 000, 75.31/100 000, and 64.68/100 000, respectively. Except for Dongtou District, Pingyang County, and Taishun County, the reported incidences in all other counties (cities, districts) showed declining trends from 2010 to 2024, with AAPC values ranging from -9.056% to -3.791% (all P<0.05).
Conclusions:The reported incidence of PTB in Wenzhou City from 2010 to 2024 showed an overall declining trend, varying in genders, age, and regions. Males and individuals aged ≥65 years were the key populations for prevention and control. Taishun County, Longwan District, and Yongjia County were high-incidence areas.
