Abstract:Objective To investigate the current status and epidemiological characteristics of tuberculosis (TB) in Nanchang City so as to provide references for formulating TB prevention and treatment strategies. Methods The data regarding the incidence of TB in Nanchang City from 2010 to 2015 were collected from Tuberculosis Information Management System, then processed and analyzed. Results A total of 28,543 TB cases were reported in Nanchang City during 2010-2015. The epidemics of TB in Nanchang City from 2010 to 2015 showed a downward trend year by year. Most of the cases occurred in spring, especially in March, April and May. The incidence was higher in the males than in the females, with the sex ratio being 2.58:1.00. The majority of the cases were the middle-aged and elderly, and the epidemics of TB were particularly pervasive in farmers.
