  • Tuberculosis space-temporal distribution from 2011 to 2016 in the municipality of Maputo, Mozambique Antonio C. Titosse Marcus Vinícius Pimenta Rodrigues Ana Paula Marques Ramos Lucas Prado Osco Rogério Giuffrida Elivelton da Silva Fonseca Alba Regina Azevedo Arana Salud spatial Mozambique Epidemiology public health temporal analysis Objective: Carry out a spatial-temporal characterization of the incidence of tuberculosis (TB) in Maputo, Mozambique. Method: a descriptive ecological study of tuberculosis cases reported in an information system. The annual mean incidence rate and the number of TB notification cases in the municipality of Maputo from 2011 to 2016 were analyzed. Descriptive statistics were used with calculations of measures of central tendency (mean) and an application of the Poisson linear regression model. Trimester notifications were stratified by district, clinical form, and age group. The quarterly average temperature of the evaluated area was added as a covariate in the model seasonal. Results: 34,623 TB cases were notified from 2011 to 2016, with a trimester average of 1,443 cases. The average annual incidence was higher in the Kampfumo district, with 909.8 per 100 thousand inhabitants (95% CI 854.1 - 968.2); almost twice as much as the incidence of the municipality of Maputo, 527.8 (95% CI 514, 3-541.6), and the country of Mozambique, 551 (95% CI 356 - 787). The clinical diagnosis of the tested cases was higher concerning the bacteriological diagnosis; 44%, and 35%, respectively. Conclusion: Maputo had similar incidence rates to the country of Mozambique, however, there was a heterogeneity rate by district and a reduction in the number of TB cases in both the general population (not co-infected with HIV) and those over 15 years old, being higher in the first trimester. 2021 artículo científico 1659-0201 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=44668223010 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/446/44668223010/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/446/44668223010/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/446/44668223010/44668223010.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/446/44668223010/movil 10.15517/psm.v18i2.43340 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=446 Población y Salud en Mesoamérica application/pdf Universidad de Costa Rica Población y Salud en Mesoamérica (Costa Rica) Num.2 Vol.18
