Association of long-term exposure to ambient air pollution with the number of tuberculosis cases notified: a time-series study in Hong Kong

Man Xu et al.

Summary: The study found that long-term exposure to high concentrations of air pollution in Hong Kong may be associated with an increase in the number of notified tuberculosis cases. Nonlinear relationships were identified between PM10, PM2.5, and CO concentrations and tuberculosis notifications, with concentrations above specific percentiles leading to an increase in notification rates.

The WHO Global Tuberculosis 2021 Report - not so good news and turning the tide back to End TB

Jeremiah Chakaya et al.

Summary: The 2021 WHO global TB report presents a grim situation in the global epidemic of TB, including a stagnation in TB incidence decline, a decline in TB notifications, and an increase in estimated TB deaths. None of the targets set at the 2018 United Nations High Level Meeting on TB were achieved. The sub-optimal global performance in achieving TB control targets in 2020 is attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic, but TB programs were already off track before the pandemic, highlighting the fragility of the global TB response. Ending the global TB epidemic requires bold leadership, optimization of interventions, widespread coverage, addressing social determinants, and mobilization of adequate funding.

Can El Nino-Southern Oscillation Increase Respiratory Infectious Diseases in China? An Empirical Study of 31 Provinces

Qingyun Tang et al.

Summary: This study empirically tests the impact of El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) on respiratory infectious diseases (RID) morbidity in China using the system generalized method of moments (SYS-GMM) and data from 31 provinces from 2007 to 2018. The results show that ENSO has a positive and significant impact on RID morbidity, with an increase of 5.842% during El Nino years compared to normal years. In addition, per capita disposable income and average years of education effectively weaken the relationship between ENSO and RID morbidity.

Delayed diagnosis of active pulmonary tuberculosis-potential risk factors for patient and healthcare delays in Portugal

Joao Almeida Santos et al.

Summary: This study found that patient and total delays have increased in recent years. Older patients, patients with alcohol problems, other comorbidities, unemployed or from countries with high TB incidence would benefit from the development of specific public health strategies to reduce the delay in TB diagnosis observed in our study.

Spatiotemporal clustering and meteorological factors affected scarlet fever incidence in mainland China from 2004 to 2017

Hua-xiang Rao et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the spatiotemporal dynamic distribution of scarlet fever in China and identified high-risk clusters in the north and northeast. It found that high temperature, low precipitation, and sunshine hours were associated with increased scarlet fever incidence.
