Epidemiology of tuberculosis in Chongqing, China: a secular trend from 1992 to 2015

Abstract Chongqing is a southwest city of China with high tuberculosis (TB) burden. An observational retrospective study has been performed based on routine TB surveillance data in Chongqing from 1992 to 2015. The TB notification rate has declined to 70.8 cases per 100,000 population from the peak o...
