A Spatio-Temporal analysis of tuberculosis incidence and regional per capita GDP in Chongqing,2011-2014
Objective:To explore tuberculosis incidence related to social economy vary across 38 counties of Chongqing area. Methods:Spearman rank correlation analysis and geographically weighted regression(GWR)were used to figure out the relationship between tuberculosis incidence and social economy with four-year tuberculosis and social economic data from 2011 to 2014. Results:Incidence of tuberculosis concentrated in the northeast and southeast of Chongqing region(Moran’s I were 0.52
0.49
0.56
0.39
P=0.000). Incidence of tuberculosis was negatively related to per capita GDP by Spearman rank correlation analysis(r were-0.612
-0.611
-0.631
-0.582 respectively
P=0.000). GWR coefficients varied from-4.44 to 3.20. Northeast and southeast areas exhibited high influence on tuberculosis incidence and per capita GDP. Negative correlation distributed in a large area of 92% of the districts/counties.Conclusion:The influence of social economy on tuberculosis incidence varies across regions. Measure related to different regions on tuberculosis prevention and control should be developed.
