Faria, Mariana; Gonçalves, Rubia; Lopes, Livia; Bonfim, Rafaele; Silva, Diogo; Valença, Ana Beatriz; Rujula, Maria; Arcêncio, Ricardo AlexandreThis study aimed to analyse the repercussions of the COVID-19 pandemic on tuberculosis diagnosis indicators. A systematic review was conducted, examining studies published between 2020 and 2024 in Portuguese, English, or Spanish across five databases and Google Scholar. The search, performed in March 2024, led to the identification of 6,378 studies, of which 23 were included after an independent review of title...
Operational indicators for pulmonary tuberculosis diagnosis in people living wi...
Faria, Mariana; Andrade, Rubia; Leite, Karina; Bonfim, Rafaele; Valênça, Ana; Ramos, Antônio; Berra, Thais; Arcêncio, Ricardo; Netto, Antônio RuffinoTuberculosis (TB) in people living with HIV (PLHIV) is usually paucibacillary and the smear microscopy has limitations and may lead to high proportions of non-confirmed pulmonary tuberculosis (NC-PTB). Despite culture being the reference method, it usually takes 6 to 8 weeks to produce the results. This study aimed to analyze the effect of a rapid molecular test (Xpert) in the confirmatory rate of PTB among PLH...

Rolim Scholze, Alessandro; Alves, Josilene; Zamboni Berra, Thaís; Lima dos Santos, Felipe; Vieira Ramos, Antônio; Lima de Freitas, GiselleA cross-sectional study using data from the Brazilian Notifiable Diseases Information System was carried out. TB cases confirmed from 2014 to 2018 in prisons located in Paraná, Brazil, were selected. The Prais-Winsten procedure was performed to identify time trends by calculating monthly rates and the percentage of monthly variation. The Seasonal-Trend by Loess decomposition method was used to verify the time s...
Risk-prone territories for spreading tuberculosis, temporal trends and their de...
Zamboni Berra, Thaís; Vieira Ramos, Antônio; Arroyo, Luiz Henrique; Delpino, Felipe; Almeida Crispim, Juliane; Mathias Alves, YanTo identify risk-prone areas for the spread of tuberculosis, analyze spatial variation and temporal trends of the disease in these areas and identify their determinants in a high burden city. An ecological study was carried out in Ribeirão Preto, São Paulo, Brazil. The population was composed of pulmonary tuberculosis cases reported in the Tuberculosis Patient Control System between 2006 and 2017. Seasonal Tren...
Impact of COVID-19 on Tuberculosis Indicators in Brazil: A Time Series and Spat...
Zamboni Berra, Thaís; Ramos, Antônio; Alves, Yan; Tavares, Reginaldo; Fehr Tartaro, Ariela; Nascimento, Murilo; Moura, Heriederson; Delpino, FilipeWe aimed to visualize and classify the time series of COVID-19, tuberculosis (TB) notification, and TB outcomes (cure, treatment abandonment, and death), verify the impact of the new coronavirus pandemic on these indices in Brazil, and verify the presence of spatial autocorrelation between COVID-19 and TB. Methods: This was an ecological time series study that considered TB and COVID-19 cases. Seasonal Trend De...

Giacomet, Clovis; Souza Santos, Marcio; Zamboni Berra, Thaís; Mathias Alves, Yan; Seles Alves, Luana; Paulino da Costa, Fernanda; Vieira Ramos, AntônioAvaliar a tendência temporal da incidência da tuberculose após a implementação do teste rápido molecular, identificar se a tuberculose apresenta variação sazonal e classificar o território de acordo com a densidade de casos e as áreas de risco em Macapá-AP. MÉTODOS: Estudo ecológico composto por casos de tuberculose registrados no SINAN entre 2001 e 2017. Foi utilizado o teste Prais-Winsten para classificar a t...

Andrade, Hamilton; Gomes, Dulce; Ramos, Antônio; Arroyo, Luiz; Santos Neto, Marcelino; Palha, Pedro; Fiorati, Regina; Fronteira, Inês; Monroe, AlineThe aim of this study was to describe the temporal trend of tuberculosis cases according to sex and age group and evidence the level of disease before the Covid-19 pandemic in a TB high endemic city
Temporal trends in areas at risk for concomitant tuberculosis in a hyperendemic...
Inomata Bruce, Alexandre; Zamboni Berra, Thaís; Lima dos Santos, Felipe; Mathias Alves, Yan; Limirio Souza, Ludmilla; Vieira Ramos, AntônioThis ecological study was performed in the municipality of Manaus, in northern Brazil. The population comprised cases with concomitant pulmonary and extrapulmonary TB, registered on the Notifiable Diseases Information System (SINAN), between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2018. For risk cluster detection, spatial and spatiotemporal scanning statistical techniques were used. The Spatial Variation in Temporal T...
