[Impact of tuberculosis in penal labor facilities on the epidemiological situation in the Sverdlovsk region].
The unfavourable tuberculosis situation in the corrective labour facilities affects the main rates of tuberculosis in the region. Presently, the total registered cases of tuberculosis among prisoners are 36.7 times as high as those in the age-matched general population of the Sverdlovsk Region. The rates of relapses, incidence, death due to tuberculosis show 72.0-, 36.1-, and 10.4-fold increases, respectively. Almost every 10 persons from the labour corrective facilities suffer from active tuberculosis. In the past decade, the growth rates of main tuberculosis parameters in the corrective labour facilities were much higher (total tuberculosis morbidity by 2.1 times, relapses by 2.1 times, general morbidity by 1.7 times, and total tuberculosis mortality by 2.8 times) than those in the region's general population. Extrapulmonary tuberculosis was not virtually detected in the labour corrective facilities) due to the lack of special diagnostic methods.
