title: [Tuberculosis morbidity trends among children, adolescents and young adults in Uzbekistan].
abstract: After a declining period by the mid-1980s and its stabilization in 1985-1995, the morbidity rates of tuberculosis in Uzbekistan increased in 1996 by 20.7% as compared to 1995, by 24% among children in the past decade, and 2 times among adolescents and young individuals aged under 30 years within 5 years. The rise of mortality rates is accompanied by aggravation of the clinical forms of the tuberculosis cases detected. The goal-oriented examinations of populations at risk of the disease in 14 districts of the Republic indicated a 1.5-fold increase in total mortality rates, followed by an upward tendency.
