title: [Comparative analysis of tuberculosis morbidity trends in the penitentiary and civil health care systems of the Udmurt Republic over 10 years].
abstract: Pulmonary tuberculosis morbidity trends were comparatively analyzed in the penitentiary and civil health care systems of the Udmurt Republic (UR) over 10 years (1996-2005). Two periods were identified in the course of a tuberculous process. In the first period (1996-2000), the increase in pulmonary tuberculosis morbidity rates in the UR penitentiary system was 3 times greater than the republican rates, the rise in this index in the UR penitentiary system being 25.3 times higher than that in the civil health system. In the second period (2001-2005), the UR penitentiary system was marked by a good tendency towards the stabilization of tuberculosis morbidity rates. At the same time, in the UR civil health care system, there is a further increase in tuberculosis morbidity rates in the population, although it occurs more slowly.
