| Summary: | The authors analyze the epidemic situation associated with tuberculosis concurrent with HIV infection in the subjects of the Siberian Federal District (SFD) in 2010-2012. There was a further overall (1.4-fold) increase in the detection of coinfection in the district; at the same time the rate of its increase decreased as compared to the previous years. In spite of the lower incidence of tuberculosis in SFD in the years under study, the proportion of patients of HIV-associated tuberculosis increased in the structure of new cases. No stabilization of the epidemics of HIV infection makes unfavorable the prognosis of further spread of tuberculosis concurrent with HIV infection. The timely detection of patients with HIV infection, as well as antiretroviral therapy and adequate tuberculosis chemoprophylactic coverage of patients with already detected HIV infection will be able to reduce the tense epidemic situation. |
