Includes bibliographical references. We hypothesized that the increased burden of TB disease among young females in Cape Town is primarily due to HIV infection in this age group. During 2009, City of Cape Town TB clinics prospectively collected routine notification data on 29,478 new TB cases. The objectives of this analysis were to describe the 2009 Cape Town TB case population by gender, age, and HIV; explore associations between gender, clinical characteristics, and HIV in TB cases; and estimate age-specific TB notification rates by gender and HIV. 2015-01-04T14:40:12Z 2015-01-04T14:40:12Z 2013 Master Thesis Masters MPH http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11288 eng application/pdf Department of Public Health and Family Medicine Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town |
