ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Objective To analyze the spatiotemporal pattern of tuberculosis incidence and its associated factors.

Methods:

Ecological study, which used tuberculosis notifications during 2001-2017 and as units of analysis the municipalities of the state of Ceará of the Notifiable Diseases Information System. Time pattern analysis techniques and geographically weighted regression were used.

Results:

The gross incidence rate in the state reached a peak of 226.1/100 thousand inhabitants with a significant decrease of 1.9% per year (95%CI −3.0-−0.7). The main clusters were identified in Fortaleza and its metropolitan region, as well as in the Sobral region. The socioeconomic indicators that were associated with the incidence were occupation in the agricultural sector and services, population in households with bathrooms and running water and vulnerable to poverty.

Conclusion:

There was a significant decrease in the incidence of the disease in the state of Ceará. The spatial clusters were mostly located in areas with high population and the indicators most related to the formation of spatial clusters were related to employment/income, housing and vulnerability.
RESUMO
RESUMO

Objetivo:

Analisar o padrão espaçotemporal da incidência da tuberculose e seus fatores associados.

Métodos:

Estudo ecológico, que utilizou as notificações de tuberculose ocorridas no período 2001-2017 nos municípios do estado do Ceará e registradas por meio do Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação. Foram utilizadas técnicas de análise de padrão temporal e regressão geograficamente ponderada.

Resultados:

A taxa de incidência bruta no estado atingiu valor máximo de 226,1/100 mil habitantes, com decréscimo significativo de 1,9% ao ano (intervalo de confiança — IC95% −3,0-−0,7). Os principais clusters foram identificados em Fortaleza e sua região metropolitana, assim como na região de Sobral. Os indicadores socioeconômicos que se mostraram associados à incidência foram ocupação no setor agropecuário e serviços, população em domicílios com banheiro e água encanada e vulneráveis à pobreza.

Conclusão:

Houve diminuição significativa da incidência da doença no estado do Ceará. Os clusters espaciais estiveram localizados, majoritariamente, em áreas com alto adensamento populacional, e os indicadores que mais se associaram à formação dos aglomerados espaciais estiveram relacionados a emprego/renda, moradia e vulnerabilidade.
