Area-level socioeconomic variables associated with territorial disparities in tuberculosis notification rates in metropolitan France: a Bayesian ecological analysis
Our findings suggest that TB notification rates are independently associated with material deprivation, such as unemployment and low income, as well as crowded settings, including overcrowded households and densely populated areas. Enhancing TB control in metropolitan France could involve targeted outreach programs for screening and treatment in materially deprived areas, characterized by high unemployment rates and low median incomes, and adopting a 'Health in All Policies' approach to address urban and household crowding.
