Abstract :

Abstract Tuberculosis (TB) is an airborne infectious disease caused by organisms of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. Although primarily a pulmonary pathogen, M. tuberculosis can cause disease in almost any part of the bodyBased on the immunological mechanism involved, a shared dysregulation of immune responses in COVID-19 and TB has been found, suggesting a dual risk posed by co-infection worsening COVID-19 severity and favouring TB disease progression.The results of our study are as follows:Prevalence of TB Infection in Thi-Qar Province during 2022-2023 According to Infection Type .TB infection was active infection during 2022 356 (81.84%)In the same hand, high active TB infection in 2023 was active infection 433 (77.18%).Prevalence of TB Infection in Thi-Qar Province during 2022-2023 According to Months of Infections: was recorded the high TB infection in 2022 was during October.In the other hand, the high TB infection in 2023 was during July while the lowest TB infection was in September in both years.Prevalence of Active TB Infection in Thi-Qar Province during 2022-2023 According to Months of Infections:was recorded the high active TB infection in 2022 was during October, while the lowest active TB infection was in February and September. In the other hand, the high active TB infection in 2023 was during August, while the lowest active TB infection was in October. Prevalence of Active Pulmonary TB Infection According to Months of Infections: was recorded the high pulmonary active TB infection in 2022 was during May, while the lowest active pulmonary TB infection was in September . In the other hand, the high active pulmonary TB infection in 2023 was during August , while the lowest active pulmonary TB infection was in June .Prevalence of Active Out-pulmonary TB Infection:was recorded the high out-pulmonary active TB infection in 2022 was during October, while the lowest active out-pulmonary TB infection was in August. In the other hand, the high active out-pulmonary TB infection in 2023 was during July , while the lowest active out-pulmonary TB infection was in September. Prevalence of Passive TB Infection :was recorded the high passive TB infection in 2022 was during February, while the lowest passive TB infection was in both May and December Iin contrast, the high passive TB infection in 2023 were during both February and Marich,while the lowest passive TB infection was in September in addition, the study not recorded passive infection during April.The current results were noted among 435 recent TB infection during 2022, 10 (2.30%), scored recurrent TB infection, and among 571 TB infection during 2023, 12 (2.10%).
