In a previous study [8], we showed that the burden of TB could be accurately predicted in rural environments of the Democratic Republic of the Congo by integrating historical disease notification, distance of villages to the nearest health care center, and proximity to mining activities.
Africa accounted for a quarter of all new TB cases worldwide in 2022 and has been at the center of many efforts to eradicate TB [1].

Tuberculosis (TB), a chronic infectious disease, has been endangering human health over the years. In Europe, in the 17th and 18th centuries, TB was known as the “white plague,” infecting almost 100% of the population and killing 25% of the population [1,2]. As one of the high-burden countries, Chinese TB control still needs to be strengthened [3]. Over the years, TB incidence has shown a downward trend year by year.

An estimated 10.6 million people (133 per 100,000 population) were diagnosed with tuberculosis (TB) in the year 2022 which is an increase from the 10.3 million new cases reported in 2021 [1]. The number of deaths caused by TB in 2022 is estimated to be about 1.3 million [1].

Tuberculosis (TB) is a significant public health problem and the second leading infectious killer after COVID-19 [1]. The World Health Organization has set a target in its “end TB strategy” to reduce TB deaths by 75% in 2025 and 90% in 2030 [2]. Tanzania is among the 30 countries with high TB burden and is estimated to have had a TB incidence of 208 per 100,000 persons and 1.3% of multidrug-resistant TB cases in 2021 [1]. In 2020, Tanzania reported that about 26,800 people died from TB [3].

Tuberculosis (TB) poses an escalating public health threat, particularly in lower- and middle-income countries [1]. The World Health Organization estimates that approximately one-fourth of the world's population has been infected with TB-causing bacteria [2], with 10.6 million individuals diagnosed with TB in 2021, leading to 1.6 million deaths [1].

In 2020, an estimated 10 million cases of tuberculosis (TB) were reported worldwide [1]. In the Republic of Korea (ROK), the number of notified TB cases had long remained stable without a decrease [2,3]; however, the number of notified TB cases has decreased significantly in the last decade following continuous nationwide efforts [4,5].

A review of national tuberculosis (TB) prevalence surveys conducted in Asia between 1990 and 2012 revealed that 40% to 60% of active TB cases are missed by routine TB signs and symptoms (TBSS) screening [1]. In Myanmar, the TB case detection rate through routine TBSS screening was reported to be 69% to 77% during the 2017 to 2019 period [2-4]. These figures highlight that nearly one-fourth of active TB cases remained undetected.

Because undiagnosed TB cases are the major challenge to TB control in Nigeria, any strategy that will identify ongoing TB transmission hot spots in the community is crucial for finding and treating missing TB cases. Electronic recording and reporting of TB are becoming adopted widely by the national TB control programs [8].

In this analysis, we describe cell phone ownership and use in a cohort of persons living with HIV, who are coinfected with latent tuberculosis (TB) in southwestern Uganda. We also describe the association between alcohol use and cell phone use. Alcohol use and HIV are prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa.
