We calculated population-based tuberculosis (TB) rates among HIV-infected persons in New York City from 2001 through 2005 using data from the city's TB and HIV/AIDS surveillance registries, and we examined those rates using linear trend tests and incidence rate ratios (IRRs). HIV-infected individuals had 16 times the TB rate of a "non-HIV" population (HIV status negative or unknown ; IRR=16.0 ; 95% confidence interval=14.9,17.2). TB rates declined significantly among the US-born HIV-infected population (Ptrend<. but not among the foreign-born hiv-infected population such disparities must be addressed if further declines are to achieved.> |
