Abstract
This article seeks to identify factors associated with the incidence of tuberculosis and the spatial distribution of the disease in Olinda, Pernambuco, from 1991 to 2010. In order to study the factors associated with the disease, Poisson regression was applied and standardized morbidity ratios were utilized for the spatial exploratory analysis. Although a reduction in the average incidence of tuberculosis in Olinda was observed, the rate remains high in comparison with the national average. Mapping according to five-year periods suggests rate increases until 2005, with a decline between 2006 and 2010 and the persistence of high incidence in areas of greater socioeconomic need. The highest tuberculosis incidence rates were associated in each area with the proportions of illiteracy, of heads of household without income, of households lacking water supply and of older adults, as well as with the presence of cases of retreatment and of households with two or more new cases of tuberculosis. Incorporating a spatial component is key for the organization of health services and the planning of epidemiological surveillance for tuberculosis.

Se buscó identificar los factores asociados a la incidencia de tuberculosis
y a la distribución espacial de la enfermedad en Olinda, Pernambuco, entre 1991 y
2010. Para el estudio de los factores asociados a la enfermedad se aplicó la regresión de
Poisson y se utilizó la razón de morbilidad estandarizada para el análisis exploratorio
espacial. Si bien se observó una reducción en la incidencia media de tuberculosis en
Olinda, la tasa se mantiene alta comparada con la media nacional. El mapeo por quinquenios sugiere aumentos hasta 2005, con una caída entre 2006 y 2010, además de la
persistencia de alta incidencia en áreas con mayores necesidades socioeconómicas. Las
mayores incidencias de tuberculosis estuvieron asociadas a la proporción de analfabetos,
de jefes de familia sin ingresos, de domicilios sin abastecimiento de agua, de adultos
mayores, a la presencia de más de un caso de retratamiento en el sector censal, y a los
domicilios con más de un caso nuevo de tuberculosis. Se concluye que es necesario
incorporar el componente espacial a la organización de los servicios de salud y la planificación de la vigilancia epidemiológica de la tuberculosis.
