Abstract

Tuberculosis increases as TB-HIV cases increase; it is caused by knowledge, unhealthy behavior, increasing poverty, TB drug resistance, and to sociodemographic and environmental problems. This study aimed to analyse individual and environmental risk factors for the incidence of tuberculosis. This type of research is an observational analysis of a population of the Tinambung community using a case-control study design carried out in the working area of the Tinambung Health Center. With a sample of 156 people (76 cases and 76 controls), the instruments used were questionnaires and lighting and humidity measurements. Cases are tuberculosis sufferers, and controls are non-tuberculosis sufferers.
