Abstract

Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a critical global health challenge, with Indonesia ranking second in global TB burden. This study examines factors influencing TB incidence across Indonesian provinces and applies clustering to guide targeted interventions aligned with TB eradication goals by 2030. Specifically, these findings inform Indonesia’s End TB 2030 roadmap by identifying provincial heterogeneity that necessitates differentiated resource allocation and strengthened health governance frameworks. Methods: This ecological time-series study design analyzed data from 34 Indonesian provinces (2020–2022), including TB cases, healthcare services, HIV cases, smoking prevalence, food management places, and public facilities. Descriptive statistics summarized variable distribution, while panel data regression identified key factors using multicollinearity checks, model selection, and assumption testing. Fuzzy Possibilistic C-Means (FPCM) clustering grouped provinces based on similarity characteristics. Results: TB cases rose from 10,351 in 2020 to 21,303 in 2022. This study underscores the multifaceted factors influencing TB incidence in Indonesia. Significant factors included healthcare services (?1 = -8.37), HIV cases (?2 = 13.76), smoking prevalence (?3 = 905.32), food management places (?4 = 1.62), and public facilities (?5 = 1.11). This study proves that TB is not only influenced by health factors but also by non-health factors. Fuzzy clustering using the FPCM identified three clusters based on their possibilistic membership degrees: Cluster 3, with high HIV prevalence and public facilities, requiring urgent action; Cluster 2, needing improved healthcare and smoking reduction; and Cluster 1, with moderate challenges. Conclusions: Health and environmental factors significantly influence TB incidence. Addressing cluster-specific needs, such as enhancing healthcare, reducing HIV and smoking prevalence, and improving public health standards, is essential for TB control. Future studies should expand variables and periods to deepen insights.

Abstract

Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a critical public health issue, particularly in high-incidence regions like Aceh Province, Indonesia. This study aimed to estimate the Relative Risk (RR) and analyze significant differences in the temporal distribution of TB cases across Aceh Province. Methods: A time-series ecological study was conducted using TB case and population data from 23 districts/cities in Aceh Province between 2016 and 2022. Data were analyzed using R software, applying descriptive and inferential statistics. The Standardized Morbidity Ratio (SMR) method estimates RR and is categorized into five risk levels. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test assessed data normality, guiding the selection of statistical tests. The Friedman and Wilcoxon Signed-Rank tests examined differences in TB case distribution trends. Results: Significant spatial and temporal variations in TB risk were identified. Districts such as Banda Aceh (RR = 2.29–2.13) and Lhokseumawe (RR = 1.89–2.21) consistently demonstrated high RR from 2016 to 2022, reflecting persistent TB transmission. A general upward trend in TB cases was observed across districts, with significant spatial variation (p < 0.001), highlighting a worsening TB burden. Conclusions: The study emphasizes the urgent need for targeted public health interventions tailored to TB's unique spatial and temporal dynamics in Aceh Province, Indonesia. Applying SMR and robust statistical analyses provides valuable insights to inform localized TB control policies and strengthen management strategies in high-burden areas.
