Items corresponding to entire populations or subpopulations. Might be geographically or temporally temporally limited.

population

The yearly data from WHO includes information on drug-resistant tuberculosis, specifically focusing on drug resistant cases that have started treatment, confirmed cases, new cases, and previously treated cases from 2005 to 2023.

Drug resistant TB

a census of infectious disease control strategies put into place to reduce infection acquisitions that are part of an infection in an ecosystem.

control strategy census

Control Strategy

Information about diagnostic tests, results, including serology tests, PCR, and other tests

diagnostic tests

Tests

An organism of a particular biological taxon that is the site of reproduction of an organism of a different taxon.

host organism

Host

Homo sapiens

A chronic, recurrent infection caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Tuberculosis (TB) may affect almost any tissue or organ of the body with the lungs being the most common site of infection. The clinical stages of TB are primary or initial infection, latent or dormant infection, and recrudescent or adult-type TB. Ninety to 95% of primary TB infections may go unrecognized. Histopathologically, tissue lesions consist of granulomas which usually undergo central caseation necrosis. Local symptoms of TB vary according to the part affected; acute symptoms include hectic fever, sweats, and emaciation; serious complications include granulomatous erosion of pulmonary bronchi associated with hemoptysis. If untreated, progressive TB may be associated with a high degree of mortality. This infection is frequently observed in immunocompromised individuals with AIDS or a history of illicit IV drug use.

tuberculosis

Tuberculosis

A disease is a disposition (i) to undergo pathological processes that (ii) exists in an organism because of one or more disorders in that organism.

disease

Disease

A disease whose physical basis is an infectious disorder

infectious disease

Infectious Disease

One of the three domains of life (the others being Eukarya and ARCHAEA), also called Eubacteria. They are unicellular prokaryotic microorganisms which generally possess rigid cell walls, multiply by cell division, and exhibit three principal forms: round or coccal, rodlike or bacillary, and spiral or spirochetal.

Bacteria

A count of individuals in a population who meet the criteria of some case definition during some time interval.

count of disease cases

Case Count

A species of gram-positive, aerobic bacteria that produces TUBERCULOSIS in humans, other primates, CATTLE; DOGS; and some other animals which have contact with humans. Growth tends to be in serpentine, cordlike masses in which the bacilli show a parallel orientation.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis

A count of cases in a population that is the number of individuals who come to meet the criteria of some case definition during a proper part of a reference temporal interval.

incident case count

Incident Case Count

 A count of simulated or physical individuals in a population.

Population count

Population Count

An acute infectious disorder that is caused by gram positive or gram negative bacteria; representative examples include pneumococcal, streptococcal, salmonella, and meningeal infections.

bacterial infectious disease

Bacterial Infection

Vaccine preventable diseases are those infectious diseases that can be prevented by vaccination

vaccine-preventable Disease

Vaccine-Preventable Disease

drug treatment

Drug Treatment

Microbial mechanisms for protecting microorganisms against antimicrobial agents. 

Antimicrobial resistance

Antimicrobial Resistance

An organism of a particular biological taxon that is the bearer of an infectious dispositions towards an organism of a different particular biological taxon.

pathogen

Pathogen

The mechanisms, functions, activities, or processes exhibited by microorganisms, especially bacteria, to resist or to become tolerant to antibiotics.

Antibiotic Resistance

A data item that is an aggregate of other data items of the same type that have something in common. Averages and distributions can be determined for data sets.
