Popis: Primorsky Kray has one of the highest tuberculosis incidence in Russia and one of the highest HIV incidence among the regions of the Far Eastern Federal District. Understanding of interfacing mechanisms of two epidemics is necessary for planning tuberculosis control activities in the regions with high speed of increase and high prevalence of HIV infection. Applying this integrated approach allows detecting presence of such correlations when they are manifested on the population level during epidemic development. This interfaced epidemiological analysis of tuberculosis and HIV incidences resulted in concluding that current epidemic of tuberculosis is assessed as emergency and HIV epidemic as unstable. It has been proved that dissemination of HIV infection promotes tuberculosis epidemic in Primorsky Kray and mechanism of formation of tuberculosis and HIV incidences is interdependent.
