Age-standardised mortality rates, total number of deaths resulting from tuberculosis, and relative proportion of tuberculosis to all death causes across Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa between 1990 and 2019 in HIV-negative populations (A, B and C) and HIV-positive populations (D, E and F).
(A) Y2 axis for India, South Africa and BRICS, (B) Y2 axis for India and China, (C) relative proportion indicated the proportion of all-cause deaths that come from tuberculosis, (D) Y2 axis for South Africa, (E) Y2 axis for India and South Africa, and (F) Y2 axis for South Africa.
We used two different scales to distinguish the developing trends of each country.
High-income Asia Pacific countries included Japan, Republic of Korea, Singapore, Brunei Darussalam.
ASMR: age-standardised mortality rate; Relative proportion: relative proportion to all communicable, maternal, neonatal, and nutritional diseases; BRICS: Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa; TB: tuberculosis; HIV: human immunodeficiency virus.
