Abstract (English): Tuberculosis is an infectious and transmissible disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, also known as Koch's bacillus. The disease primarily affects the lungs (pulmonary form), but it can affect other organs and/or systems. The objective is to describe the epidemiological aspects of pulmonary tuberculosis in the Northeast region of Brazil between 2018 and 2023. This is a descriptive, retrospective, cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach. The data were extracted from the Department of Informatics of the National Health System (Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde, DATASUS-Brazil)/Ministry of Health (Ministério da Saúde, MS) available on the website of the DATASUS. The number of hospitalizations for pulmonary tuberculosis decreased from 2018 to 2023, while the number of deaths generated a slight increase (3,243 vs. 2,567 and 236 vs. 255, respectively). Analyzing the last year of the study, males had higher percentages of hospitalization and deaths (73.7% and 78.4%, respectively). Our results showed that the number of hospitalizations decreased in northeastern Brazil, but there was a small increase in mortality during the study period. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A doença afeta principalmente os pulmões (forma pulmonar), mas pode acometer outros órgãos e/ou sistemas. O objetivo é descrever os aspectos epidemiológicos da tuberculose pulmonar na região Nordeste do Brasil entre 2018 e 2023. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo, retrospectivo, transversal, com abordagem quantitativa. Os dados foram extraídos do Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde (DATASUS-Brasil)/Ministério da Saúde (MS) disponíveis no site do DATASUS. O número de internações por tuberculose pulmonar diminuiu de 2018 a 2023, enquanto o número de óbitos gerou um ligeiro aumento (3.243 vs. 2.567 e 236 vs. 255, respectivamente). Analisando o último ano do estudo, os homens apresentaram maiores percentuais de hospitalização e óbitos (73,7% e 78,4%, respectivamente). Nossos resultados mostraram que o número de hospitalizações diminuiu no nordeste do Brasil, mas houve um pequeno aumento na mortalidade durante o período do estudo. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
