Background: One area with high rates of positive sputum in West Muna district, high TB patients is in the Wuna Community Health Center work area. Positive smear pulmonary TB sufferers in 2015 recorded 25 positive cases, in 2016 as many as 41 positive cases, whereas in 2017 there was an increase from the previous year which was 45 positive cases. Objective: To find out the distribution of cases tuberculosis with positive sputum from 2015 to 2017, then to be related to population density. Methods: This type of research is observational with spatio temporal modeling, based on geographic information systems. Results: There has been a shift in the pattern of positive pulmonary tuberculosis pulmonary TB sufferers from 2015 to 2017. TB cases in Maperaha, Nihi, Bungkolo villages have been concentrated in the same area for three years, as well as Waulai Village during 2016 and 2017. In Wuna Village. In 2015 and 2016 cases of tuberculosis were still concentrated around the same area, but differed in 2017, the concentration of cases shifted to the west. Conclusion: Cases of tuberculosis with positive sputum in the working area of Wuna Health Center from 2015-2017 have increased.
Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Transmission occurs when a TB patient coughs or sneezes, germs are spread into the air in the form of phlegm droplets (droplet nuclei). This study used data from the Wuna Community Health Service Center, West Muna District. Data on AFB+ pulmonary TB cases were obtained from the health center from 2015 to 2017. In conclusion, AFB+ pulmonary TB cases from 2015 to 2017 fluctuated: in 2015 the number of AFB+ pulmonary TB was 40 cases, in 2016 it decreased to only 28 cases, while in 2017 it increased to 43 cases. The majority of patients with AFB+ pulmonary TB cases in the Wuna Community Health Service Center working area were in the age range of 45-54 years.

Climate has an impact on the development of mosquito borne diseases, especially lymphatic filariasis. Erratic climate change can certainly cause a bad temperature in the natural environment and disturb human health. In this article, a survey of the impact climate change on filariasis. Materials or methods use review literature search by searching through emerald journals, journal journalists, journal proquests, and Pubmed. The keywords “climate change”, “filariasis disease transmitted through mosquito borne diseases” were searched with various literature or reference articles. Results: From 30 literature collected, 18 articles were excluded because they had no correlation, while 12 articles were included and met the inclusion criteria. The reviewed literature shows that, most of the researchers have been carried out in developed countries, and presumption of the effect of climate metamorphosis on diseases spread by the Aedes Aegypti SP, Anopheles SP, Culex sp and Mansonia. Mosquitoes. Which is due to the following uncertainties: 1. Uncertainty about the spread of disease through climate change and poor environmental sanitation, 2. Uncertainty through behavior between the indirect relationship between climate and human health, 3. Uncertainty about the relationship between climate and disease which is transmitted through the intermediary mosquito borne disease.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
