Spatial distributions and trends of PTB cases and reporting facilities from 2005 to 2017. Panels show annual mean reported (a) active and (b) smear-positive PTB incidence rate by county (prefectures, denoted by heavy border lines, are labeled with names in panel a); (c) number of reporting facilities per 100,000 persons in 2017; yearly growth rate of (d) active and (e) smear-positive PTB incidence estimated by linear regression from 2005 to 2017; and (f) yearly growth rate of number of reporting facilities per 100,000 persons from 2005 to 2017. Light lines represent county boundaries. Chengdu, the capital city, is delineated in red. PTB, pulmonary tuberculosis; Smear+, smear-positive; inc., incidence; rep. Fac., reporting facility. Publically available administrative boundaries used in this visualization were obtained from China’s National Earth System Science Data Sharing Infrastructure [24]
