In 2023, the Tuberculosis (TB) case detection rate in China stood at a certain baseline. From 2024 onwards, the data forecasts a concerning downward trend, with the detection rate decreasing from 59 in 2024 to 50 by 2028. This represents a consistent year-on-year decline, averaging around 3-4% annually. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this five-year span emphasizes a significant negative trajectory in detection performance.

Future trends to watch for include:

Technological advancements in diagnostic tools that could reverse the declining detection rates.
Policy changes and healthcare investments focusing on TB detection and treatment.
Potential impacts of public health campaigns on increasing awareness and testing rates.
