We compared characteristics between inmate and non-inmate men aged 15\u201364 years. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Results: Of the 210976 total US TB cases, 3.8% (7820) were reported from correctional systems. Federal and state prison case rates were 29.4 and 24.2 cases per 100000 inmates, respectively, which were considerably higher than those in the noninmate population (6.7 per 100000 people). Inmates with TB were more likely to have at least 1 TB risk factor compared with noninmates (60.1% vs 42.0%, respectively) and to receive directly observed therapy (65.0% vs 41.0%, respectively); however, they were less likely to complete treatment (76.8% vs 89.4%, respectively). Among inmates, 58.9% completed treatment within 12 months compared with 73.2% of noninmates. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Conclusions: Tuberculosis case rates in prison systems remain higher than in the general population. Inmates with TB are less likely than noninmates to complete treatment. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2105\/ajph.2004.055442","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,9,26]],"date-time":"2005-09-26T20:13:33Z","timestamp":1127765613000},"page":"1800-1805","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":60,"title":["An Unanswered Health Disparity: Tuberculosis Among Correctional Inmates, 1993 Through 2003"],"prefix":"10.2105","volume":"95","author":[{"given":"Jessica R.","family":"MacNeil","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"At the time of the study, Jessica R.
