Objective To analyze the reported incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis(TB)in a university and provide a reference for preventing and controlling TB on campus. Methods Information on reported cases of pulmonary tuberculosis in a university in Anhui was retrospectively collected from 2012 to 2022,and descriptive statistical analysis was performed on the reported incidence and case incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis in the university. Results A total of 128 cases of TB were reported in a university in Anhui from 2012 to 2022,and the average annual reported incidence rate of TB among students and staff was 35.43/100 000 and 30.72/100 000,respectively,the difference was not statistically significant (χ²=0.370, P=0.543).The reported incidence rate of TB among students at the university showed a downward trend during 2012-2022 (χ² _trend =20.288,P<0.001).There was no statistical difference in the reported incidence rate of TB among staff between years (χ²_trend=1.875,P=0.173).There was no statistical difference in the composition ratio between the different modes of detection of TB cases among students and staff (χ²=2.572,P=0.439).22.64% of student and 63.64% of staff cases are delayed in seeking medical treatment. Conclusion The reported incidence rate of pulmonary tuberculosis among students in a university in Anhui showed the declining trend year by year and the prevention and control of pulmonary tuberculosis among students has achieved certain results.It is necessary to further strengthen the prevention and control of pulmonary tuberculosis among university staff.
