Childhood Tuberculosis in Mongolia: Trends and Estimates, 2010-2030.

Mongolia was listed among the 30 countries with a high tuberculosis burden in 2021. Approximately 10-11% of the tuberculosis cases are of children, which is higher than the global average (6.0%).

Determinants of life expectancy and clustering of provinces to improve life expectancy: an ecological study in Indonesia.

Background: Life expectancy acts as a population measure of the performance of healthcare systems. Regional disparities on life expectancy in Indonesia has been persisted and become a public health policy challenge. A systematic clustering of provinces can be a valuable alternative for organizing cooperation that aimed to increase life expectancy and reduce disparities.

Distribution trends of Indonesia's health care resources in the decentralization era.

Indonesia has been decentralized since 2001, and we evaluated the distribution trends of physicians, puskesmas (community health centers), hospitals, and hospital beds in 34 provinces in Indonesia for 2000 to 2014. Inequality index of Gini showed improvement of the distribution of physicians and decreased from 0.38 to 0.

Distribution of health care resources in Mongolia using the Gini coefficient.

Background: Attaining the perfect balance of health care resources is probably impracticable; however, it is possible to achieve improvements in the distribution of these resources. In terms of the distribution of health resources, equal access to these resources would make health services available to all people. The aim of this study was to compare the distributions of health care resources in urban, suburban, and rural areas of Mongolia.
