Abstract

This study examines socioeconomic and spatial factors and its influences on the outcomes of environmental-health through “multi-drug resistance tuberculosis†(MDR-TB) treatment regimes in China. For this purpose, a survival analysis is conducted by applying “multivariable Cox Proportional Hazard model†on secondary data starts from 2010 to 2019. The data set is consisting of six hundred and fifty five (655) TB patients from different hospitals of China. The findings of this study indicate us that there is no alteration in patient survival rates between the two treatment departments, hospital and ambulatory care. The spatial characteristics of time expenditure and medical expenditure are significantly correlated with “supporting distance bias methods†and “environmental health results†. On the other side, travel expenditures and male gender results show negatively associated with the “environmental-health outcome†. This study reveals with these remarks that Ministry of Health, China should take serious actions to control MDR-TB and launch a comprehensive policy with the help of WHO recommendation.
