Abstract
The objective of the study: to assess the prevalence of latent tuberculous infection (LTI) and risk of its development in the inmates servicing their sentence in a penal colony of the Federal Penitentiary System, using the tools of statistics analysis
Subjects and Methods. 232 persons in the age from 18 to 67 (27; 225-35) years old were examined
Results. Exposure to a tuberculosis case in the past and duration of imprisonment are statistically confident risk factors of developing LTI The use of statistic tools allows predicting the chances of LTI
