Development of Tuberculosis Vulnerability Assessment Conceptual Framework Using Automatic Content Analysis

Stud Health Technol Inform. 2023 Jun 29:305:220-223. doi: 10.3233/SHTI230467.

Abstract

The tuberculosis prevention and control model needs to be explored. This study aimed to create a conceptual framework for measuring TB vulnerability to guide the prevention program's effectiveness. SLR method was employed, resulting in 1.060 articles being analyzed with ACA Leximancer 5.0 and facet analysis. The built framework consists of five components: risk of TB transmission, damage caused by TB, health care facility, the burden of TB, and awareness of TB. Future research is required to explore variables in each component to formulate the degree of TB vulnerability.

Keywords: Automatic content analysis; Tuberculosis; automatic knowledge; facet analysis.
