The correlation between EAPCs (2000–2017) and HDI in 2017 at a national level. a The EAPCs of death due to MDR-TB had a negative correlation with the HDI in 2017; b The EAPCs of DALYs due to MDR-TB had a negative correlation with the HDI in 2017. The correlation was calculated with Pearson correlation analysis. The circles represent countries that were available on HDI data, and the size of circle increases with the numbers in 2017 in the corresponding countries. MDR-TB: multidrug resistant tuberculosis; ASR: Age-standardized rate; EAPC: Estimated annual percentage change; HDI: Human development index
