dc.descriptionThe objective of this study was to analyze potential epidemiological indicators for NCC and epilepsy, for a better understanding of the epidemiological distribution of these diseases in Ecuador. For which, information about hospitalized cases of NCC and epilepsy, from 2005 to 2015, was collected, and their relationship with potentials explanatory variables and epidemiologic indicators was analyzed. Data was taken from projections and back projections of the national population census from 2010. Linear regressions were performed for relative values (incidence) and Poisson regressions for the absolute values (number of cases). A highly significant relationship between NCC and epilepsy was found (p less than 0,001) for both absolute and relative values), evidencing that in Ecuador both conditions are closely related. Also, it was evidenced that the number of NCC and epilepsy cases increases in highlands and in areas where the temperature decreases (p less than 0,001). On the other hand, socioeconomic factors that indicate urbanization, were significant for both NCC and epilepsy (p less than 0,05 for absolute values) indicating a greater diagnosis of both diseases in urban areas. Among them stand out: the presence of a hygienic service, a system for garbage elimination by a collector car, water received from the public network and presence of people with a primary and superior level of education. Similar results were found in data of the place where the patients were treated and their place of residence, evidencing a migration from endemic rural areas to urban areas. The results obtained in this study are very useful to understand the epidemiological behavior of NCC in Ecuador and for the creation or implementation of control strategies for taeniasis/cysticercosis complex in the county.en
