Mycobacterium tuberculosis spoligotypes and drug susceptibility pattern of isolates from tuberculosis patients in South-Western Uganda
BACKGROUND Determination of the prevalence and drug susceptibility of the M. tuberculosis strains is important in tuberculosis control. We determined the genetic diversity and susceptibility profiles of mycobacteria isolated from tuberculosis patients in Mbarara, South Western Uganda. METHODS We enrolled, consecutively; all newly diagnosed and previously treated smear-positive TB patients age...
متن کاملFrequency and Molecular Characterization of Rifampicin-Resistance in rpoB Region of Multiple Drug Resistance (MDR) Isolates from Tuberculosis Patients in Southern Endemic Region of Iran
The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency, location and type of rpoB gene mutations in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) collected from patients in the southern endemic region of Iran. Drug susceptibility testing was determined by using the BACTEC system and the center for diseases control’s (CDC) standard conventional proportional method. In 29 rifampicin-resistant MTB (85%) isolat...
متن کاملDrug resistance pattern and associated risk factors of tuberculosis patients in Iran\'s Central Province
Background: One of the fundamental issues of infectious disease treatment is drug resistance. The aim of the present study was to investigate the first-line anti-tuberculosis drug resistance rates and determine the risk factors related to multidrug resistant mycobacterium tuberculosis.Methods: From March 2011 to September 2012, mycobacterial strains were collected from one hundred fifteen diagn...
متن کاملMycobacterium tuberculosis spoligotypes and drug susceptibility pattern of isolates from tuberculosis patients in peri-urban Kampala, Uganda
BACKGROUND The poor peri-urban areas of developing countries with inadequate living conditions and a high prevalence of HIV infection have been implicated in the increase of tuberculosis (TB). Presence of different lineages of Mycobacterium tuberculosis has been described in different parts of the world. This study determined the predominant strain lineages that cause TB in Rubaga division, Kam...
متن کاملEvaluation of Gene Mutations Involved in Drug Resistance in Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Strains Derived from Tuberculosis Patients in Mazandaran, Iran, 2013
Drug resistance (especially multiple drug resistance) in Mycobacterium tuberculosis makes global concerns in treatment and control of tuberculosis. Rapid diagnosis of drug resistant strains of the bacteria has vital importance in the prognosis of the disease. The aim of this study was to identify the mutations responsible for drug resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains derived from pa...
