Transmission of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates between Finnish- and foreign-born cases, 2014–2021: A molecular epidemiological study
Background
Data on the molecular epidemiology and transmission of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) in low-incidence settings with immigration from high-incidence settings is limited.
Method
We included 115 drug-resistant (DR) MTB isolates with whole-genome sequencing data isolated in Finland between 2014 and 2021. Potential transmission clusters were identified using a threshold of 12 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Highly related clusters were identified using a threshold of 5 SNPs.
Result
Of the 115 DR MTB isolates, 31 (27.0%) isolates were from Finnish-born cases and 84 (73.0%) were from foreign-born cases. The proportion of multidrug-resistant (MDR) MTB isolates (30/84, 35.7%) from foreign-born cases was higher than that of MDR MTB isolates from Finnish-born cases (8/31, 25.8%). Lineage 2 (40/115, 34.8%) and lineage 4 (40/115, 34.8%) were the most prevalent lineages. A total of 25 (21.7%) isolates were classified into eight potential transmission clusters (≤12 SNPs). Furthermore, five highly related clusters (≤5 SNPs) were identified, including three DR MTB isolates from Finnish-born cases and 14 DR isolates from foreign-born cases.
Conclusion
The risk of DR MTB transmission between Finnish- and foreign-born persons is not negligible. Further research on clustering analysis in drug-susceptible MTB is worth to inform tuberculosis management and control in low-incidence settings with increasing immigration.
期刊介绍:
Tuberculosis is a speciality journal focusing on basic experimental research on tuberculosis, notably on bacteriological, immunological and pathogenesis aspects of the disease. The journal publishes original research and reviews on the host response and immunology of tuberculosis and the molecular biology, genetics and physiology of the organism, however discourages submissions with a meta-analytical focus (for example, articles based on searches of published articles in public electronic databases, especially where there is lack of evidence of the personal involvement of authors in the generation of such material). We do not publish Clinical Case-Studies.
Areas on which submissions are welcomed include:
-Clinical TrialsDiagnostics-
Antimicrobial resistance-
Immunology-
Leprosy-
Microbiology, including microbial physiology-
Molecular epidemiology-
Non-tuberculous Mycobacteria-
Pathogenesis-
Pathology-
Vaccine development.
This Journal does not accept case-reports.
The resurgence of interest in tuberculosis has accelerated the pace of relevant research and Tuberculosis has grown with it, as the only journal dedicated to experimental biomedical research in tuberculosis.
