Pathogen genotypes and host phenotypes of Mycobacterium abscessus pulmonary disease in Taiwan

Background: Mycobacterium abscessus (Mabs) pulmonary disease (Mabs-PD) is difficult to treat, particularly in subspecies abscessus (Mabs-a), usually harboring macrolide-resistant sequevars, unlike subspecies massiliense (Mabs-m). The relationship between Mabs genetic variants and clinical features r...
