A Systematic Follow-Up of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Drug-Resistance and Associated Genotypic Lineages in the French Departments of the Americas over a Seventeen-Year Period
Figure 1
Total number of isolates, drug-resistant (includes MDR) and MDR isolates for the 19 most frequent spoligotypes (representing more than 55% of all isolates; /1199) in the three French Departments of Americas considering only new TB cases. (a) Total study sample; (b) Guadeloupe; (c) French Guiana; (d) Martinique. Note that asterisk denotes spoligotypes showing a significant association with resistance to first-line anti-TB drugs (odd ratio with 95% confidence interval: 7.9 (3.6–17.2); 3.8 (1.3–11.5); 8.4 (3.1–23.4); and 2.8 (1.1–7.4), resp., for SIT 20, 45, 46, and 64).
