The Epidemiology of first and second-line drug-resistance Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex common species: Evidence from selected TB treatment initiating centers in Ethiopia

Biniyam Dagne et al.

Summary: The study found high frequencies of drug resistance to first and second-line anti-TB drugs. Determining the drug-resistance pattern of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex is important for programmatic management of drug-resistant TB in Ethiopia. The identified circulating Pre-XDR and XDR cases in this study are alarming for the tuberculosis control program in the country.

Frequency and patterns of first- and second-line drug resistance-conferring mutations in Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolated from pulmonary tuberculosis patients in a cross-sectional study in Tigray Region, Ethiopia

Letemichael Negash Welekidan et al.

Summary: The study investigated the frequency and patterns of drug resistance-conferring mutations in Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from pulmonary TB patients in Tigray Region, Ethiopia. High rates of mutations conferring resistance to rifampicin, isoniazid, and fluoroquinolones were observed, with a significant number of unknown mutations detected in rpoB, katG, and inhA genes. Regular drug resistance surveillance and expanded testing facilities are crucial for preventing the spread of drug-resistant TB in the community.

Summary: This study in the Republic of Congo implemented molecular tools to diagnose MDR and XDR-TB among presumptive tuberculosis patients. Results showed a high rate of rifampicin resistance and the presence of extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis in new patients, highlighting the need for further studies on TB drug resistance in the country.

Predictors of Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis among High-Risk Population Diagnosed under National Program Conditions in the Littoral Region, Cameroon

Teyim Pride Mbuh et al.

Summary: This study investigated drug resistant-TB among bacteriologically diagnosed cases in the Littoral region of Cameroon and found a low incidence with a declining trend over the years, possibly due to the introduction of early detection technology. Age, marital status, incarceration, and contact with TB cases were identified as predictors of drug resistant-TB.

Molecular characterization of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis against levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, bedaquiline, linezolid, clofazimine, and delamanid in southwest of China

Huiwen Zheng et al.

Summary: This study investigated the drug susceptibility and genetic characteristics of MDR-TB isolates in southwest China. It found that levofloxacin and moxifloxacin had the highest resistance rates, while bedaquiline had the lowest. The study provided evidence for the effectiveness of new anti-TB drugs in China for treating MDR-TB.

Assessment of burden of drug-resistant tuberculosis at a tertiary care centre in northern India: a prospective single centre cohort study

Richa Misra et al.

Summary: A study at a tertiary care center in northern India found that about 21.6% of patients with TB were rifampicin monoresistant, with higher resistance rates in pulmonary samples compared to extrapulmonary samples. Among 62 cases tested for second-line drugs, nearly 80% were resistant to FQs, with 11 cases being extensively drug resistant.

Resistance to Second-Line Anti-TB Drugs in Cambodia: A Phenotypic and Genetic Study

Sokleaph Cheng et al.

Summary: This study is the first to describe SLD resistance in Cambodia, showing that the proportion of XDR and pre-XDR isolates remains low but is increasing, with a risk of transmission. Genotypic results indicate that the Beijing family is mainly involved in pre-XDR and XDR isolates, highlighting the need for rapid diagnostic and treatment interventions.

Summary: The study aimed to determine the drug resistance pattern of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex in Oromia Region of Ethiopia. Results showed that the proportion of multidrug resistance is above the WHO estimate for the country and is associated with treatment history and poor nutritional status.

Prevalence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistant to bedaquiline and delamanid in China

Wencong He et al.

Summary: This study retrospectively analyzed drug susceptibility testing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis without prior exposure to new anti-TB drugs, and found low resistance rates to delamanid, bedaquiline, linezolid, and clofazimine but higher rates in multidrug-resistant TB patients. Additionally, some extensively drug-resistant TB isolates showed resistance to delamanid and linezolid. Phylogenetic analysis revealed recent transmission of resistant strains in some cases. Detection of resistance to new anti-TB drugs underscores the need for intensive surveillance before widespread use.
