Abstract

The drug resistance molecular characteristics of MDR/RR-TB were elucidated by genome-wide analysis, and risk factors for death by MDR/RR-TB were identified in combination with patient information. Cluster characteristics of MDR/RR-TB in the region were analyzed by genome-wide analysis, and risk factors for cluster transmission (recent transmission) were analyzed. These analyses provide reference for the prevention and treatment of MDR/RR-TB in Chongqing.
