High within-host diversity found from direct genotyping on post-mortem tuberculosis specimens in a high-burden setting. Clin Microbiol Infect 2021; 27:1518.e5-1518.e9.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To characterize the clonal complexity in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) infections considering factors that help maximize the detection of coexisting strains/variants. METHODS Genotypic analysis by Mycobacterial Interspersed Repetitive-Unit-Variable-Number Tandem-Repeats (MIRU-VNTR) was performed directly on 70 biopsy specimens from two or more different tissues involving 28 tuberculosis cases diagnosed post-mortem in Mozambique, a country with a high tuberculosis burden. RESULTS Genotypic data from isolates collected from two or more tissues were obtained for 23 of the 28 cases (82.1%), allowing the analysis of within-patient diversity. MIRU-VNTR analysis revealed clonal diversity in ten cases (35.7%). Five cases showed allelic differences in three or more loci, suggesting mixed infection with two different strains. In half of the cases showing within-host diversity, one of the specimens associated with clonal heterogeneity was brain tissue. CONCLUSIONS Direct MTB genotyping from post-mortem tissue samples revealed a frequent within-host Mycobacterium tuberculosis diversity, including mixed and polyclonal infections. Most of this diversity would have been overlooked if only standard analysis of respiratory specimens had been performed.

Detection of Resistance to Fluoroquinolones and Second-Line Injectable Drugs Among Mycobacterium tuberculosis by a Reverse Dot Blot Hybridization Assay. Infect Drug Resist 2020; 13:4091-4104. [PMID: 33204126 PMCID: PMC7666996 DOI: 10.2147/idr.s270209] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2020] [Accepted: 10/07/2020] [Indexed: 01/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Reliable and timely determination of second-line drug resistance is essential for early initiation effective anti-tubercular treatment among multi-drug resistant (MDR) patients and blocking the spread of MDR and extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis. Molecular methods have the potency to provide accurate and rapid drug susceptibility results. We aimed to establish and evaluate the accuracy of a reverse dot blot hybridization (RDBH) assay to simultaneously detect the resistance of fluoroquinolones (FQs), kanamycin (KN), amikacin (AMK), capreomycin (CPM) and second-line injectable drugs (SLIDs) in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Methods We established and evaluated the accuracy of the RDBH assay by comparing to the phenotypic drug susceptibility testing (DST) and sequencing in 170 M. tuberculosis, of which 94 and 27 were respectively resistant to ofloxacin (OFX) and SLIDs. Results The results show that, compared to phenotypic DST, the sensitivity and specificity of the RDBH assay for resistance detection were 63.8% and 100.0% for OFX, 60.0% and 100.0% for KN, 61.5% and 98.1% for AMK, 50.0% and 99.3% for CPM, and 55.6% and 100% for SLIDs, respectively; compared to sequencing, the sensitivity and specificity of the RDBH assay were 95.2% and 100.0% for OFX, 93.8% and 100.0% for SLIDs or KN (both based on mutations in rrs 1400 region and eis promoter), and 91.6% and 100.0% for AMK or CPM (both based on mutations in rrs 1400 region), respectively. The turnaround time of the RDBH assay was 7 h for testing 42 samples. Conclusion Our data suggested that compared to sequencing, the RDBH assay could serve as a rapid and reliable method for testing the resistance of M. tuberculosis against OFX and SLIDs, enabling early administration of appropriate treatment regimens among MDR tuberculosis patients.

Tuberculosis Case Finding With Combined Rapid Point-of-Care Assays (Xpert MTB/RIF and Determine TB LAM) in HIV-Positive Individuals Starting Antiretroviral Therapy in Mozambique. Clin Infect Dis 2018; 65:1878-1883. [PMID: 29020319 DOI: 10.1093/cid/cix641] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2017] [Accepted: 07/20/2017] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Tuberculosis is a major health concern in several countries, and effective diagnostic algorithms for use in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients are urgently needed. Methods At prescription of antiretroviral therapy, all patients in 3 Mozambican health centers were screened for tuberculosis, with a combined approach: World Health Organization (WHO) 4-symptom screening (fever, cough, night sweats, and weight loss), a rapid test detecting mycobacterial lipoarabinomannan in urine (Determine TB LAM), and a molecular assay performed on a sputum sample (Xpert MTB/RIF; repeated if first result was negative). Patients with positive LAM or Xpert MTB/RIF results were referred for tuberculosis treatment. Results Among 972 patients with a complete diagnostic algorithm (58.5% female; median CD4 cell count, 278/μL; WHO HIV stage I, 66.8%), 98 (10.1%) tested positive with Xpert (90, 9.3%) or LAM (34, 3.5%) assays. Compared with a single-test Xpert strategy, dual Xpert tests improved case finding by 21.6%, LAM testing alone improved it by 13.5%, and dual Xpert tests plus LAM testing improved it by 32.4%. Rifampicin resistance in Xpert-positive patients was infrequent (2.5%). Among patients with positive results, 22 of 98 (22.4%) had no symptoms at WHO 4-symptom screening. Patients with tuberculosis diagnosed had significantly lower CD4 cell counts and hemoglobin levels, more advanced WHO stage, and higher HIV RNA levels. Fifteen (15.3%) did not start tuberculosis treatment, mostly owing to rapidly deteriorating clinical conditions or logistical constraints. The median interval between start of the diagnostic algorithm and start of tuberculosis treatment was 7 days. Conclusions The prevalence of tuberculosis among Mozambican HIV-positive patients starting antiretroviral therapy was 10%, with limited rifampicin resistance. Use of combined point-of-care tests increased case finding, with a short time to treatment. Interventions are needed to remove logistical barriers and prevent presentation in very advanced HIV/tuberculosis disease.
