Abstract
The characteristics of tuberculosis (TB) patients related to a chain of recent TB
transmissions were investigated. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) isolates (120) were
genotyped using the restriction fragment length polymorphism-IS6110 (R), spacer
oligotyping (S) and mycobacterial interspersed repetitive units-variable number of
tandem repeats (M) methods. The MTB isolates were clustered and the clusters were
grouped according to the similarities of their genotypes. Spearman’s rank correlation
coefficients between the groups of MTB isolates with similar genotypes and those
patient characteristics indicating a risk for a pulmonary TB (PTB) chain transmission
were ana- lysed. The isolates showing similar genotypes were distributed as follows:
SMR (5%), SM (12.5%), SR (1.67%), MR (0%), S (46.67%), M (5%) and R (0%). The
remaining 35 cases were orphans. SMR exhibited a significant correlation (p <
0.05) with visits to clinics, municipalities and comorbidities (primarily diabetes
mellitus). S correlated with drug consumption and M with comorbidities. SMR is needed
to identify a social network in metropolitan areas for PTB transmission and S and M
are able to detect risk factors as secondary components of a transmission chain of
TB.
