Population-based investigation of fluoroquinolones resistant tuberculosis in rural eastern China.

Tuberculosis (Edinburgh, Scotland) - 1 May 2011

Hu Yi, Mathema Barun, Wang Weibing, Kreiswirth Barry, Jiang Weili, Xu Biao

Abstract excerpt

Empirical use of fluoroquinolones (FQ) to treat a variety of bacterial infections may inadvertently select for FQ-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis(MTB), especially in rural China where the use of FQ in treating infections has not been standardized. Here we determine the prevalence and describe the transmission of FQ-resistant MTB in two rural counties in eastern China through a combination of...
