Abstract excerpt
Bedaquiline (BDQ) has shown efficacy in shortening treatment duration and enhancing treatment success rates for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB), thereby prompting widespread adoption. However, resistance to BDQ has emerged. This study aimed to identify genetic characteristics associated with decreased susceptibility to BDQ, using a public database to aid in the detection of resistant strains....
