How has the municipal availability of the<i>GeneXpert</i><sup>®</sup><i>MTB/RIF</i>system affected the detection of drug-resistant tuberculosis in Brazil?

2023-03-09

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Objective</h4> To evaluate the association between the availability of GeneXpert ® MTB/RIF in municipalities and the proportion of people who have access to this diagnostic technology for tuberculosis (TB), as well as the resistance detected by the surveillance system in Brazil. <h4>Methods</h4> We analyzed 4,998 Brazilian municipalities that reported 432,937 new TB cases between 2015 and 202...
