Distinguishing Relapse from Reinfection in Recurrent Tuberculosis: A Genomic and Epidemiologic Study in Brazil

2026-04-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Tuberculosis recurrence represents a substantial proportion of incident tuberculosis in many settings. Distinguishing between its mechanisms can inform public health interventions for prevention. <h4>Methods</h4> We conducted a retrospective study of individuals with multiple culture-confirmed TB episodes and paired isolates collected between 2012 and 2023 in Dourados and Campo Grande, Mato G...
