Sputum microbiota profiles of treatment-naïve TB patients in Uganda before and during first-line therapy

Scientific Reports, 2021
Information on microbiota dynamics in pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) in Africa is scarce. Here, we sequenced sputa from 120 treatment-naïve TB patients in Uganda, and investigated changes in microbiota of 30 patients with treatment-response follow-up ...
