Comportamiento clínico de la infección y enfermedad causada por micobacterias no tuberculosas en Latinoamérica
Reports of infection and/or disease caused by non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are becoming increasingly frequent. This scope review describes the epidemiological and clinical trend of infection/disease caused by NTM in Latin America. OVID MEDLINE, Embase and LILACS databases were explored for relevant articles. After filtering, we included 44 articles, representing an overall population of 2,826 subjects diagnosed with NTM infection and diseas…
