Understanding host and pathogen factors that influence tuberculosis (TB) transmission can
inform strategies to eliminate the spread of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Determining …

To improve understanding of the factors influencing tuberculosis transmission and the role of
pathogen variation, we sequenced all available specimens from patients diagnosed over 15 …

Background Whole genome sequencing provides better delineation of transmission clusters
in Mycobacterium tuberculosis than traditional methods. However, its ability to reveal …

Background Understanding the transmission dynamics of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb)
could benefit the design of tuberculosis (TB) prevention and control strategies for refugee …

Combining genomic and geospatial data can be useful for understanding Mycobacterium
tuberculosis transmission in high-burden tuberculosis (TB) settings. We performed whole …

Genomic studies of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) might shed light on the
dynamics of its transmission, especially in high-burden settings, where recent outbreaks are …

Genomic epidemiology is routinely used worldwide to interrogate infectious disease
dynamics. Multiple computational tools exist that reconstruct transmission networks by …

Tuberculosis (TB) originating from expatriates that hail from high TB-burden countries is
hypothesized to play a role in continued TB transmission in Oman. Here, we used whole …

Objective Understanding transmission dynamics is useful for tuberculosis (TB) control. A
population-based molecular epidemiological study was conducted to determine TB …

Whole genome sequencing (WGS) is progressively being used to investigate the
transmission dynamics of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC). We used WGS …
