英文摘要Tuberculosis is a major public health problem in Ethiopia. The aims of this study were (i) to investigate the recovery rate of M. tuberculosis from smear positive single morning sputum specimens subjected to long-term storage at -20°C, (ii) to assess the level and risk factors for first- and second-line anti-TB drug resistance, (iii) to evaluate the performance of the GenoType®MTBDRplus and GenoType®MTBDRsl assays for drug susceptibility testing compared to the BacT/ALERT 3D system as reference method, (iv) to analyze the frequency of gene mutations associated with resistance to isoniazid (INH), rifampicin (RMP) and ethambutol (EMB) among M. tuberculosis isolates, and (v) to study the population structure and transmission dynamics of M. tuberculosis isolates from patients in Amhara region, Northwest Ethiopia. The median specimen storage time was 132 days. Of 319 specimens, 90.0% were culture positive. The length of time of sputum storage had no significant effect on the recovery rate of M. tuberculosis. Of 260 M. tuberculosis isolates, 15.8% were resistant to at least one first-line drug, 5.0% were multidrug resistant (MDR) and 3.5% were resistant to all first-line drugs. Any resistance to INH, RMP, streptomycin (STM), EMB and pyrazinamide (PZA) was 13.8%, 5.8%, 10.0%, 7.3% and 4.6%, respectively. All isolates were susceptible to second-line drugs. The GenoType®MTBDRplus assay had a sensitivity of 92% and specificity of 99% to detect INH resistance, and 100% sensitivity and specificity to detect RMP resistance and MDR. The GenoType®MTBDRsl assay had a sensitivity of 42% and specificity of 100% to detect EMB resistance. According to the molecular methods, mutations conferring resistance to INH, RMP, or EMB were detected in 13.5%, 5.8%, and 3.1% of the isolates, respectively, while mutation conferring MDR was present in 5.0% of the isolates. Of 244 M. tuberculosis isolates, 59.0% were classified as known lineages; Dehli/CAS (38.9%), Haarlem (8.6%), Ural (3.3%), LAM (3.3%), TUR (2.0%), X-type (1.2%), S-type (0.8%), Beijing (0.4%) and Uganda II (0.4%) lineage. Interestingly, 31.6% of the isolates were grouped in to four previously undefined phylogenetic lineages and were named as Ethiopia_3 (13.1%), Ethiopia_1 (7.8%), Ethiopia_H37Rv like (7.0%) and Ethiopia_2 (3.7%) lineages. The remaining 9.4% of the isolates could not be assigned to the known or new lineages. Overall, 45.1% of the isolates were grouped in clusters, indicating high rate of recent transmission. Similarly, 66.7% of MDR strains were grouped in clusters.
