Risk factors and drug resistance of non-tuberculous mycobacteria in HIV/AIDS patients: a retrospective study in southern China
For HIV/AIDS patients presenting with cough symptoms, it is recommended that molecular biology techniques be employed concurrently with MTB testing to screen for and identify NTM, thereby clarifying the specific type of mycobacterial infection present. IGRA cannot completely distinguish MTB from NTM, and more auxiliary examinations are needed.
