ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

Objective/

background:

the prevalence of pulmonary nontuberculous mycobacterial [pNTM] disease, including Mycobacterium avium complex [MAC], varies widely according to geographic region. However, the factors that influence regional variations in pNTM disease prevalence remain unknown. This study was undertaken to examine whether environmental or occupational factors or host traits could influence regional variations in pNTM disease prevalence
