Background: Microbiological diagnosis of mycobacteriosis is often difficult, as it is necessary to differentiate between transient colonization and active infection. Methods: We studied the cultural properties of Mycobacterium abscessus complex (MABSc) strains obtained from cystic fibrosis patients, and also analyzed composite correlation index (CCI) values in patients with repeated MABSc inoculation and their correlation with the presence of clinical and radiological manifestations of mycobacteriosis. Results: As a result, MABSc more often grew in S‑form colonies in patients without clinical manifestations of chronic infection, while R‑form colonies were characteristic of patients with chronic infection and clinical symptoms. At the same time, in patients examined once, no growth of colonies in the R‑form was recorded, and all strains produced growth in the form of either S‑colonies or in the S‑ and R‑forms simultaneously. Statistically significant results were obtained for the relationship of the CCI with the clinical and radiological picture. In addition, a heterogeneous MABSc population with low CCI score values correlated with the development of mycobacteriosis in patients. In patients with high CCI score values (homogeneity of isolated strains), on the contrary, there were no radiological or clinical signs of the disease. Conclusion: These data make it possible to build a strategy for monitoring patients depending on changes in CCI score values. The use of CCI matrix to evaluate microorganisms’ identification results is a potentially new method that expands the use of matrix‑assisted laser desorption ionization time‑of‑flight mass spectrometry [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
