Abstract

Objective: The present study investigated the role in TRANSMISSION of M. tuberculosis strains isolated from tuberculosis patients residing in Northwest (East and West Azarbaijan) of Iran.Materials and Methods: We performed restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis on IS6110 of M. tuberculosis isolated from Northwest Iran. Total of 165 isolates of M. tuberculosis were analyzed by RFLP method.Results: The 5 copies and more IS6110 isolates comprised 30.52% of the total isolates. They formed 16 clustered groups consisting of 2 to 10 cases each. 69.48% of patients had a unique RFLP patterns. Cases from male patients were more clustered than female patients but statistically was not significant (P>0.05). In this study patients with 56 and older AGE were strongly associated with clustering (59.6%), which were significantly more than younger patients (P<0.05). Conclusion: In the present study we found old AGE as a major risk factor in contact dependent TRANSMISSION of TB compared to disease recurrence. Unemployment and poor living condition were also among the risk factors in TRANSMISSION of tuberculosis.
