摘要
BACKGROUND: The epidemiology of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infections is not well described. In this study, we sought to determine the incidence and prevalence of NTM infections and focus on social risk factors. In addition, we describe people with pulmonary and extrapulmonary NTM. RESEARCH QUESTION: What are the incidence and prevalence of NTM in Denmark, and what are the characteristics of the affected patients? STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: This is a nationwide retrospective register-based cohort study in Denmark. Adult patients in the Danish national registers who received a diagnosis of NTM disease from 2000 to 2017 were classified fi ed as having either pulmonary or extrapulmonary NTM disease. RESULTS: We identified fi ed 1,146 adults with an NTM diagnosis. Of these, 661 patients had pulmonary NTM, of whom 50.4% were male, whereas 485 had extrapulmonary NTM, of whom 59.6% were male. The median age (interquartile range) was 66 (18) years and 57 (32) years, respectively. The yearly incidence rate per 100,000 increased between 2000 and 2017 for both pulmonary NTM (0.4 to 1.3) and extrapulmonary NTM (0.3 to 0.6). The annual prevalence per 100,000 inhabitants increased from 0.4 to 3.5 for pulmonary NTM and from 0.3 to 1.0 for extrapulmonary NTM. The incidence rate increased with age. The incidence of pulmonary NTM was highest among those who were aged 70 years or older (19.3 per 100,000 inhabitants). Compared with patients with pulmonary NTM, patients with extrapulmonary NTM were more likely to be employed and had a higher educational level. INTERPRETATION: This study indicates that the prevalence of NTM disease in Denmark increased between 2000 and 2017. We found that patients with pulmonary NTM and patients with extrapulmonary NTM represent two distinct groups that differ in age, sex, education, and employment status. Increased suspicion of pulmonary NTM disease is warranted in older adults after exclusion of more common lung infections.
