Fox G, Nhung N, Sy D, Hoa N, Anh L, Anh N, et al.
N Engl J Med . 2018 Jan; 378(3):221-229. PMID: 29342390
Background: Active case finding is a top priority for the global control of tuberculosis, but robust evidence for its effectiveness in high-prevalence settings is lacking. We sought to evaluate the...

Huyen M, Cobelens F, Buu T, Lan N, Dung N, Kremer K, et al.
Antimicrob Agents Chemother . 2013 May; 57(8):3620-7. PMID: 23689727
Isoniazid resistance is highly prevalent in Vietnam. We investigated the molecular and epidemiological characteristics and the association with first-line treatment outcomes of the main isoniazid resistance mutations in Mycobacterium tuberculosis...

Huyen M, Buu T, Tiemersma E, Lan N, Dung N, Kremer K, et al.
J Infect Dis . 2013 Feb; 207(10):1516-24. PMID: 23408848
Background: In Vietnam, the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Beijing genotype is associated with multi-drug resistance and is emerging. A possible explanation for this genotype's success is an increased rate of relapse. Methods:...

Huyen M, Kremer K, Lan N, Buu T, Cobelens F, Tiemersma E, et al.
BMC Infect Dis . 2013 Feb; 13:63. PMID: 23375050
Background: In comparison to restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) typing, variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) typing is easier to perform, faster and yields results in a simple, numerical format....

Buu T, van Soolingen D, Huyen M, Lan N, Quy H, Tiemersma E, et al.
PLoS One . 2012 Aug; 7(8):e42323. PMID: 22912700
Background: Studies have shown that the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Beijing genotype is an emerging pathogen that is frequently associated with drug resistance. This suggests that drug resistant Beijing strains have a...

Huyen M, Kremer K, Lan N, Cobelens F, Buu T, Dung N, et al.
J Clin Microbiol . 2012 Mar; 50(5):1586-92. PMID: 22378903
Tuberculosis patients may be infected with or have disease caused by more than one Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain, usually referred to as "mixed infections." These have mainly been observed in settings...

Buu T, Huyen M, van Soolingen D, Lan N, Quy H, Tiemersma E, et al.
Clin Infect Dis . 2010 Sep; 51(8):879-86. PMID: 20836697
Background: Studies have suggested that the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Beijing genotype causes more severe clinical disease and higher treatment failure rates with standard regimens, possibly in association with an increased risk...

Buu T, van Soolingen D, Huyen M, Lan N, Quy H, Tiemersma E, et al.
Emerg Infect Dis . 2010 Aug; 16(9):1466-8. PMID: 20735935
Using population-based data from rural Vietnam, we assessed tuberculosis (TB) transmission within and outside of households. Eighty-three percent of persons with recent household TB were infected by different strains of...

Huyen M, Tiemersma E, Lan N, Cobelens F, Dung N, Sy D, et al.
BMC Infect Dis . 2010 Jun; 10:149. PMID: 20525271
Background: To control multidrug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB), the drug susceptibility profile is needed to guide therapy. Classical drug susceptibility testing (DST) may take up to 2 to 4 months. The...

Buu T, Huyen M, Lan N, Quy H, Hen N, Zignol M, et al.
Emerg Infect Dis . 2009 Oct; 15(10):1570-7. PMID: 19861047
Tuberculosis case notification rates (CNRs) for young adults in Vietnam are increasing. To determine whether this finding could reflect emergence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Beijing genotype, we studied all new sputum...
