Estimation of antimicrobial resistance of < em > Mycoplasma genitalium, < /em > Belgium, 2022
ConclusionAlthough limited in sample size, our data suggest no additional benefit of testing MG retrieved from MSM for macrolide resistance in Belgium, when making treatment decisions. The lower occurrence of macrolide resistance in other population groups, combined with emergence of fluoroquinolone RAMs support macrolide-resistance testing in these groups. Continued surveillance of resistance in MG in different population groups will be crucial to confirm our findings and to guide national testing and treatment strategies.PMID:38362626 | DOI:10.2807/1560-7917.ES.2024.29.7.2300318
