Nontuberculous mycobacteria disease in cystic fibrosis

Pulmonary infections with nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are increasing in prevalence and can result in significant morbidity and mortality in people with cystic fibrosis (CF). The objective of this study is to identify features of the lower airway microbiota in patients with CF and NTM infection that differ between people with and without NTM disease.
