TLDR
The prevalence of PNTM is increasing across all regions of the United States and among both men and women, and significant racial/ethnic and geographic differences suggest important gene-environment interactions.Abstract:
Rationale: Pulmonary nontuberculous mycobacteria (PNTM) are an important cause of morbidity among older adults in the United States, but national prevalence estimates are lackingObjectives: To describe the prevalence and trends of PNTM disease among adults aged 65 years or older throughout the United StatesMethods: A nationally representative 5% sample of Medicare Part B beneficiaries was analyzed from 1997 to 2007 Demographic and medical claims data were compiled and prevalence estimates for PNTM and selected comorbidities were calculated and trends over time evaluated Logistic regression was used to identify demographic and geographic factors associated with PNTMMeasurements and Main Results: From 1997 to 2007, the annual prevalence significantly increased from 20 to 47 cases/100,000 persons, or 82% per year The period prevalence was 112 cases/100,000 persons, although prevalence was twofold higher among Asians/Pacific Islanders than among whites (228 vs 116 cases/100,000 persons) Western stateread more

TL;DR: This guideline focuses on pulmonary disease in adults (without cystic fibrosis or human immunodeficiency virus infection) caused by the most common NTM pathogens such as Mycobacterium avium complex, MycOBacterium kansasii, and Myc Cobacterium xenopi among the slowly growing NTM and MyCobacterius abscessus among the rapidly growing N TM.
