Brief summary

The aim of this study was to elucidate genetic susceptibility of patients with nontuberculous mycobacterial lung disease using genome-wide association study.

Detailed description

Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are ubiquitous environmental organisms. NTM lung disease is increasing, however, genetic susceptibility of patients with the disease have not been identified. To elucidate the genetic susceptibility of NTM lung disease, the investigators perform a genome-wide association study (GWAS) including patients with NTM lung disease and healthy controls (case : control = 1 : 3). The age-, sex-matched control group will be recruited from the Korean Healthy Twin Study.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Finding of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with the risk of NTM lung disease compared with controlsBaselineTo identify SNPs related to NTM lung disease using logistic regression after controlling for confounders (GWAS statistical significance threshold, P \< 5.00\*E-08)

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Finding of SNPs associated with the risk of severe NTM lung disease compared with controlsBaselineTo identify SNPs related to severe NTM lung disease compared with controls using logistic regression after controlling for confounders (GWAS statistical significance threshold, P \< 5.00\*E-08)
Finding of SNPs associated with the risk of severe NTM lung disease compared with mild NTM lung diseaseBaselineTo identify SNPs related to severe NTM lung disease compared with mild NTM lung disease using logistic regression after controlling for confounders (GWAS statistical significance threshold, P \< 5.00\*E-08)
Finding of SNPs associated with the risk of Mycobacterium avium complex lung disease versus M. abscessus lung disease versus controlsBaselineTo identify SNPs related to Mycobacterium avium complex lung disease versus M. abscessus lung disease versus controls using multinomial logistic regression after controlling for confounders (GWAS statistical significance threshold, P \< 5.00\*E-08)
