“…The Nicaraguan and Iranian studies also showed similar resistance rates for tetracycline and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (>50%). Finally, the study from southeast China by Chen et al [48] showed the effect of DEC serotype and genotype on resistance, demonstrating that O6, O25, O159, ST48, ST218, ST94 and ST1491 were sensitive to most antibiotics, while O45, O15, O1, O169, ST38, ST226, ST69, ST31, ST93, ST394 and ST648 were highly resistant to most antibiotics.…”
