Abstract
Rationale: Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are ubiquitous environmental bacteria, and some pathogenic species cause lung disease. Environmental factors contribute to increased NTM abundance, with higher potential for exposure and infection. Objectives: To identify water-quality constituents that influence the risk of NTM infection in Oregon. Methods: We conducted a population-based cohort study using patient incidence data from the Oregon...
