Isolates were considered "unique" based on the comparison of serotype and antibiotic susceptibility (AS) profile for S.p. and H.i. and on the AS profile alone for M.c.. If the 2 isolates had different serotypes, or the same serotype but a different AS profile, then the 2 isolates were considered "unique", and both isolates were retained in the analyses. Note: For one subject who underwent BAL procedure, no BAL fluid was available for study analyses. | The analysis was performed on the H. influenzae unique isolates from quantitative positive subjects who were included in the ATP cohort. | Posted | | Median | Full Range | Unique isolates of subjects | | From Day 0 to Year 2 | | | | ID | Title | Description |
