^aP values for log₂ MIC values between two different groups were calculated using the Mann–Whitney U test.

^bpMAH, isolates from the sputa of patients with pulmonary M. avium subsp. hominissuis disease.

^cHIV, isolates from the blood of HIV-positive patients with disseminated M. avium subsp. hominissuis disease.
