Next-Generation Sequencing of the Whole Bacterial Genome for Tracking Molecular Insight into the Broad-Spectrum Antimicrobial Resistance of <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> Clinical Isolates from the Democratic Republic of Congo

Next-Generation Sequencing of the Whole Bacterial Genome for Tracking Molecular Insight into the Broad-Spectrum Antimicrobial Resistance of <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> Clinical Isolates from the Democratic Republic of Congo

Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) is increasingly needed to guide the <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> (<i>H. pylori</i>) treatment but remains laborious and unavailable in most African countries. To assess the clinical relevance of bacterial whole genome sequencing (WGS)-...
