Project description:Clonal dissemination of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) in 170 Escherichia coli isolates and 70 Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from a nationwide study of 40 Spanish centers in 2000 was not observed in most centers. The most prevalent ESBL were CTX-M-9 (27.3%), SHV-12 (23.9%), and CTX-M-14 (20.5%) for E. coli and TEM-3 (16.7%) and TEM-4 (25%) for K. pneumoniae. A new ESBL, TEM-133, with mutations L21F, E104K, and R164S, was identified.

Project description:ObjectivesProduction of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) by enteric bacteria continues to be a major problem in hospitals and community. ESBLs producing bacteria cause many serious infections including urinary tract infections, peritonitis, cholangitis and intra-abdominal abscess. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of ESBLs producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteria isolated from clinical samples of patients attending Imam Reza and Ghaem University Hospitals, Mashhad, Northeast of Iran.Materials and methodsDuring 2009 and 2010, 82 strains of E. coli and 78 strains of K. pneumoniae were isolated from out-patients and hospitalized patients and they were examined by Oxoid combination disk test and PCR methods.ResultsWe found that 43.9% of E. coli and 56.1% of K. pneumoniae produced ESBLs. The frequency of SHV and TEM among the ESBLs producing isolates were 14.4% and 20.6%, respectively. Ratios of ESBLs positive isolates from out-patients to hospitalized patients were 24/33.ConclusionThis study shows that the prevalence of ESBLs producing E. coli and K. pneumoniae is high in both study groups (out-patients and hospitalized patients). Therefore it seems that continuous surveillance is essential to monitor the ESBLs producing microorganisms in hospitals and community.

Project description:Colistin-heteroresistant (CST-HR) Enterobacterales isolates have been identified recently, challenging the clinical laboratories since routine susceptibility tests fail to detect this phenotype. In this work we describe the first CST-HR phenotype in extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates in South America. Additionally, we determine the genomic mechanisms of colistin heteroresistance in these strains. The CST-HR phenotype was analyzed by the population analysis profile (PAP) method, and mutations associated with this phenotype were determined by whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and the local BLAST+ DB tool. As a result, 8/60 isolates were classified as CST-HR according to the PAP method. From WGS, we determined that the CST-HR isolates belong to three different Sequence Types (STs) and four K-loci: ST11 (KL15 and KL81), ST25 (KL2), and ST1161 (KL19). We identified diverse mutations in the two-component regulatory systems PmrAB and PhoPQ, as well as a disruption of the mgrB global regulator mediated by IS1-like and IS-5-like elements, which could confer resistance to CST in CST-HR and ESBL-producing isolates. These are the first descriptions in Chile of CST-HR in ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae isolates. The emergence of these isolates could have a major impact on the effectiveness of colistin as a "last resort" against these isolates, thus jeopardizing current antibiotic alternatives; therefore, it is important to consider the epidemiology of the CST-HR phenotype.

Project description:IntroductionExtended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae are pathogens of significant public health interest for which new antibiotics are urgently needed.AimTo determine the prevalence of ESBLs in E. coli and K. pneumoniae isolates from patients attending the Tamale Teaching Hospital (TTH) in Ghana.MethodologyThe study was a cross-sectional study involving convenience sampling of E. coli and K. pneumoniae isolates from consenting patients' clinical specimens, between April and June 2015. Antimicrobial susceptibility test was performed, and ESBL-producer phenotypes were further screened for BlaTEM, BlaSHV, and BlaCTX-M genes. Patients' clinical data were additionally collected using a structured questionnaire.ResultsOf the 150 non-duplicate E. coli and K. pneumoniae isolates identified, 140 were confirmed as E. coli (84%, n = 117) and K. pneumoniae (16%, n = 23). Of these, sixty-two (44%) [E. coli (84%; n = 52); K. pneumoniae (16%; n = 10)] phenotypically expressed ESBLs. The proportion of ESBL-producing isolates was higher in adults (15-65 years) than in neonates (< 28 days) (p = 0.14). Most of the isolates showed a high percentage resistance to ampicillin (96%) and tetracycline (89%), but a relatively lower resistance to amikacin (36%). No isolate was resistant to meropenem. More ESBL producers were multidrug resistant compared to non-ESBL-producers [23% (14/62) versus 18% (14/78); p = 0.573]. Overall, 74% (n = 46) of the ESBL genotypes expressed BlaCTX-M-1 genes, followed by 63% (n = 39) BlaTEM, and 16% (n = 10) BlaSHV. The study showed a high prevalence of ESBL-positive E. coli and K. pneumoniae, mostly CTX-M-1 producers at TTH.ConclusionRoutine laboratory ESBL screening is warranted to inform patient management.

Project description:To determine the prevalence and genotypes of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) among clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli, we performed antibiotic susceptibility testing, pI determination, induction testing, transconjugation, and DNA sequencing analysis. Among the 509 isolates collected from 13 university hospitals in Korea, 39.2% produced ESBLs. ESBL-producing isolates were detected in every region in Korea. A total of 44.6% of the isolates produced both TEM- and SHV-type ESBLs, and 52% of ESBL-producing isolates transferred resistance to ceftazidime by transconjugation. The ESBLs were TEM-19, TEM-20, TEM-52, SHV-2a, SHV-12, and one new variant identified for the first time in Korea, namely, TEM-116. TEM-1 and SHV-12 were by far the most common variants. TEM-1, TEM-116, and SHV-12 showed a high prevalence in K. pneumoniae. Two isolates (E. coli SH16 and K. pneumoniae SV3) produced CMY-1-like beta-lactamases, which play a decisive role in resistance to cefoxitin and cefotetan, as well as TEM-type enzymes (TEM-20 and TEM-52, respectively). Using MIC patterns and DNA sequencing analysis, we postulated a possible evolution scheme among TEM-type beta-lactamases in Korea: from TEM-1 to TEM-19, from TEM-19 to TEM-20, and from TEM-20 to TEM-52.

Project description:The aim of this study was to determine whether there is an association between serum resistance, O serotypes, and the production of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) in Klebsiella pneumoniae. Ninety ESBL-producing and 178 non-ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae isolates gathered in five European countries were O serotyped and tested for sensitivity to the serum's bactericidal effect. The frequency of serum-resistant isolates was higher among ESBL-producing strains (30%; 27/90 isolates) than among non-ESBL-producing strains (17.9%; 32/178 isolates) (P = 0.037; odds ratio [OR] = 1.96; 95% confidence interval [95% CI] = 1.08 to 3.53). Although O1 was the most common O serotype in both Klebsiella groups, its frequency among ESBL-producing strains was significantly higher (59%; 53/90 isolates) than among non-ESBL producers (36%; 64/178 isolates) (P = 0.0006; OR = 2.5; 95% CI = 1.52 to 4.29). Furthermore, the prevalence of the O1 serotype was higher among serum-resistant strains of both ESBL-producing (74%; 20/27isolates) and non-ESBL producers (75%; 24/32 isolates) than among serum-sensitive ESBL producers (52.4%; 33/63 isolates) and non-ESBL producers (27.4%; 40/146 isolates). Serum resistance among ESBL-producing strains (36%; 17/47 isolates) versus non-ESBL-producing strains (16%; 27/166 isolates) was also significantly higher after the exclusion of clonal strains (P = 0.0056; OR = 2.9; 95% CI = 1.41 to 6.01). Sixteen ESBL types were detected, among which the frequency of serum resistance was significantly lower among the SHV-producing strains (9/48 isolates) than among the TEM producers (16/35 isolates) (P = 0.016; OR = 3.65; CI = 1.3 to 9.7). Curing ESBL-coding plasmids did not influence the serum resistance of the bacteria; all six plasmid-cured derivatives maintained serum resistance. The present findings suggest that ESBL-producing strains have a greater pathogenic potential than non-ESBL-producing strains, but the linkage between O serotypes, serum resistance, and ESBL production remains unclear at this stage.

Project description:The in vitro activity of amikacin, gentamicin, kanamycin, tobramycin, neomycin, and netilmicin against 420 Escherichia coli producing extended spectrum β-lactamases (Ec-ESBLs) and 139 Klebsiella pneumoniae producing extended spectrum β-lactamase (Kp-ESBL) collected in two multicenter studies performed in Spain in 2000 and 2006 was determined. The presence of genes encoding aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes (AMEs) and 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) methylases [aac(3)-Ia, aac(3)-IIa, aac(3)-IVa, aac(6')-Ib, ant(2")-Ia, ant(4')-IIa, aph(3')-Ia, aph(3')-IIa, armA, rmtB, and rmtC] was also investigated. The resistance to (one or more) aminoglycosides was significantly higher in Kp-ESBL (104/139, 74.8%) than in Ec-ESBL (171/420, 40.7%; p < 0.0001). The lowest resistance rates for both species in the two studies were observed for amikacin. The prevalence of AME genes was significantly different in Ec-ESBL (161/420, 38.3%) than in Kp-ESBL (115/139, 82.7%; p < 0.0001). The most prevalent AME genes in Ec-ESBL and Kp-ESBL were aac(6')-Ib (16.2% and 44.6%) and aac(3)-IIa (14.7% and 43.1%), respectively. The expected phenotypic profile correlated with the found AMEs encoding genes in 59.6% Ec-ESBL and 26.1% Kp-ESBL. In Ec-ESBL, aac(6')-Ib was usually associated in 2000 with blaSHV (26.6%), but with blaCTX-M-1 group (34.8%) in 2006, while aac(3)-IIa was coincident in 2000 with blaTEM (14.6%) and with blaCTX-M-1 group (16.3%) in 2006. Among Kp-ESBL, the aac(6')-Ib and aac(3)-IIa genes were more frequent in strains with blaTEM (22.0% and 44.0%) in 2000 and with blaCTX-M-1 group (46.4% and 34.0%) in 2006. Resistance to aminoglycosides in Ec-ESBL and Kp-ESBL is frequent and related to production of AMEs; this limits the clinical use of aminoglycosides against these organisms.

Project description:BackgroundSub-Saharan Africa has the highest estimated death rate attributable to antimicrobial resistance, especially from extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales (ESBL-E). However, the dynamics of human colonization in the community with ESBL-E are not well described. Inadequate water, sanitation, and hygiene infrastructure and associated behaviors are believed to play an important role in transmission of ESBL-E, and an improved understanding of the temporal dynamics of within-household transmission could help inform the design of future policies.MethodsIn this 18-month study, using microbiological data and household surveys, we built a multivariable hierarchical harmonic logistic regression model to identify risk factors for colonization with ESBL-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae, reflecting household structure and temporal correlation of colonization status.ResultsBeing male was associated with a lower risk of colonization with ESBL-producing E. coli (odds ratio [OR], 0.786; credible interval [CrI], .678-.910), whereas the use of a tube well or a borehole was associated with an increased risk (OR, 1.550; CrI, 1.003-2.394). For ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae, recent antibiotic exposure increased risk of colonization (OR, 1.281; CrI, 1.049-1.565), whereas sharing plates decreased that risk (OR, 0.672; CrI, .460-.980). Finally, the temporal correlation range of 8 to 11 weeks provided evidence that within-household transmission occurs within this time frame.ConclusionsWe describe different risks for colonization with different enteric bacterial species. Our findings suggest interventions to reduce transmission targeted at the household level need to focus on improving water, sanitation, and hygiene infrastructure and associated behaviors, whereas at the community level, they should focus on both environmental hygiene and antibiotic stewardship.
