Antimicrobial Resistance Trends in Urine Escherichia coli Isolates From Adult and Adolescent Females in the United States From 2011 to 2019: Rising ESBL Strains and Impact on Patient Management.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Uncomplicated urinary tract infection (uUTI) is predominantly caused by Escherichia coli, which has increasing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) at the United States (US)-community level. As uUTI is often treated empirically, assessing AMR is challenging, and there are limited contemporary data characterizing period prevalence in the US.

Methods

This was a retrospective study of AMR using Becton, Dickinson and Company Insights Research Database (Franklin Lakes, New Jersey, US) data collected 2011-2019. Thirty-day, nonduplicate Escherichia coli urine isolates from US female outpatients (aged ≥12 years) were included. Isolates were evaluated for nonsusceptibility (intermediate/resistant) to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, fluoroquinolones, or nitrofurantoin, and assessed for extended-spectrum β-lactamase production (ESBL+) and for ≥2 or ≥3 drug-resistance phenotypes. Generalized estimating equations were used to model AMR trends over time and by US census region.

Results

Among 1 513 882 E. coli isolates, the overall prevalence of isolates nonsusceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, fluoroquinolones, and nitrofurantoin was 25.4%, 21.1%, and 3.8%, respectively. Among the isolates, 6.4% were ESBL+, 14.4% had ≥2 drug-resistance phenotypes, and 3.8% had ≥3. Modeling demonstrated a relative average yearly increase of 7.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], 7.2-8.2%) for ESBL+ isolates and 2.7% (95% CI, 2.2-3.2%) for ≥3 drug-phenotypes (both P < .0001). Modeling also demonstrated significant variation in AMR prevalence between US census regions (P < .001).

Conclusions

Period prevalence of AMR among US outpatient urine-isolated E. coli was high, and for multidrug-resistance phenotypes increased during the study period with significant variation between census regions. Knowledge of regional AMR rates helps inform empiric treatment of community-onset uUTI and highlights the AMR burden to physicians.

Project description:BackgroundAntimicrobial resistance research in uncomplicated urinary tract infection typically focuses on the main causative pathogen, Escherichia coli; however, little is known about the antimicrobial resistance burden of Klebsiella species, which can also cause uncomplicated urinary tract infections. This retrospective cohort study assessed the prevalence and geographic distribution of antimicrobial resistance among Klebsiella species and antimicrobial resistance trends for K. pneumoniae in the United States (2011-2019).MethodsK. pneumoniae and K. oxytoca urine isolates (30-day, non-duplicate) among female outpatients (aged ≥ 12 years) with presumed uUTI at 304 centers in the United States were classified by resistance phenotype(s): not susceptible to nitrofurantoin, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, or fluoroquinolone, extended-spectrum β-lactamase-positive/not susceptible; and multidrug-resistant based on ≥ 2 and ≥ 3 resistance phenotypes. Antimicrobial resistance prevalence by census division and age, as well as antimicrobial resistance trends over time for Klebsiella species, were assessed using generalized estimating equations.Results270,552 Klebsiella species isolates were evaluated (250,719 K. pneumoniae; 19,833 K. oxytoca). The most frequent resistance phenotypes in 2019 were nitrofurantoin not susceptible (Klebsiella species: 54.0%; K. pneumoniae: 57.3%; K. oxytoca: 15.1%) and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole not susceptible (Klebsiella species: 10.4%; K. pneumoniae: 10.6%; K. oxytoca: 8.6%). Extended-spectrum β-lactamase-positive/not susceptible prevalence was 5.4%, 5.3%, and 6.8%, respectively. K. pneumoniae resistance phenotype prevalence varied (p < 0.0001) geographically and by age, and increased over time (except for the nitrofurantoin not susceptible phenotype, which was stable and > 50% throughout).ConclusionsThere is a high antimicrobial resistance prevalence and increasing antimicrobial resistance trends among K. pneumoniae isolates from female outpatients in the United States with presumed uncomplicated urinary tract infection. Awareness of K. pneumoniae antimicrobial resistance helps to optimize empiric uncomplicated urinary tract infection treatment.

Project description:Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli can cause invasive infections in infants and immunocompromised children with high associated morbidity and mortality. The gut is a major reservoir of these strains in the community. Current dogma dictates that antimicrobial resistance is associated with a fitness cost. However, recent data show that some contemporary ESBL E. coli strains may be more "fit" compared to nonresistant E. coli strains. Here, we use whole-genome sequencing to first characterize 15 ESBL E. coli strains isolated from infants in a Pakistani community, a clinical extraintestinal pathogenic ESBL E. coli ST131 strain, and a non-ESBL commensal E. coli strain, and then use a novel animal model of early life gut colonization to assess the ability of these strains to colonize the infant mouse gut. We determined that CTX-M-15 was present in all the ESBL strains, as well as additional beta-lactamases and genes conferring resistance to multiple antibiotic classes. In the animal model, 11/16 ESBL E. coli strains had significantly higher burden of colonization at week four of life compared to commensal strains, even in the absence of selective antibiotic pressure, suggesting that these strains may have enhanced fitness despite being highly antimicrobial resistant. IMPORTANCE Antimicrobial resistance is a global public health emergency. Infants, especially preterm infants and those in the neonatal intensive care unit, immunocompromised hosts, and those with chronic illnesses are at highest risk of adverse outcomes from invasive infections with antimicrobial-resistant strains. It has long been thought that resistance is associated with a fitness cost, i.e., antimicrobial-resistant strains are not able to colonize the gut as well as nonresistant strains, and that antibiotic exposure is a key risk factor for persistent colonization with resistant strains. Here, we use a novel infant mouse model to add to the growing body of literature that some highly-resistant contemporary Escherichia coli strains can persist in the gut with a significant burden of colonization despite absence of antibiotic exposure.

Project description:ImportanceNursing homes play a vital role in providing postacute and long-term care for individuals whose needs cannot be met in the home or community. Whether the supply of nursing home beds and, specifically, the supply of high-quality beds has kept pace with the growth of the older adult population is unknown.ObjectiveTo describe changes in the supply of population-adjusted nursing home beds from 2011 to 2019.Design, setting, and participantsThis cross-sectional study examines changes in the population-adjusted supply of nursing home beds across all US counties from 2011 to 2019 and describes county and nursing home characteristics where the supply of nursing home beds has increased vs decreased.Main outcomes and measuresNumber of nursing home beds adjusted per 10 000 adults aged 65 years and older.ResultsThe population-adjusted supply of nursing home beds declined from 2011 to 2019 for 86.4% of US counties, by a mean (SD) of 129.9 (123.8) beds per 10 000 adults aged 65 years or older per county from a baseline mean (SD) of 552.5 (274.4) beds per 10 000 adults aged 65 years or older per county in 2011. The share of beds that were high quality (4- or 5-star ratings) also declined, which was driven by a small number of counties where nursing home bed supply increased due to a proliferation of lower-quality beds. Simultaneously, metropolitan counties with declining numbers of nursing home beds also experienced declining number of senior housing residential beds (-11.3 [54.6] beds per 10 000 adults aged 65 years or older per county from a baseline mean [SD] of 354.8 [222.3]).Conclusions and relevanceThe findings of this cross-sectional study suggest that the supply of nursing home beds, specifically high-quality nursing home beds, and senior residential housing beds have not kept pace with the demographics of an aging population. Understanding the supply of high-quality nursing home beds and associated geographic variation can inform targeted policies to best support older adults requiring nursing home care.

Project description:IntroductionThe smokeless tobacco (SLT) industry in the U.S. continues to transform with novel products amid an evolving regulatory environment. We report SLT sales trends in the U.S. by analyzing retail market scanner data from 2011 through 2019.MethodsNational SLT sales data were obtained from Nielsen's Convenience Track System for January 2011 to December 2019. UPC codes were used to classify products by attributes including type, parent company, brand, form, and flavor. Market share was calculated as percentage of total unit sales. Detailed product analysis was presented for moist snuff, snus, and tobacco-free nicotine products.ResultsSLT sales increased by 5.8% between 2011 and 2016 but declined by 3.9% from 2016 to 2019. Moist snuff sales increased by 8.1% between 2011 and 2016 and then declined 7.4% from 2016 to 2019 but still accounted for roughly 90% of the overall market annually. Between 2011 and 2019, snus sales consistently increased while sales of chew, dry snuff, and dissolvables decreased. Tobacco-free nicotine products emerged in 2016 and captured 4.0% of the market by 2019. Portion pouch packaging and flavors showed consistent growth although their popularity varied by the type of smokeless product.ConclusionThis study extends our previous work on U.S. SLT market trends through 2019. Overall sales increased between 2011 and 2016 but there were signs of leveling off including declining sales of moist snuff. Newer products continue to gain market share. Continued monitoring of SLT sales is needed, particularly given the new modified risk status of several products.ImplicationsThis study analyzed the last 9 years of smokeless tobacco market data (2011-2019) to describe recent trends in sales. Overall, the smokeless product category is quite resilient although signs suggest downward trends among some product categories and features. New types of smokeless tobacco products (eg, snus and tobacco-free nicotine pouches) account for a growing share of the market.
