Abstract
2019–2020 at 6 US sites. Among 159 CRE cases in children (median age 5 years), CRE was isolated from urine for 131 (82.4%) and blood from 20 (12.6%). Annual CRE incidence rate (cases/100,000 population) was 0.47–0.87. Among 207 ESBL-E cases in children (median age 6 years), ESBL-E was isolated from urine of 196 (94.7%) and blood of 8 (3.9%). Annual ESBL-E incidence rate was 26.5 in 2019 and 19.63 in 2020. CRE and ESBL-E rates were >2-fold higher among infants than other age groups. Most CRE and ESBL-E cases were healthcare-associated community-onset (68 [43.0%] for CRE vs. 40 [23.7%] for ESBL-E) or community-associated (43 [27.2%] for CRE vs. 109 [64.5%] for ESBL-E). Programs to detect, prevent, and treat multidrug-resistant infections must include pediatric populations (particularly the youngest) and outpatient settings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Urinary tract infections caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-E. coli) may occur as outbreaks due to common-source exposures. Yet, it is currently unknown if they cluster geographically as would be expected as part of an outbreak. METHODS We collected electronic health record data on all patients living in San Francisco with culture-documented community-onset E. coli bacteriuria in a safety-net public healthcare system from January 2014 to March 2020 (diagnosed < 48 h after hospital admission or in outpatient clinical settings without a hospitalization in the past 90 days). We assessed the presence of spatial clusters of (1) ESBL-E. coli bacteriuria episodes, and (2) individuals with any ESBL-E. coli bacteriuria episode, with Global and Local Moran's I. We evaluated differences in prevalence of bacteriuria recurrence by ESBL-production by Poisson regression. RESULTS Out of 4,304 unique individuals, we identified spatial clusters of ESBL-E. coli bacteriuria episodes (n = 461) compared to non-ESBL-E. coli bacteriuria episodes (n = 5477; Global Moran's p < 0.001). Spatial clusters of individuals with any bacteriuria caused by ESBL-E. coli were not identified (p = 0.43). Bacteriuria recurrence was more likely to occur with ESBL-E. coli (odds ratio [OR] 2.78, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] 2.10, 3.66, p < 0.001), particularly after an initial ESBL-E. coli bacteriuria episode (OR 2.27, 95% CI 1.82, 2.83, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION We found spatial clusters of ESBL-E. coli bacteriuria episodes. However, this was partly explained by clustering within individuals more than between individuals, as having an ESBL-E. coli bacteriuria was associated with recurrence with ESBL-E. coli. These findings may help better tailor clinical treatment of patients with recurrent urinary tract infections after an initial episode caused by ESBL-E. coli.

The role of the plasmid-mediated fluoroquinolone resistance genes as resistance mechanisms in pediatric infections due to Enterobacterales. Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2023; 13:1249505. [PMID: 37900312 PMCID: PMC10613066 DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2023.1249505] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/30/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Fluoroquinolones (FQs) are not commonly prescribed in children, yet the increasing incidence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Enterobacterales (Ent) infections in this population often reveals FQ resistance. We sought to define the role of FQ resistance in the epidemiology of MDR Ent in children, with an overall goal to devise treatment and prevention strategies. Methods A case-control study of children (0-18 years) at three Chicago hospitals was performed. Cases had infections by FQ-susceptible, β-lactamase-producing (bla) Ent harboring a non- or low-level expression of PMFQR genes (PMFQS Ent). Controls had FQR infections due to bla Ent with expressed PMFQR genes (PMFQR Ent). We sought bla genes by PCR or DNA (BD Max Check-Points assay®) and PMFQR genes by PCR. We performed rep-PCR, MLST, and E. coli phylogenetic grouping. Whole genome sequencing was additionally performed on PMFQS Ent positive isolates. Demographics, comorbidities, and device, antibiotic, and healthcare exposures were evaluated. Predictors of infection were assessed. Results Of 170 β-lactamase-producing Ent isolates, 85 (50%) were FQS; 23 (27%) had PMFQR genes (PMFQS cases). Eighty-five (50%) were FQR; 53 (62%) had PMFQR genes (PMFQR controls). The median age for children with PMFQS Ent and PMFQR Ent was 4.3 and 6.2 years, respectively (p = NS). Of 23 PMFQS Ent, 56% were Klebsiella spp., and of 53 PMFQR Ent, 76% were E. coli. The most common bla and PMFQR genes detected in PMFQS Ent were bla SHV ESBL (44%) and oqxAB (57%), and the corresponding genes detected in PMFQR Ent were bla CTX-M-1-group ESBL (79%) and aac(6')-Ib-cr (83%). Whole genome sequencing of PMFQS Ent revealed the additional presence of mcr-9, a transferable polymyxin resistance gene, in 47% of isolates, along with multiple plasmids and mobile genetic elements propagating drug resistance. Multivariable regression analysis showed that children with PMFQS Ent infections were more likely to have hospital onset infection (OR 5.7, 95% CI 1.6-22) and isolates containing multiple bla genes (OR 3.8, 95% CI 1.1-14.5). The presence of invasive devices mediated the effects of healthcare setting in the final model. Differences in demographics, comorbidities, or antibiotic use were not found. Conclusions Paradoxically, PMFQS Ent infections were often hospital onset and PMFQR Ent infections were community onset. PMFQS Ent commonly co-harbored multiple bla and PMFQR genes, and additional silent, yet transferrable antibiotic resistance genes such as mcr-9, affecting therapeutic options and suggesting the need to address infection prevention strategies to control spread. Control of PMFQS Ent infections will require validating community and healthcare-based sources and risk factors associated with acquisition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Limited data are available on the contemporary epidemiology, clinical management, and health care utilization for pediatric urinary tract infection (UTI) due to third-generation cephalosporin-resistant Enterobacterales (G3CR) in the United States. The objective is to describe the epidemiology, antimicrobial treatment and response, and health care utilization associated with G3CR UTI. METHODS Multisite, matched cohort-control study including children with G3CR UTI versus non-G3CR UTI. UTI was defined as per American Academy of Pediatrics guidelines, and G3CR as resistance to ceftriaxone, cefotaxime, or ceftazidime. We collected data from the acute phase of illness to 6 months thereafter. RESULTS Among 107 children with G3CR UTI and 206 non-G3CR UTI with documented assessment of response, the proportion with significant improvement on initial therapy was similar (52% vs 57%; odds ratio [OR], 0.81; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.44-1.50). Patients with G3CR were more frequently hospitalized at presentation (38% vs 17%; OR, 3.03; 95% CI, 1.77-5.19). In the follow-up period, more patients with G3CR had urine cultures (75% vs 53%; OR, 2.61; 95% CI, 1.33-5.24), antimicrobial treatment of any indication (53% vs 29%; OR, 2.82; 95% CI, 1.47-5.39), and subspecialty consultation (23% vs 6%; OR, 4.52; 95% CI, 2.10-10.09). In multivariate analysis, previous systemic antimicrobial therapy remained a significant risk factor for G3CR UTI (adjusted OR, 1.91; 95% CI, 1.06-3.44). CONCLUSIONS We did not observe a significant difference in response to therapy between G3CR and susceptible UTI, but subsequent health care utilization was significantly increased.

Abstract
We performed a spatial and mixed ecologic study of community-onset Enterobacteriaceae isolates collected from a public healthcare system in Cook County, Illinois, USA. Individual-level data were collected from the electronic medical record and census tract–level data from the US Census Bureau. Associations between individual- and population-level characteristics and presence of ceftriaxone resistance were determined by logistic regression analysis. Spatial analysis confirmed nonrandom distribution of ceftriaxone resistance across census tracts, which was associated with higher percentages of Hispanic, foreign-born, and uninsured residents. Individual-level analysis showed that ceftriaxone resistance was associated with male sex, an age range of 35–85 years, race or ethnicity other than non-Hispanic Black, inpatient encounter, and percentage of foreign-born residents in the census tract of isolate provenance. Our findings suggest that the likelihood of community-onset ceftriaxone resistance in Enterobacteriaceae is influenced by geographic and population-level variables. The development of effective mitigation strategies might depend on better accounting for these factors.

Abstract
Infectious complications caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria are a serious clinical and therapeutic problem. Our study aimed to analyze the genetic characteristics of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales (ESBL-E) that cause multidrug-resistant infections in patients with solid tumors. Identification of ESBL-encoding genes was performed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing. The clonal relationship of the isolates was evaluated by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) was carried out for selected Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates. All E. coli strains were classified into phylogenetic groups using the PCR-based approach. There were 735 patients with clinical symptoms of infections tested, of which 44 (6.0%) were positive for ESBL-E on genotypic testing. The most frequent organism was E. coli (n = 24, 54.5%), followed by K. pneumoniae (n = 13, 29.5%), Proteus mirabilis (n = 3, 6.8%), Enterobacter cloacae cplx (n = 2, 4.5%), and Klebsiella oxytoca (n = 2, 4.5%). Overall, 31 (70.5%) of the ESBL-E isolates carried only blaCTX-M-1-like genes, and the genes were found to be blaCTX-M-15 (n = 30, 68.2%) or blaCTX-M-3 (n = 1, 2.3%). Eleven strains (25%) had blaCTX-M-9-like genes, mostly blaCTX-M-27 (n = 10, 22.7%) and unique blaCTX-M-65 (n = 1, 2.3%). One isolate possessed both blaCTX-M-15 and blaCTX-M-27 genes, and another one produced TEM-12 ESBL. MLST analysis revealed E. coli sequence type (ST) 131 and ST361, and K. pneumoniae ST16, ST307, and ST437. Among E. coli isolates, the B2 phylogenetic group was predominant. Most of the strains showed resistance to third-generation cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones, and susceptibility to aminoglycosides and carbapenems. Patients with solid cancer and ESBL-E infections require special management since they are a population with a high threat of antibiotic-resistant infections. Carbapenems and aminoglycosides remain active antibiotics against these infections.

Abstract
Extended-spectrum cephalosporin (ESC) resistance remains a threat since ESC are important antimicrobials used to treat infections in humans and animals. Escherichia coli is an important source of ESC-resistance genes, such as those encoding extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs). E. coli is a common commensal of lambs. Reports that contaminated food can be a source of ESC-resistant bacteria in humans and that ESBL-producing E. coli are found in sheep in Brazil led us to survey their presence in retail lamb meat. Twenty-five samples intended for human consumption were screened for ESC-resistant E. coli, and the isolates were characterized. IncI1-blaCTX-M-8 and IncHI2-blaCTX-M-2 were the main plasmids responsible for ESC resistance. The plasmids harbored common ESBL genes in Enterobacteriaceae from food-producing animals in Brazil. IncI1-blaCTX-M-14 and IncF-blaCTX-M-55 plasmids, associated with human infections, were also detected. Few CTX-M-producing E. coli have been clustered by typing methods, and some may be genetically pathogenic. The findings indicate the presence of diverse strains of E. coli, harboring important ESBL genes, in lamb meat in Brazil. Surveillance of ESC-resistant bacteria could reduce the spread of antimicrobial resistance through the food chain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacterales-(Ent) infections are increasing in pediatrics. Before CTX-M ESBL emerged, the most common infection-associated ESBL genes were TEM and SHV-type ESBLs. We sought to define the current epidemiology of Ent infections in children due to blaTEM and blaSHV (TEM-SHV-Ent). METHODS A retrospective case-control analysis of children with TEM-SHV-Ent infections at 3 Chicago-area hospitals was performed. Cases had extended-spectrum-cephalosporin (ESC)-resistant infections due to blaTEM or blaSHV. DNA analysis assessed β-lactamase (bla) genes, multilocus sequence types, and E. coli phylogenetic grouping. Controls had ESC-susceptible Ent infections, matched 3:1 to cases by age, source, and hospital. Clinical-epidemiologic infection predictors were assessed. RESULTS Of 356 ESC-R-Ent isolates from children (median 4.3 years), 38 (10.7%) were positive solely for blaTEM-ESBL (26%) or blaSHV-ESBL genes (74%). Predominant organisms were Klebsiella (34.2%) and E. coli (31.6%); 67% of E. coli were phylogroup B2. Multilocus sequence types revealed multiple strains, 58% resistant to ≥3 antibiotic classes. On multivariable analysis, children with TEM-SHV-Ent infections more often had recent inpatient care (OR, 8.2), yet were diagnosed mostly as outpatients (OR, 25.6) and less in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (OR, 0.036) than controls. TEM-SHV-Ent patients had more gastrointestinal (OR, 23.7) and renal comorbidities (OR, 4.2). Differences in demographics, antibiotic exposure, and foreign bodies were not found. CONCLUSION TEM-SHV-Ent are commonly linked to inpatient exposures in children with chronic conditions but most often present in outpatient settings. Clinicians should be aware of the potential increased risk for TEM-SHV-Ent infections in outpatients with gastrointestinal and renal comorbidities and histories of prolonged hospital stays.

Ma R, Wang Y, Zhao S, Yin M, Fang W. The composition of the microbial community associated with Macrobrachium rosenbergii zoeae varies throughout larval development. JOURNAL OF FISH DISEASES 2020; 43:413-421. [PMID: 32056230 DOI: 10.1111/jfd.13139] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2019] [Revised: 01/04/2020] [Accepted: 01/06/2020] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
The giant river prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, is an economically important freshwater prawn. The cultivation of zoea larvae is crucial for the success of the M. rosenbergii industry. In this study, we surveyed the microbial community diversity and structure associated with M. rosenbergii zoeae at different stages of larval development. Samples of zoea larvae from different developmental stages were collected and subjected to high-throughput DNA sequencing. Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria were the dominant phyla in all six sample groups. At the genus level, the relative abundance of Bacillus decreased, and that of Enterobacter increased with the growth of the zoeae. This may have been related to the intestinal development of the zoea larvae. The microbial diversity of M. rosenbergii zoea larvae decreased significantly with development. The beta diversity analysis showed that the closer the developmental stage of M. rosenbergii, the more similar the structure of the associated bacterial communities.

A Pilot Study of Chicago Waterways as Reservoirs of Multidrug-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae (MDR-Ent) in a High-Risk Region for Community-Acquired MDR-Ent Infection in Children. Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2020; 64:AAC.02310-19. [PMID: 32015040 DOI: 10.1128/aac.02310-19] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2019] [Accepted: 01/23/2020] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Community-acquired multidrug resistant Enterobacteriaceae (MDR-Ent) infections continue to increase in the United States. In prior studies, we identified neighboring regions in Chicago, Illinois, where children have 5 to 6 times greater odds of MDR-Ent infections. To prevent community spread of MDR-Ent, we need to identify the MDR-Ent reservoirs. A pilot study of 4 Chicago waterways for MDR-Ent and associated antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) was conducted. Three waterways (A1 to A3) are labeled safe for "incidental contact recreation" (e.g., kayaking), and A4 is a nonrecreational waterway that carries nondisinfected water. Surface water samples were collected and processed for standard bacterial culture and shotgun metagenomic sequencing. Generally, A3 and A4 (neighboring waterways which are not hydraulically connected) were strikingly similar in bacterial taxa, ARG profiles, and abundances of corresponding clades and genera within the Enterobacteriaceae Additionally, total ARG abundances recovered from the full microbial community were strongly correlated between A3 and A4 (R 2 = 0.97). Escherichia coli numbers (per 100 ml water) were highest in A4 (783 most probable number [MPN]) and A3 (200 MPN) relative to A2 (84 MPN) and A1 (32 MPN). We found concerning ARGs in Enterobacteriaceae such as MCR-1 (colistin), Qnr and OqxA/B (quinolones), CTX-M, OXA and ACT/MIR (beta-lactams), and AAC (aminoglycosides). We found significant correlations in microbial community composition between nearby waterways that are not hydraulically connected, suggesting cross-seeding and the potential for mobility of ARGs. Enterobacteriaceae and ARG profiles support the hypothesized concerns that recreational waterways are a potential source of community-acquired MDR-Ent.

Lai HH, Chiu CH, Kong MS, Chang CJ, Chen CC. Probiotic Lactobacillus casei: Effective for Managing Childhood Diarrhea by Altering Gut Microbiota and Attenuating Fecal Inflammatory Markers. Nutrients 2019; 11:nu11051150. [PMID: 31126062 PMCID: PMC6566348 DOI: 10.3390/nu11051150] [Citation(s) in RCA: 69] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2019] [Revised: 05/18/2019] [Accepted: 05/20/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Acute diarrhea is a major cause of childhood morbidity and an economic burden for families. The aim of this study is to explore the effect of probiotics on clinical symptoms, intestinal microbiota, and inflammatory markers during childhood diarrhea. Methods: Children (n = 81) aged six months to six years (mean age 2.31 years) hospitalized for acute diarrhea were randomized to receive probiotics (Lactobacillus casei variety rhamnosus; n = 42) or no probiotics (n = 39) orally twice daily for seven days. Feces samples were also collected to evaluate microbial content using a traditional agar plate and next-generation sequencing. Immunoglobulin A (IgA), lactoferrin, and calprotectin were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and compared in different groups. Other clinical symptoms or signs, including fever, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloated abdomen, daily intake, appetite, and body weight were also assessed. Results: Data were collected from 81 individuals across three different time points. Total fecal IgA levels in fecal extracts of the probiotics group were higher than those in the control group, reaching statistical significance (p < 0.05). Concentrations of fecal lactoferrin and calprotectin were significantly downregulated in patients with probiotic Lactobacillus casei variety rhamnosus (Lc) consumption compared to those of the control (p < 0.05). Probiotic Lc administration may be beneficial for gut-microbiota modulation, as shown by the data collected at one week after enrollment. Counts of Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus species were elevated in stool culture of the probiotic group. Appetite and oral intake, body-weight gain, abdominal pain, bloating, as well as bowel habits (diarrhea) were much better in children receiving probiotics compared with those in the control group. Conclusion: Fecal IgA increased during acute diarrhea under Lc treatment; in contrast, fecal lactoferrin and calprotectin were downregulated during acute diarrhea under Lc treatment. Probiotic Lc may be a useful supplement for application in children during acute diarrhea to reduce clinical severity and intestinal inflammatory reaction.
