[PMID: 38036965 PMCID: PMC10688021 DOI: 10.1186/s12866-023-03102-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2023] [Accepted: 11/01/2023] [Indexed: 12/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The fecal carriage of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales (ESBL-PE) is a major driver of the global spread of these antibiotic resistance determinants. Here we determined the rate of fecal ESBL-PE carriage in pediatric hospitals and community-serving healthcare centers serving adults and children in the Gaza Strip, Palestine. METHODS A total of 373 fecal and rectal samples were collected from different hospitals and clinics in Gaza. The antibiotic susceptibility was determined using the disk diffusion method and interpreted according to CLSI guidelines. The bacterial isolates were tested for ESBL production using phenotypic methods (double disk synergy test and growth on selective chromogenic media). BlaCTX-M, blaSHV, and blaTEM genes were sought by PCR. RESULTS Out of the 373 isolates tested, 138 (37%) were considered ESBL positive as revealed by phenotypic tests. The prevalence of ESBLs among hospitalized patients was 39.1% (hospital setting) whereas, among outpatients attending community healthcare centers, it was 35.1% (community setting). ESBL production among Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Citrobacter freundii, Proteus mirabilis, and Klebsiella aerogenes isolates was 52.8%, 39.1%, 26.7%, 2.8%, and 2.1% respectively. Meropenem and amikacin were the most effective antibiotics against ESBL producers (68.9% and 73.6% susceptibility, respectively), while only 15.2%, 22.5%, and 24.6% remained susceptible to ceftazidime, cefotaxime, and ceftriaxone, respectively. Out of 138 phenotypically ESBL-positive isolates, 98 randomly chosen were screened for blaCTX-M, blaTEM, and blaSHV genes. The prevalence rate of blaCTX-M was 45.9%, while blaTEM and blaSHV genes were detected in 16.8% and 5.2% of CTX-M-negative isolates (corresponding mostly for K. pneumoniae isolates in the case of SHV-PCR), respectively. CONCLUSIONS The study revealed an alarmingly high prevalence of fecal carriage of ESBL-producing Enterobacterales among hospitalized children but also in the community of the Gaza Strip. In addition, 30% of ESBL-producers were already resistant to carbapenems, the treatment of choice of infections with ESBL-producers.

Extended-spectrum β-lactamases producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE) prevalence in Nepal: A systematic review and meta-analysis. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 901:166164. [PMID: 37572913 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.166164] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2023] [Revised: 07/09/2023] [Accepted: 08/07/2023] [Indexed: 08/14/2023]
Abstract
An alarming increase in the occurrence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE) has threatened the treatment and management of bacterial infections. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to provide a quantitative estimate of the prevalence of ESBL among the members of the Enterobacteriaceae family by analyzing the community-based and clinical studies published between 2011 and 2021 from Nepal and determine if ESBL-PE correlates with multidrug resistance (MDR). The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines were followed for systematic review and meta-analysis and the articles' quality was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. Of the 2529 articles screened, 65 articles were systematically reviewed, data extracted, and included in in-depth meta-analysis. The overall pooled prevalence of ESBL-producers in Enterobacteriaceae was 29 % (95 % CI: 26-32 %) with high heterogeneity (I2 = 96 %, p < 0.001). Escherichia coli was the predominant ESBL-producing member of the Enterobacteriaceae family, followed by Citrobacter spp. and Klebsiella spp. The prevalence of ESBL-PE increased from 18.7 % in 2011 to 29.5 % in 2021. A strong positive correlation (r = 0.98) was observed between ESBL production and MDR in Enterobacteriaceae. ESBL-PE isolates showed high resistance to ampicillin, cephalosporins, and amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, and blaCTX-M type was the most reported gene variant among ESBL-PE. In conclusion, this study demonstrated an increased prevalence of ESBL-PE in Nepal over the last decade, and such isolates showed a high level of MDR against the β-lactams and non-β-lactam antibiotics. Tackling the rising antibiotic resistance (AR) and MDR in ESBL-PE would require concerted efforts from all stakeholders to institute effective infection control programs in the community and clinical settings.

Distribution and Genomic Characterization of Third-Generation Cephalosporin-Resistant Escherichia coli Isolated from A Single Family and Home Environment: A 2-Year Longitudinal Study. Antibiotics (Basel) 2022; 11:antibiotics11091152. [PMID: 36139932 PMCID: PMC9495048 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics11091152] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2022] [Revised: 08/15/2022] [Accepted: 08/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Third-generation cephalosporin-resistant Escherichia coli (CREC), particularly strains producing extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs), are a global concern. Our study aims to longitudinally assemble the genomic characteristics of CREC isolates from fecal samples from an index patient with recurrent CREC-related urinary tract infections and his family and swabs from his home environment 12 times between 2019 and 2021 to investigate the distribution of antibiotic resistance genes. CREC identified using the VITEK 2 were subjected to nanopore whole-genome sequencing (WGS). The WGS of 27 CREC isolates discovered in 137 specimens (1 urine, 123 feces, and 13 environmental) revealed the predominance of ST101 and ST131. Among these sequence types, blaCTX-M (44.4%, n = 12) was the predominant ESBL gene family, with blaCTX-M-14 (n = 6) being the most common. The remaining 15 (55.6%) isolates harbored blaCMY-2 genes and were clonally diverse. All E. coli isolated from the index patient’s initial urine and fecal samples belonged to O25b:H4-B2-ST131 and carried blaCTX-M-14. The results of sequence analysis indicate plasmid-mediated household transmission of blaCMY-2 or blaCTX-M-55. A strong genomic similarity was discovered between fecal ESBL-producing E. coli and uropathogenic strains. Furthermore, blaCMY-2 genes were widely distributed among the CREC isolated from family members and their home environment.

Gastrointestinal colonization of Extended-Spectrum Beta lactamase producing bacteria among children below five years of age hospitalized with fever in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. J Glob Antimicrob Resist 2022; 30:107-114. [PMID: 35667646 DOI: 10.1016/j.jgar.2022.05.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2021] [Revised: 05/16/2022] [Accepted: 05/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal colonization of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE) is of concern because prior colonization increases risk for subsequent infections. To date, the link between ESBL-PE fecal carriage and the risk of subsequent ESBL-PE infection has not been well established, and information on carriage of such pathogens among children with invasive infections such as blood stream infections (BSI) remains to be explored worldwide. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted among childrenunder the age of 5 years admitted for febrile illness in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, between March 2017 and July 2018. We used rectal swabs to screen for ESBL-PE using selective media, ChromID® ESBL. Bacterial isolates were identified by MALDI-TOF.Blood cultures were drawn from all children. Antimicrobial susceptibility testingwas done using disk diffusion method. ESBL alleles were identified by Real-Time PCR and sequencing. RESULTS The overall prevalence of ESBL-PE carriage was 56% (112/200) and washighestamong children 4-6 months old (17/21, 81%) (p =0.05). Children with BSI had high ESBL-PE carriage (78.4%) compared to those without BSI (53.1%)(p=0.02; AOR 3.4, 95% CI1.20-9.58).The most common isolate was E.coli (64/112, 45%). Sixteen pairs of ESBL-PEisolates(from the gut and from blood)had similar antimicrobial susceptibility profile. We detectedblaCTX-M gene in 97% of all phenotypically detected ESBL-PE; among those,blaCTX-M-15 was dominant (99%). CONCLUSIONS We report a high prevalence of ESBL-PEfecal carriage among children with BSI in Tanzania. Colonization of ESBL-PEwasa risk factor for ESBL-BSI.

Abstract
Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a significant species and a common dweller in the guts of humans and animals causing urinary tract infections, wound infection, otitis media, bloodstream infections, and other complications in humans. Worldwide resistance to antimicrobials is a serious public health problem. β-lactamases production by E. coli is responsible for resistance to frequently used beta-lactam antibiotics. 1) To determine antibiotic susceptibility pattern of Escherichia coli isolated from pus and urine samples 2) To determine ESBL producing Escherichia coli and its antibiotic susceptibility pattern. Retrospective study of E. coli isolates from urine and pus samples was performed by collecting data from bacteriology registers. Gender, age details of patients, number of E. coli isolates, and their antimicrobial susceptibility profiles were collected from the records. Out of 747 samples 102 E. coli were isolated and among them 60 (59%) were ESBL producers. Male preponderance was seen i.e. 59 (57.84%) and majority 68 (66.66%) were isolated from the age group of <18 years. E. coli showed maximum sensitivity to imipenem 88 (86.27%), followed by piperacillin-tazobactam 84 (82.35%), aminoglycoside group 76 (74.5%) and maximum resistance was seen to penicillin groups 92 (90.19%), followed by cephalosporins 71 (69.6%). Urinary isolates showed maximum sensitivity to nitrofurantoin (93.67%). ESBL producers showed resistance to ciprofloxacin 47 (78%). This study helps in the periodic formulation of regional antimicrobial policies and also giving continuous information to the clinicians with respect to the sensitivity pattern along with ESBL production which can help to avert further drug resistance.

Multidrug-Resistant and Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase (ESBL) - Producing Enterobacterales Isolated from Carriage Samples among HIV Infected Women in Yaoundé, Cameroon. Pathogens 2022; 11:pathogens11050504. [PMID: 35631025 PMCID: PMC9143656 DOI: 10.3390/pathogens11050504] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2022] [Revised: 04/20/2022] [Accepted: 04/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
The exacerbation of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major public health threat worldwide. In sub-Saharan Africa, there is a scarcity of data regarding multidrug-resistant (resistance to at least one antibiotic of three or more families of antibiotics) as well as extended spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales (ESBL-PE), isolated among clinical and asymptomatically healthy patients, especially in women living with HIV (WLHIV) despite their immunocompromised status. The overarching aim of this study was set to determine the prevalence and characterize genotypically multi-drug resistant Enterobacterales (MDR-E) and ESBL- PE isolated from vaginal swabs of WLHIV attending the Yaoundé Central Hospital, Yaoundé, Cameroon. A cross-sectional study was conducted among WLHIV during a four-month periods from 1 February to 31 May 2021. A total of 175 WLHIV, of childbearing age and under antiretroviral treatment were contacted. One hundred and twenty participants (120) were recruited and vaginal swabs were collected from them. After culture on Eosine-Methylen Blue (EMB) agar, the identification of Enterobacterales was performed using API 20E kit. A double-screening of ESBL-PE was performed using a combined disc diffusion method and ROSCO Diagnostica kits. An antibiotic susceptibility test was carried out by disc diffusion as per the Kirby-Bauer method and the β-lactamase resistance genes, blaCTX-M, blaCTX-M-group1-2-9, blaTEM were molecularly characterized using a conventional Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). Overall, 30.83% (37/120) of the included WLHIV were colonized with Enterobacterales and the prevalence of vaginal carriage of MDR Enterobacterales among them was 62.16% (23/37). Among MDR-E isolates, the most prevalent species were E. coli (56.0%; 14/25) and K. pneumoniae (20.0%; 5/25). High rates of resistance to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (96.0%; 24/25), amoxicillin-clavulanic acid (88.0%; 22/25) and gentamicin (72%; 18/25) were observed. The resistance mechanisms detected among these isolates were ESBL (48.0%; 12/25), ESBL+ porin loss (8.0%; 2/25), ESBL+AmpC (24%; 6/25), with blaCTX-M, blaCTX-M-group-1,2,9 being identified at 48.0% (12/25) for each of them and blaTEM at 72.0% (18/25). Our findings confirm the high-prevalence of MDR as well as ESBL-PE isolated in WLHIV, and suggest that a real time monitoring system of antimicrobial resistant bacteria coupled with the reinforcement of infection prevention control (IPC) strategies are needed to sustainably contain these life-threatening pathogens especially in the most vulnerable populations.

Abstract
Objectives: The incidence of healthy individuals carrying multidrug resistant Enterobacteriaceae, including extended-spectrum β-lactamase producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E), especially extended-spectrum β-lactamase producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) and extended-spectrum β-lactamase producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (ESBL-KP), is increasing worldwide. Although ESBL-E causes early or late onset of neonatal sepsis, the prevalence of ESBL-E carriage among pregnant women in Indonesia is not clear. In the present study, we compared the occurrence of carriage of ESBL-E among pregnant women in a primary health center (PHC) versus two hospitals. Materials and Methods: We collected rectal swab samples from 200 pregnant women who visited a PHC or were admitted to two hospitals in Surabaya, Indonesia from July to October 2018. The ESBL-E strains were isolated from the samples and phenotypically and genotypically analyzed. Results: ESBL-E strains were isolated from 25 (24.8%) pregnant women who visited the PHC and 49 (49.5%) pregnant women who were admitted to the hospitals. The rate of ESBL-E carriage of pregnant women in the hospitals was significantly higher than that in the PHC. Among the 74 isolated ESBL-E strains, ESBL-EC was most frequently isolated (62 strains), followed by ESBL-KP (12 strains). In addition, blaCTX-M-15 was the most frequent ESBL gene type of the isolated ESBL-E strains. Conclusions: Our results revealed the high occurrence of ESBL-E carriage in pregnant women, especially those who were admitted to the hospitals.

Abstract
Background Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) producing Enterobacteriaceae infections are the major challenges in sub-Saharan Africa. Data on the carriage rate of ESBL producing Enterobacteriaceae among HIV infected children is lacking in Ethiopia. Hence this study was aimed to investigate fecal carriage of ESBL producing Enterobacteriaceae among HIV infected children at the University of Gondar comprehensive Specialized Hospital. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among HIV infected children from January to April 2020. Stool specimens were collected from 161 study participants by convenient sampling and cultured on MacConkey agar. Biochemical identification, antimicrobial susceptibility testing including ESBL production were carried out. Data were analyzed by SPSS version-20 and P-value < 0.05 on multivariate logistic regression analysis was regarded as statistically significant. Results From a total of 161 study participants male to female ratio was 1:1.1. Moreover; 96.3% of participants were in HIV stage-I and 90.1% had at least a year highly active antiretroviral therapy exposure. A total of 186 Enterobacteriaceae, with E. coli 60% and K. pneumonia 16.13% predominance were isolated from 161 participants. Majority of isolates were most resistant to amoxicillin (95.1%) and sensitive to CHL (94.1%), CXT (91.4%) and CAZ (91.4%). There were 71(38.17%) multidrug resistant isolates, 13 of which were also ESBL producers. The overall ESBL carriage rate was 32/161 (19.9%). History of antibiotic use was the independent factor associated with ESBL carriage (AOR 3.23 (95% CI 1.054–9.88)) and P-value of 0.04. Conclusion ESBL carriage rate of HIV infected children was considerable. Previous antibiotic use was the independent factor. Regular screening for antibiotic resistance on HIV patients before prescription and large-scale antibiotic resistance survey including healthy community may be important.

Intestinal Carriage of Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase- (ESBL-) Possessing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella Species among Nepalese Health Science and Non-Health Science Students. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2021; 2021:4767429. [PMID: 33897921 PMCID: PMC8052163 DOI: 10.1155/2021/4767429] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2020] [Revised: 11/03/2020] [Accepted: 03/27/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Infections due to extended-spectrum β-lactamase- (ESBL-) producing Gram-negative bacteria have led to increased mortality, morbidity, and economic burden worldwide. These bacteria can colonize the healthy intestine of human beings and can disseminate in communities and hospital. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of fecal carriage of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella species among health science (HS) and non-health science (NHS) students. This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on 104 HS and 104 NHS students in which one stool sample from each student was collected and processed for bacterial culture and sensitivity testing according to standard bacteriological procedures. Each morphotype was identified and characterized phenotypically. The antimicrobial sensitivity profile of bacterial isolates was determined by the Kirby–Bauer disk diffusion technique. ESBL production was tested by combination disk method as recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute. Out of 208 stool samples, E. coli and Klebsiella spp. were recovered from 203 (86.8%) and 31 (13.2%) stool samples, respectively. Among those 234 isolates, 69 were positive for ESBL which included E. coli (n = 66, 95.7%) and Klebsiella spp. (n = 3, 4.3%). Fifty (42.4%) out of 118 isolates from HS students and 19 (16.4%) out of 116 from NHS students were colonized by ESBL-producers. Compared to non-ESBL producers, a higher number of ESBL-producing isolates were resistant to ciprofloxacin (14.5% vs. 1.8%, p < 0.001), cotrimoxazole (59.4% vs. 16.4%, p < 0.001), and amikacin (10.1% vs 4.2%, p < 0.001). All E. coli and Klebsiella species isolates were susceptible to meropenem. The prevalence of fecal carriage of ESBL-producing bacteria was higher in HS students; however, there was a considerable number of these strains colonizing NHS students as well. This “iceberg phenomenon” of asymptomatic carriage of ESBL-producing pathogens might act as a source of infection in both the community and hospitals. Therefore, surveillance of carriage of drug-resistant bacteria should be performed regularly.

Fecal carriage and factors associated with extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae among pregnant women at the tertiary referral hospital, Tanzania. Trop Med Health 2020; 48:84. [PMID: 33061787 PMCID: PMC7545914 DOI: 10.1186/s41182-020-00271-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2020] [Accepted: 09/24/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Infections due to extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) are increasing worldwide. Evidence indicates that fecal carriage of ESBL-E in pregnancy predisposes women to potential life-threatening urinary tract infections and subsequently increasing the risk of neonatal infections. There is limited data regarding fecal carriage of ESBL-E and associated factors among pregnant women in Tanzania. We aimed to address the gap by determining the proportion of pregnant women with ESBL-E fecal carriage and identify the related factors. Methodology A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted at Muhimbili National Hospital in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. A total of 182 pregnant women at the gestational age of 37 weeks and above were enrolled. Participants’ socio-demographic, clinical, and hygienic information were collected by using a well-structured questionnaire. Rectal swabs were collected and processed for isolation of ESBL-E. The extended-spectrum β-lactamase production and antibiotic susceptibility test (AST) were performed using a double-disc synergy test and Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method, respectively. Results A total of 117 (64.3%) pregnant women were found to carry ESBL-E. Factors such as self-prescription of antibiotic medication during pregnancy, low education level, and toilet sharing were independently associated with ESBL-E fecal carriage. Five ESBL-E species that were isolated include Escherichia coli (84.6%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (8.9%), Klebsiella oxytoca (3.3%), Citrobacter spp. (1.6%), and Enterobacter spp. (1.6%). ESBL-E isolates demonstrated high resistance to aztreonam and sulphamethoxazole-trimethoprim. Conclusion This study has revealed a relatively high fecal carriage of ESBL-E among pregnant women, suggesting that there is a need for routine screening among that population. We recommend further studies to explore comprehensively the factors associated with high fecal carriage of ESBL-E in pregnancy and the potential transmission kinetics to their newborn babies.
