Metagenomic changes in response to antibiotic treatment in severe orthopedic trauma patients. iScience 2024; 27:110783. [PMID: 39286492 PMCID: PMC11403444 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2024.110783] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2024] [Revised: 06/21/2024] [Accepted: 08/19/2024] [Indexed: 09/19/2024] Open
Abstract
We investigated changes in microbiome composition and abundance of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes post-antibiotic treatment in severe trauma patients. Shotgun sequencing revealed beta diversity (Bray-Curtis) differences between 16 hospitalized multiple rib fractures patients and 10 age- and sex-matched controls (p = 0.043), and between antibiotic-treated and untreated patients (p = 0.015). Antibiotic-treated patients had lower alpha diversity (Shannon) at discharge (p = 0.003) and 12-week post-discharge (p = 0.007). At 12 weeks, they also exhibited a 5.50-fold (95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.86-8.15) increase in Escherichia coli (p = 0.0004) compared to controls. Differential analysis identified nine AMRs that increased in antibiotic-treated compared to untreated patients between hospital discharge and 6 and 12 weeks follow-up (false discovery rate [FDR] < 0.20). Two aminoglycoside genes and a beta-lactamase gene were directly related to antibiotics administered, while five were unrelated. In trauma patients, lower alpha diversity, higher abundance of pathobionts, and increases in AMRs persisted for 12 weeks post-discharge, suggesting prolonged microbiome disruption. Probiotic or symbiotic therapies may offer future treatment avenues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES The prevalence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Escherichia coli isolates producing β-lactamase enzyme is a growing problem across the globe. Strain typing is an epidemiologically important tool not only for detecting the cross transmission of nosocomial pathogens but also for determining the source of infection. The present study was conducted to understand the clonal relationship among various β-lactamase-producing MDR E. coli isolates using enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus (ERIC) polymerase chain reaction (PCR). METHODS A total of 41 MDR E. coli isolates were randomly collected from various clinical samples and processed. Isolated organisms were tested for antibiotics resistance pattern. Phenotypic detection of metallo β-lactamases (MBL) was carried out by the imipenem-ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disc diffusion/double-disc synergy test. AmpC enzyme production was tested by a modified three-dimensional extract test. RESULTS Almost all isolates were found sensitive to colistin. A high percentage of drug resistance was observed in these isolates against ceftazidime (100%), cefotaxime (100%), cefepime (100%), ofloxacin (97.56%), amoxicillin/clavulanic acid (97.56%) and norfloxacin (85.36%). Of the 41 isolates, ESBL producers were found to be predominant, i.e., 22 (53.65%), followed by AmpC (6, 14.63%) and MBL (5, 12.19%). INTERPRETATION & CONCLUSIONS At 60 per cent similarity cut-off value, the dendrogram analysis showed that there were a total of 14 unique clusters of ERIC (CL-1 - CL-14) within the 41 E. coli isolates, which revealed the genetic diversity existing between them.

Abstract
The emergence in Shigella species of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) that impart resistance to third-generation cephalosporins is a growing concern world-wide. So far, however, ESBL-producing Shigella have only been reported seven times, albeit from seven different countries. In Lebanon, three ESBL-producing clinical isolates of S. sonnei were recovered from 30 cases of shigellosis diagnosed between July 2004 and October 2005. All three were found to be resistant to amoxycillin, cefotaxime, ceftazidime, aztreonam, trimethoprim/sulphamethoxazole, gentamicin, and kanamycin. Each harboured the bla-CTX-M gene, and the results of sequence analysis indicated this to be of the bla-CTX-M-15 type and encoded on a 70-kb plasmid, flanked by an insertion element (ISEcp1). The bla-TEM-1 gene was also detected on the chromosomes of two of the ESBL-producing isolates. Class-2 integrons containing dhfr1, aadA1 and sat1 genes were detected on the chromosomes of all three isolates but not on the plasmids. Fluoroquinolone-modifying factors [QnrA, QnrB, QnrS or AAC(6')-Ib-cr] were not detected. The results of RAPD analysis, combined with data on antimicrobial susceptibility, indicated that each isolate was unique. In conclusion, the emergence of ESBL-producing isolates of S. sonnei has been demonstrated for the first time in Lebanon. The resistance of these isolates to third-generation cephalosporins was mediated by the CTX-M-15 enzyme, which was plasmid-encoded.

Underlying mechanisms of carbapenem resistance in extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli isolates at a tertiary care centre in Lebanon: role of OXA-48 and NDM-1 carbapenemases. Int J Antimicrob Agents 2012; 41:75-9. [PMID: 23142087 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijantimicag.2012.08.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 85] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/29/2012] [Revised: 08/15/2012] [Accepted: 08/19/2012] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
A recent increase in carbapenem resistance among extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli isolates at a major tertiary care centre in Lebanon prompted the initiation of this study. Consecutive ESBL-producing isolates were tested for resistance to carbapenems, with initial screening by disk diffusion and Etest using ertapenem. The modified Hodge test was also performed. PCR of β-lactamase-encoding genes, including bla(NDM-1), bla(KPC), bla(OXA-48), bla(CTX-M), bla(TEM), bla(SHV), bla(CMY-2) and bla(OXA-1), as well as outer membrane porin genes (ompC and ompF) was performed. Sequencing, efflux pump inhibitor tests and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis were performed. In total, 14 (2.45%) of 572 K. pneumoniae and 24 (1.07%) of 2243 E. coli were ertapenem-non-susceptible [minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) ≥0.25 μg/mL]. Resistance to other carbapenems was variable. PCR and sequencing analysis revealed that isolates harboured different β-lactamase genes, including bla(OXA-1), bla(CTX-M-15), bla(TEM-1), bla(CMY-2), bla(OXA-48) and bla(NDM-1). In addition, K. pneumoniae lacked the outer membrane porin-encoding genes, whilst E. coli harboured them with detected mutations. CTX-M-15 was carried on a 90 kb plasmid, whilst OXA-48 was carried on a 70 kb plasmid. Efflux pump inhibition significantly decreased MICs in E. coli. RAPD analysis demonstrated genomic variability. In conclusion, carbapenem resistance in ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae and E. coli is due to the combined effect of β-lactamases with porin impermeability and/or efflux pump activity observed in these organisms, and in a number of isolates is due to the production of the carbapenemase-encoding genes bla(OXA-48) and the newly emerging bla(NDM-1).

Escherichia coli Isolated from Urinary Tract Infections of Lebanese Patients between 2000 and 2009: Epidemiology and Profiles of Resistance. CHEMOTHERAPY RESEARCH AND PRACTICE 2011; 2011:218431. [PMID: 22295204 PMCID: PMC3263611 DOI: 10.1155/2011/218431] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2011] [Revised: 08/10/2011] [Accepted: 08/13/2011] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the bacterial etiology of urinary tract infections in one of the busiest hospitals of Lebanon and to examine the epidemiologic and microbiologic properties of Escherichia coli isolated from urinary tract infections of Lebanese patients over a 10-year period. Methods. This retrospective study analyzed the data generated between 2000 and 2009 (10,013 Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria). Bacterial identification was based on standard culture and biochemical characteristics of isolates. Antimicrobial susceptibility was tested by the disk diffusion method, and ESBL production was detected by synergy with third-generation cephalosporins and amoxiclav. Results. E. coli was the most frequent isolate throughout the ten years (60.64% of the total isolates). It was followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus sp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterococcus sp., and Streptococcus agalactiae. E. coli occurred more frequently in women (69.8%) than in men (61.4%). The lowest percentage of susceptibility of E. coli was manifested against piperacillin and ampicillin. An increase in the production of ESBL was observed (2.3% in 2000 to 16.8% in 2009). Conclusions. The etiology of urinary tract infections and their susceptibility profiles are important to be evaluated in countries like Lebanon where a severe misuse of antibiotics at all levels is observed.

Abstract
The prevalence of bla CTX-M, bla TEM and bla SHV genes among extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing clinical isolates of Escherichia coli (n = 50) and Klebsiella spp. (n = 50) from Lebanon was 96%, 57% and 67%, and 40%, 82% and 84%, respectively. Genotyping revealed that the clonal diversity was unrelated to the presence of bla genes. Sequence analysis of 16 selected isolates identified the bla CTX-M-15, bla TEM-1, bla OXA-1 and six bla SHV genes, as well as the gene encoding the quinolone-modifying enzyme AAC(6')-Ib-cr. The genes encoding CTX-M-15 and AAC(6')-Ib-cr were carried on a 90-kb plasmid of the pC15-1a or pCTX-15 type, which transferred both ESBL production and quinolone resistance from donors to transconjugants.

Abstract
With the growing frequency of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) among Enterobacteriaceae, treatment of Gram-negative nosocomial infections requires rapid and reliable detection of this enzyme. Quicolor agar (QC agar) (Salubris Inc., Massachusetts, USA) is a novel chromogenic agar medium changing colour within 4 to 6 h due to the metabolic activity of growing bacteria. This study investigated the use of QC agar compared to Mueller Hinton agar (MH) for the detection of ESBL using disk diffusion and E-test. 100 Enterobacteriaceae isolated at Hacettepe University Hospital, of which 50 were predetermined to be ESBL positive and 50 as negative using the CLSI disk diffusion ESBL (phenotypic confirmatory test) criteria. For disk diffusion and E-test, cefotaxime+/-clavulanate (CT/CTL) and ceftazidime+/-clavulanate (TZ/TZL) were used, and for E-test, cefepime+/-clavulanate (PM/PML) was also used. QC agar rapid ESBL results for all strains were in agreement with the standard overnight procedure. All 50 ESBL positives were detected by both methods. For the 50 ESBL negatives, QC agar rapid results from E-test and disk diffusion were in complete accordance with the overnight MH results. Moreover, E-test detected 8 additional ESBL positive strains that disk diffusion missed. For disk diffusion, CT/CTL alone detected all 50 ESBL positives while TZ/TZL alone missed 5 ESBL positives. E-test CT/CTL alone confirmed all 50 ESBL positives and identified 4 additional ESBL-positive strains. When used together, E-test CT/CTL, TZ/TZL and PM/PML identified a total of 58 ESBL positives among the 100 strains tested. QC agar can be used for rapid and reliable ESBL detection within 4 to 6 h, using disk diffusion and E-test ESBL reagents. This rapid method should be further validated using genotype characterized ESBL and other beta-lactamase positive strains.
