Abstract
The development of drug-resistance in the opportunistic pathogen Escherichia coli has become a global public health concern. Due to the share of similar flora between pets and their owners, the detection of pet-origin antibiotic-resistant E. coli is necessary. This study aimed to detect the prevalence of feline-origin ESBL E. coli in China and to explore the resistance elimination effect of garlic oil to cefquinome on ESBL E. coli. Cat fecal samples were collected from animal hospitals. The E. coli isolates were separated and purified by indicator media and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). ESBL genes were detected by PCR and Sanger sequencing. The MICs were determined. The synergistic effect of garlic oil and cefquinome against ESBL E. coli was investigated by checkerboard assays, time-kill and growth curves, drug-resistance curves, PI and NPN staining, and a scanning electronic microscope. A total of 80 E. coli strains were isolated from 101 fecal samples. The rate of ESBL E. coli was 52.5% (42/80). The prevailing ESBL genotypes in China were CTX-M-1, CTX-M-14, and TEM-116. In ESBL E. coli, garlic oil increased the susceptibility to cefquinome with FICIs from 0.2 to 0.7 and enhanced the killing effect of cefquinome with membrane destruction. Resistance to cefquinome decreased with treatment of garlic oil after 15 generations. Our study indicates that ESBL E. coli has been detected in cats kept as pets. The sensitivity of ESBL E. coli to cefquinome was enhanced by garlic oil, indicating that garlic oil may be a potential antibiotic enhancer.

Front Vet Sci 2023; 10:1104812. [PMID: 37008355 PMCID: PMC10057116 DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2023.1104812] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2022] [Accepted: 02/21/2023] [Indexed: 03/17/2023] Open
Abstract
BackgroundThe development of antimicrobial resistance in the opportunistic pathogen Escherichia coli has become a global public health concern. Due to daily close contact, dogs kept as pets share the same E. coli with their owners. Therefore, the detection of antimicrobial resistance in canine E. coli is important, as the results could provide guidance for the future use of antibiotics. This study aimed to detect the prevalence of antibiotic-resistance of canine origin E. coli in Shaanxi province and to explore the inhibition effect of magnolol combined with cefquinome on MDR E. coli, so as to provide evidence for the use of antibiotics.MethodsCanine fecal samples were collected from animal hospitals. The E. coli isolates were separated and purified using various indicator media and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Drug-resistance genes [aacC2, ant(3')-I, aph(3')-II, aac(6')-Ib-cr, aac(3')-IIe, blaKPC, blaIMP−4, blaOXA, blaCMY, blaTEM−1, blaSHV, blaCTX−M−1, blaCTX−M−9, Qnra, Qnrb, Qnrs, TetA, TetB, TetM, Ermb] were also detected by PCR. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined for 10 antibiotics using the broth-microdilution method. Synergistic activity of magnolol and cefquinome against multidrug-resistant (MDR) E. coli strains was investigated using checkerboard assays, time-kill curves, and drug-resistance curves.ResultsA total of 101 E. coli strains were isolated from 158 fecal samples collected from animal hospitals. MIC determinations showed that 75.25% (76/101) of the E. coli strains were MDR. A total of 22 drug-resistance genes were detected among the 101 strains. The blaTEM−1gene exhibited the highest detection rate (89.77%). The TetA and Sul gene also exhibited high detection rate (66.34 and 53.47%, respectively). Carbapenem-resistant E. coli strains were found in Shangluo and Yan'an. Additionally, in MDR E. coli initially resistant to cefquinome, magnolol increased the susceptibility to cefquinome, with an FICI (Fractional Inhibitory Concentration Index) between 0.125 and 0.5, indicating stable synergy. Furthermore, magnolol enhanced the killing effect of cefquinome against MDR E. coli. Resistance of MDR E. coli to cefquinome decreased markedly after treatment with magnolol for 15 generations.ConclusionOur study indicates that antibiotic-resistance E. coli has been found in domestic dogs. After treatment with magnolol extracted from the Chinese herb Houpo (Magnolia officinalis), the sensitivity of MDR E. coli to cefquinome was enhanced, indicating that magnolol reverses the resistance of MDR E. coli. The results of this study thus provide reference for the control of E. coli resistance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Escherichia coli can cause severe infections. The latter can lead to disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). The importance of an early diagnosis of DIC is illustrated through this case report. AIM Review the utility and shortcomings of representative clinical indicators of E coli infection and DIC. CASE REPORT A 48-year-old man presented with diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting with fever of 2-day duration, during which consciousness was lost for 12 hour. Hematology was undertaken. The coagulation profile, liver function, and kidney function were determined, and blood cultures undertaken. The final diagnosis was acute gastroenteritis complicated by DIC. Meropenem (1.0 g, q8h, i.v.) was started, along with active replacement of fluids. Anticoagulant therapy (low-molecular-weight heparin 0.4 mL, q.d.s.) was given. Plasma supplementation of coagulation factors and albumin was applied. On day-5 of therapy, hematology showed the platelet count, D-dimer level, and prothrombin time to be improved significantly. Low-molecular-weight heparin treatment was stopped and antibiotic treatment was continued for 1 week. The patient made a full recovery. CONCLUSIONS In severe infection, timely assessment of the platelet count, procalcitonin level, coagulation function, as well as rational use of antibiotics, can improve the prognosis of patients.

Abstract
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the most frequent human infections in community and hospitals. This study aimed to determine the distribution of bacterial uropathogens among urinary tract infections diagnosed within the regional hospital Houcine Bouzaiene (Gafsa, South West Tunisia) during a survey of 54 days from the 8th of November to the 31st of December 2017. Enterobacterales strains were tested for antimicrobial resistance by disk diffusion method and extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) production was tested by double-disc synergy test. Strains were further subjected to a molecular assessment of ESBL and AmpC β-lactamase production by PCR. Overall, 173 bacterial isolates were studied, out of which 91.3% were Enterobacterales. Escherichia coli was the dominant pathogen, followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae. High to moderate resistance rates were observed, ranging from 66% to 90.7% for penicillins, from 6.7% to 18.6% for cephalosporins and from 16.2% to 25.4% for fluoroquinolones. Enterobacterales with decreased susceptibility to third-generation cephalosporins (3rd GC) carried several resistance genes: blaCTX-M group 1 and group 9, and ACC and FOX AmpC β-lactamase genes. Overall, ESBLs and AmpC β-lactamases were detected in 57% and 14% of the 3rd GC-resistant isolates, respectively. This study proved the high potential of K. pneumaniae species to develop resistance against commonly used antibiotics. Thus, rigorous monitoring of the antibiotic resistance of clinical pathogens have to be implemented in Tunisia. Our results are very relevant to evaluate efficiency of the Tunisian therapeutic strategies against UTIs and adapt them to the emerging problem of antimicrobial resistance.

Abstract
Background Prevalence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing-Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) has risen in patients with urinary tract infections. The objective of this study was to determine explore the risk factors of ESBL-E infection in hospitalized patients and establish a predictive model. Methods This retrospective study included all patients with an Enterobacteriaceae-positive urine sample at the first affiliated hospital of Jinan university from January 2018 to December 2019. Antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of ESBL-E were analyzed, and multivariate analysis of related factors was performed. From these, a nomogram was established to predict the possibility of ESBL-E infection. Simultaneously, susceptibility testing of a broad array of carbapenem antibiotics was performed on ESBL-E cultures to explore possible alternative treatment options. Results Of the total 874 patients with urinary tract infections (UTIs), 272 (31.1%) were ESBL-E positive. In the predictive analysis, five variables were identified as independent risk factors for ESBL-E infection: male gender (OR = 1.607, 95% CI 1.066–2.416), older age (OR = 4.100, 95% CI 1.678–12.343), a hospital stay in preceding 3 months (OR = 1.872, 95% CI 1.141–3.067), invasive urological procedure (OR = 1.810, 95% CI 1.197–2.729), and antibiotic use within the previous 3 months (OR = 1.833, 95% CI 1.055–3.188). In multivariate analysis, the data set was divided into a training set of 611 patients and a validation set of 263 patients The model developed to predict ESBL-E infection was effective, with the AuROC of 0.650 (95% CI 0.577–0.725). Among the antibiotics tested, several showed very high effectiveness against ESBL-E: amikacin (85.7%), carbapenems (83.8%), tigecycline (97.1%) and polymyxin (98.2%). Conclusions The nomogram is useful for estimating a UTI patient’s likelihood of infection with ESBL-E. It could improve clinical decision making and enable more efficient empirical treatment. Empirical treatment may be informed by the results of the antibiotic susceptibility testing.

Abstract
Objectives We carried out a retrospective study to investigate the drug susceptibility and genetic relationship of clinical Escherichia coli isolates from patients with BSIs in Shanxi, China. Methods E. coli isolates causing BSIs were consecutively collected from June 2019 to March 2020. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by broth microdilution method. PCR was used to detect antimicrobial resistance genes coding for extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs), phylogenetic groups and seven housekeeping genes of E. coli. Results A total of 76 E. coli were collected. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing revealed that the top six E. coli resistant antibiotics were ampicillin (90.7%), ciprofloxacin (69.7%), cefazolin (65.7%), levofloxacin (63.1%), ceftriaxone and cefotaxime (56.5%). Among the 76 isolates, 43 produced ESBLs. Molecular analysis showed that CTX-M-14 was the most common ESBLs, followed by CTX-M-15 and CTX-M-55. Phylogenetic group D (42.2%) predominated, followed by group B2 (34.2%), group A (18.4%) and group B1 (5.2%). The most prevalent sequence types (STs) were ST131 (15/76), ST69 (12/76) and ST38 (6/76). Conclusions This study is the first to report the phenotypic and molecular characteristics of E. coli isolated from BSIs in Shanxi, China. Our results indicated a high prevalence of MDR in E. coli strains isolated from BSIs and a serious spread of ESBL genes in Shanxi, especially the epidemiological bla CTX-M. Phylogenetic analysis indicated genetic diversity among E. coli BSIs isolates.

Abstract
Purpose Klebsiella pneumoniae producing extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) causes nosocomial infections worldwide. The present study aimed to determine the molecular subtyping characteristics and antibiotic resistance mechanisms of ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae strains collected during an outbreak. Moreover, we attempted to reveal the fine transmission route of the strains within this outbreak using whole-genome sequencing (WGS). Methods Collecting cases and strain information were carried out. Outbreak-related strains were identified using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). The antibiotic susceptibility, drug-resistant genes, and molecular subtype characteristics of ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae were analyzed. The fine transmission route of the strains within this outbreak was revealed using WGS and minimum core genome (MCG) sequence typing. Results In mid-January, 2015, five cases of neonatal pneumonia caused by ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae were observed in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) of the Affiliated Hospital of Chifeng University, China. Eight ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae were isolated from these five cases, and two additional strains from another two cases were identified using PFGE. All ten isolates harbored bla CTX-M-15, bla TEM-1, bla SHV-108, and bla OXA-1 genes, and belonged to the sequence type 471 (ST471) clone. A putative transmission map was constructed via comprehensive consideration of genomic and epidemiological information. WGS identified the initial case and the "superspreader". The genomic epidemiological investigation revealed that the outbreak was caused by the introduction of the bacteria one month before the first case appeared. Conclusion As far as we know, this is the first report to describe the characteristics of an ST471 ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae outbreak. The data showed that epidemiological inferences could be greatly improved by interpretation in the context of WGS and that K. pneumoniae strains isolated from the same outbreak contain sufficient genomic differences to refine epidemiological linkages on the basis of genetic lineage. These findings suggested that integration of genomic and epidemiological data can help us to have a clearer understanding of when and how outbreaks occur, so as to better control nosocomial transmission.

Abstract
Food producing animal is a global challenge in terms of antimicrobial resistance spread. Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae are relevant opportunistic pathogens that may spread in many ecological niches of the One Health approach as human, animal and environment due to intestinal selection of antimicrobial resistant commensals in food production animals. Cattle production is a relevant ecological niche for selection of commensal bacteria with antimicrobial resistance from microbiota. Enterobacteriaceae show importance in terms of circulation of resistant-bacteria and antimicrobial resistance genes via food chain creating a resistance reservoir, setting up a threat for colonization of humans and consequent health risk. ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae are a threat in terms of human health responsible for life threatening outbreaks and silent enteric colonization of community populations namely the elder population. Food associated colonization is a risk difficult to handle and control. In a time of globalization of food trading, population intestinal colonization is a mirror of food production and in that sense this work aims to make a picture of ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae in animal production for food over the world in order to make some light in this reality of selection of resistant threats in food producing animal.

J Glob Antimicrob Resist 2020; 21:410-413. [PMID: 32006749 DOI: 10.1016/j.jgar.2020.01.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2019] [Revised: 01/10/2020] [Accepted: 01/13/2020] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Tigecycline is an antibacterial agent restricted for use against carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP). This study aimed to identify the tigecycline resistance mechanism in clinical CRKP isolates obtained from a 60-year-old femalepatient during tigecycline treatment. METHODS Three K. pneumoniae isolates obtained during tigecycline treatment were subjected to antimicrobial susceptibility testing, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), multilocus sequence typing, and whole-genome sequencing and analysis. The function of ramR was confirmed by gene complementation. RESULTS Three K. pneumoniae isolates (W814, W112 and W113) were collected from the patient on Days 0, 10 and 13, respectively, of ongoing tigecycline treatment. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing showed resistance to all antibiotics except tigecycline and ceftazidime/avibactam. The tigecycline minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for strains W814 and W112 was 4 mg/L compared with 16 mg/L for strain W113. The three strains belonged to sequence type 11 (ST11) and had a similar PGFE pattern. Insertion sequence (IS) element ISKpn18 in ramR was identified in strain W113. A parent strain transformed with plasmid pCR2.1-Hyg carrying ramR enhanced tigecycline susceptibility, thus confirming that a loss-of-function insertion in ramR contributes to tigecycline resistance. CONCLUSION ISKpn18 insertion in the ramR gene contributes to the tigecycline resistance mechanism in the isolated K. pneumoniae strains.

Abstract
Cell culture liquid waste containing antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and microbial community were still not received enough recognition, which pose potential risks to human health. Sixty-eight resistance genes and intl1 were detected in eight samples by Quantitative real-time PCR, while intl1 was only detected in hospital group. Meanwhile, the bacterial community was complex and diverse in each sample by 16S rRNA gene high-throughput sequencing, in addition, Morganella and Enterococcus presented a significant difference between two groups. Whole genome shotgun sequencing revealed that Morganella morganii had more resistance genes and virulence factors in hospital group, and three extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) genotypes were found to be blaDHA-5, blaOXA-1, and blaTEM-1. This study provided a preliminary report on ARGs and resistant strains, which reminded people attention to the health risks of potential pathogens in this waste.

Abstract
Background Due to the recent appearance of organisms that are resistant to several drugs (multidrug-resistant) like Enterobacteriaceae that produce extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL, concerns have remarkably increased regarding the suitable treatment of infections. The present study was an investigation into ESBL molecular characteristics among clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli resulting in urinary tract infections (UTIs) and their pattern of antimicrobial resistance in order to come up with helpful information on the epidemiology of these infections and risk factors accompanied with them. Methods In order to conduct the study, 20 K. pneumoniae and 48 E. coli were isolated and retrieved from thalassemia center in Erbil, Iraq during July 2016 and September 2016. The collected strains were analyzed and the profile of their antimicrobial susceptibility was specified. In order to spot β-lactamase genes (i.e. blaTEM, blaSHV, and blaCTX-M), polymerase chain reaction was conducted. Results The findings obtained from multiplex PCR assay showed that out of the collected strains of ESBL-producing E. coli, had 81% blaTEM, 16.2% blaSHV, and 32.4% blaCTX-M genes. Similarly, 64.7% blaTEM, 35.2% blaSHV, and 41.1% blaCTX-M genes existed in the isolates of K. pneumoniae. It was found that antibiotic resistance pattern of E. coli and K. pneumoniae isolates to 20 antibiotics varied widely. It was also concluded that the majority of the K. pneumoniae and E. coli isolates were multi-drug resistant (MDR). Moreover, 75% and 87.5% of respectively K. pneumoniae and E. coli isolates showed the MDR phenotypes. Conclusion TEM prevalence was high among other types of ESBLs. Over all, the most active antimicrobial agents in vitro remained to be the carbapenems.

Abstract
Background We sought to understand the epidemiology and characteristics of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and the impact of the National Action Plan (NAP) on AMR. This information will be critical to develop interventions and strengthen antibiotic stewardship in hospital settings in China. Methods Cross-sectional data collection from the hospital information management system from 1 January 2015 to 30 August 2018. Variables included patient age, sex, diagnosis, hospital department and antibiotic sensitivity test. T-test for two samples method was applied to compare the results before and after NAP implementation. Multivariate analysis with binary logistic regression was conducted to examine the associations of risk factors for antimicrobial resistance. Results In total there were 352,238 isolates in the final analysis after excluding contamination strains and isolates with incomplete information. More than 50% of patients were > 66 years old. 62% were male. 40% of the total samples were sputum. Among the total sample, the total resistance rate was 42% among all isolates. The rate of resistance to all antibiotics declined by 5.3% (95% CI 4.96-5.64%, p < 0.0001) and culture positivity rate declined by 9.8% (95% CI 9.22-10.34%, p < 0.0001) after NAP. Logistical regression showed that the NAP had effect with an adjusted odds ratio of 0.76 (95% CI 0.71-0.81, p = 0.002). Being male, age > 65 years, ICU department, diagnosed with certain diseases were more likely to be associated with antimicrobial resistance. Conclusions Antibiotic resistance rates were high in this teaching hospital. However, the introduction of the China NAP since 2016 followed by hospital policy emphasis was associated with a declining AMR trend. Policies will need to incorporate antimicrobial stewardship with a focus on certain departments, with infection control practices and with increases in vaccination coverage among elderly.

Abstract
Background To evaluate the susceptibility rates of aerobic and facultative Gram-negative bacterial isolates from Chinese intra-abdominal infections (IAI) and urinary tract infections (UTI) focusing on carbapenems and comparing their effectiveness between 2014 and 2015. Methods A total of 2318 strains in 2015 (1483 from IAI and 835 from UTI) and 2374 strains in 2014 (1438 from IAI and 936 from UTI) were included in the analysis. Antimicrobial susceptibilities were determined at a central laboratory using CLSI broth microdilution and interpretive standards. Hospital acquired (HA) IAI and UTI were defined as isolates sampled > 48 h and community acquired (CA) as isolates sampled < 48 h after admission. Results The main species derived from IAI and UTI in 2015 were Escherichia coli (50.86%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (19.20%). Susceptibilities of Escherichia coli IAI and UTI strains to imipenem (IPM) and ertapenem (ETP) were > 90% in 2014 and 2015, while the susceptibilities to IPM and ETP of Klebsiella pneumoniae IAI strains were > 80% in 2014 but dropped to ≤80% in 2015 for UTI strains. Susceptibilities of IAI Enterobacteriaceae strains to IPM and ETP in 2015 were lowest in the colon and abscesses, and Enterobacteriaceae susceptibilities of UTI and IAI isolates to IPM and ETP were lowest in medical, pediatric and surgery intensive care units (ICUs) in 2015. Conclusions IPM and ETP were effective in vitro against Enterobacteriaceae isolated from IAIs and UTIs in 2014 and 2015, but susceptibility to carbapenems in UTIs markedly decreased in 2015.

The genetic background of antibiotic resistance among clinical uropathogenic Escherichia coli strains. Mol Biol Rep 2018; 45:1055-1065.

Abstract
The spreading mechanisms of antibiotic resistance are related to many bacterial and environment factors. The overuse of antibiotics is leading to an unceasing emergence of new multidrug resistant strains. This problem also concerns uropathogenic Escherichia coli strains, which is the most common pathogen causing urinary tract infections. The aim of this study was the genetic analysis of antibiotic resistance in comparison to the phenotypic background of E. coli strains. The characterized collection of E. coli strains isolated 10 years ago from the urine samples of patients with urinary tract infections was used for antimicrobial susceptibility testing (the disc diffusion method) and analysis of antibiotic resistance genes (PCR reaction, sequencing). Additionally, the presence of ESBL strains was analyzed. Fourteen genes were associated with resistance to beta-lactams, aminoglycosides, sulfonamides and quinolones. The genetic analysis revealed that blaTEM-1 and sul2 were present in almost all of the studied strains. Other drug-resistance genes were very rare or non-existent. Otherwise, the phenotypic resistance to fluoroquinolones was well correlated with the genotypic background of the studied bacteria. The presence of particular genes and specific mutations indicate a high bacterial potential to multidrug resistance. On the other hand, it needs to be emphasized that the standard disk diffusion test for the routine antimicrobial susceptibility analysis is still the best way to estimate the current situation of bacterial drug-resistance.

Abstract
Background To evaluate in vitro susceptibilities of aerobic and facultative Gram-negative bacterial (GNB) isolates from intra-abdominal infections (IAIs) to 12 selected antimicrobials in Chinese hospitals from 2012 to 2014. Methods Hospital acquired (HA) and community acquired (CA) IAIs were collected from 21 centers in 16 Chinese cities. Extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) status and antimicrobial susceptibilities were determined at a central laboratory using CLSI broth microdilution and interpretive standards. Results From all isolated strains the Enterobacteriaceae (81.1%) Escherichia coli accounted for 45.4% and Klebsiella pneumoniae for 20.1%, followed by Enterobacter cloacae (5.2%), Proteus mirabilis (2.1%), Citrobacter freundii (1.8%), Enterobacter aerogenes (1.8%), Klebsiella oxytoca (1.4%), Morganella morganii (1.2%), Serratia marcescens (0.7%), Citrobacter koseri (0.3%), Proteus vulgaris (0.3%) and others (1.0%). Non- Enterobacteriaceae (18.9%) included Pseudomonas aeruginosa (9.8%), Acinetobacter baumannii (6.7%), Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (0.9%), Aeromonas hydrophila (0.4%) and others (1.1%). ESBL-screen positive Escherichia coli isolates (ESBL+) showed a decreasing trend from 67.5% in 2012 to 58.9% in 2014 of all Escherichia coli isolates and the percentage of ESBL+ Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates also decreased from 2012 through 2014 (40.4% to 26.6%), which was due to reduced percentages of ESBL+ isolates in HA IAIs for both bacteria. The overall susceptibilities of all 5160 IAI isolates were 87.53% to amikacin (AMK), 78.12% to piperacillin-tazobactam (TZP) 81.41% to imipenem (IMP) and 73.12% to ertapenem (ETP). The susceptibility of ESBL-screen positive Escherichia coli strains was 96.77%–98.8% to IPM, 91.26%–93.16% to ETP, 89.48%–92.75% to AMK and 84.86%–89.34% to TZP, while ESBL-screen positive Klebsiella pneumoniae strains were 70.56%–80.15% susceptible to ETP, 80.0%–87.5% to IPM, 83.82%–87.06% to AMK and 63.53%–68.38% to TZP within the three year study. Susceptibilities to all cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones were less than 50% beside 66.5% and 56.07% to cefoxitin (FOX) for ESBL+ Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae strains respectively. Conclusions The total ESBL+ rates decreased in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae IAI isolates due to fewer prevalence in HA infections. IPM, ETP and AMK were the most effective antimicrobials against ESBL+ Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae IAI isolates in 2012–2014 and a change of fluoroquinolone regimens for Chinese IAIs is recommended.
