Evaluation of predictors of third-generation cephalosporin non-susceptibility and factors affecting recurrence or death in bacteremia caused by Citrobacter freundii complex , Enterobacter cloacae complex, and Klebsiella aerogenes. J Chemother 2024:1-11. [PMID: 38451087 DOI: 10.1080/1120009x.2024.2323326] [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: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2024] [Indexed: 03/08/2024]
Abstract
Factors involved in the susceptibility of third-generation cephalosporins (3GCs) to bacteremia caused by Citrobacter freundii complex, Enterobacter cloacae complex, and Klebsiella aerogenes were investigated based on a case-case-control design. Antimicrobial therapy administered 30 days prior to bacteremia and hospitalization within 90 days were common risk factors for the 3GC susceptible and 3GC non-susceptible groups, while hospitalization from an institution or another hospital was a specific risk factor for the 3GC non-susceptible group. We also attempted to examine the factors affecting the clinical outcome of bacteremia. Hospitalization more than 14 days before the onset of bacteremia was an independent factor indicating poor clinical outcome. In contrast, the implementation of source control was an independent predictor of successful treatment. Although a longer hospital stay before the onset of bacteremia was associated with worse clinical outcomes, implementation of source control may have contributed to improved treatment outcomes for bacteremia.

Abstract
Escherichia coli is the most common cause of recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI) in dogs. UTI recurrence comprises of persistent, unresolved E. coli infection or reinfection with a different strain of E. coli. Differentiating between these processes is clinically important but is often impossible with routine diagnostics. We tested the hypothesis that most recurrent canine E. coli bacteriuria is due to recurrence of the same E. coli strain involved in the initial infection. Molecular typing was performed on 98 urinary E. coli isolated from dogs with recurrent bacteriuria from five veterinary diagnostic laboratories in the United States. Of the 42 dogs in this study with multiple E. coli bacteriuria observations, a single strain of E. coli caused recurrent bacteriuria in 26 (62 %) dogs, in some cases on multiple occasions for prolonged periods of time (up to eight months). A single E. coli strain was detected during both subclinical bacteriuria and clinically-apparent UTI in three dogs. Isolates with the P-fimbrial adhesin genes papA and papC were associated with recurrence by the same strain of E. coli. Multiple isolations of a single strain of E. coli associated with recurrent bacteriuria suggests that E. coli may be maintained within the urinary tract of some dogs for prolonged periods of time. In some patients, the same strain can cause both clinical UTI and subclinical bacteriuria. This indicates that in dogs, the urinary bladder may serve as a subclinical, long-term reservoir of E. coli that may cause clinical UTI in the future.

Evaluation of antibiotic resistance, toxin-antitoxin systems, virulence factors, biofilm-forming strength and genetic linkage of Escherichia coli strains isolated from bloodstream infections of leukemia patients. BMC Microbiol 2023; 23:327. [PMID: 37925405 PMCID: PMC10625236 DOI: 10.1186/s12866-023-03081-8] [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: 08/23/2023] [Accepted: 10/22/2023] [Indexed: 11/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND One of the most common complications in patients with febrile neutropenia, lymphoma, leukemia, and multiple myeloma is a bloodstream infection (BSI). OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the antibiotic resistance patterns, virulence factors, biofilm-forming strength, and genetic linkage of Escherichia coli strains isolated from bloodstream infections (BSIs) of leukemia patients. METHODS The study conducted in Iran from June 2021 to December 2022, isolated 67 E. coli strains from leukemia patients' bloodstream infections in hospitals in two different areas. Several techniques including disk diffusion and broth microdilution were used to identify patterns of antibiotic resistance, microtiter plate assay to measure biofilm formation, and PCR to evaluate the prevalence of different genes such as virulence factors, toxin-antitoxin systems, resistance to β-lactams and fluoroquinolone antibiotics of E. coli strains. Additionally, the genetic linkage of the isolates was analyzed using the Enterobacterial Repeat Intergenic Consensus Polymerase Chain Reaction (ERIC-PCR) method. RESULTS The results showed that higher frequency of BSI caused by E. coli in man than female patients, and patients with acute leukemia had a higher frequency of BSI. Ampicillin and Amoxicillin-clavulanic acid showed the highest resistance, while Imipenem was identified as a suitable antibiotic for treating BSIs by E. coli. Multidrug-resistant (MDR) phenotypes were present in 22% of the isolates, while 53% of the isolates were ESBL-producing with the blaCTX-M gene as the most frequent β-lactamase gene. The fluoroquinolone resistance genes qnrB and qnrS were present in 50% and 28% of the isolates, respectively. More than 80% of the isolates showed the ability to form biofilms. The traT gene was more frequent than other virulence genes. The toxin-antitoxin system genes (mazF, ccdAB, and relB) showed a comparable frequency. The genetic diversity was detected in E. coli isolates. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate that highly diverse, resistant and pathogenic E. coli clones are circulating among leukemia patients in Iranian hospitals. More attention should be paid to the treatment and management of E. coli bloodstream infections in patients with leukemia.

Abstract
Background Urinary tract infections (UTIs) and the antibiotic resistance of pathogenic bacteria pose severe threats to public health in the current healthcare environment. Objective The purpose of this study was to assess the frequency distribution of bacterial pathogens causing UTIs as well as the characteristics of antibiotic susceptibility and resistance. Methods The retrospective study was conducted on 32,391 samples of midstream urine culture from January 1, 2020, to December 31, 2022, in Jiaxing. Bacteria were cultivated on blood agar and identified using MALDI-TOF, and their susceptibility to different antibiotics was assessed using the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method and drug sensitivity reaction cards. The SPSS 22 software was used for data analysis. Bivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for multidrug resistance. Results The total number of positive growth samples was 5378 (16.6%), including 3206 females (59.6%) and 2172 males (40.4%). The four most common urinary pathogens were Escherichia coli (39.2%), Enterococcus faecalis (12.4%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (7.6%), and Enterococcus faecium (7.6%). As far as antibiotic resistance was concerned, Escherichia coli had a greater than 50% resistance rate to ampicillin (76.1%), ciprofloxacin (58.6%), and levofloxacin (51.2%). The multidrug resistance rate was high (41.8%). Low levels of resistance were seen to ertapenem (0.1%), imipenem (0.7%), meropenem (0.7%), piperacillin/tazobactam (0.7%), and nitrofurantoin (1.8%). Klebsiella pneumoniae was highly sensitive to ertapenem (100%). The resistance rates to nitrofurantoin, ceftriaxone, and ciprofloxacin were 37.4%, 37.1%, and 35.1%, respectively. Up to 41% of Escherichia coli strains and 26% of Klebsiella pneumoniae strains produced extended-spectrum lactamases (ESBL). Two species of enterococci were highly sensitive to tigecycline and linezolid (100%), and a small number of norvancomycin-resistant strains (0.2%/two strains) were found. Conclusion Escherichia coli and Enterococcus faecium were the most common urinary pathogens in this study. The isolated pathogens showed different sensitivity patterns. Antibiotics should be selected reasonably according to the sensitivity mode of pathogenic bacteria to effectively treat and prevent urinary tract infections.

Previous Antibiotic Exposure Reshapes the Population Structure of Infecting Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Strains by Selecting for Antibiotic Resistance over Urovirulence. Microbiol Spectr 2023; 11:e0524222. [PMID: 37338386 PMCID: PMC10433818 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.05242-22] [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: 12/22/2022] [Accepted: 05/28/2023] [Indexed: 06/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Antibiotic therapy is the standard of care for urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). However, previous antibiotic therapy may impart a selective pressure that influences the population structure and pathogenic potential of infecting UPEC strains. Here, we conducted a 3-year study using whole-genome-sequencing analysis and retrospective medical record review to characterize how antibiotic exposure influenced the phenotypic antibiotic resistance, acquired resistome, virulome, and population structure of 88 UTI-causing E. coli strains from dogs. A majority of UTI-associated E. coli strains were from phylogroup B2 and clustered within sequence type 372. Previous antibiotic exposure was associated with a population shift toward UPEC from phylogroups other than the typical urovirulent phylogroup B2. The specific virulence profiles within the accessory virulome that were associated with antibiotic use were elicited by the effect of antibiotics on UPEC phylogenetic structure. Among phylogroup B2, antibiotic exposure increased the quantity of genes within the resistome and the odds of developing reduced susceptibility to at least one antibiotic. Non-B2 UPEC strains harbored a more diverse and greater resistome that conferred reduced susceptibility to multiple antibiotic classes following antibiotic exposure. Collectively, these data suggest that previous antibiotic exposure establishes an environment that provides a selective edge to non-B2 UPEC strains through their diverse and abundant antibiotic resistance genes, despite their lack of urovirulence genes. Our findings highlight the necessity for judicious use of antibiotics as we uncover another mechanism by which antibiotic exposure and resistance can influence the dynamics of bacterial infectious disease. IMPORTANCE Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common infections of dogs and humans. While antibiotic therapy is the standard of care for UTIs and other infections, antibiotic exposure may influence the pathogenic profile of subsequent infections. We used whole-genome sequencing and retrospective medical record review to characterize the effect of systemic antibiotic therapy on the resistance, virulence, and population structure of 88 UTI-causing UPEC strains isolated from dogs. Our results indicate that antibiotic exposure alters the population structure of infecting UPEC strains, providing a selective edge for non-B2 phylogroups that harbor diverse and abundant resistance gene catalogues but fewer urovirulence genes. These findings highlight how antibiotic resistance can influence pathogen infection dynamics and have clinical implications for the judicious use of antibiotics for bacterial infections.
