Abstract
Background Escherichia coli is the most common cause of urinary tract infections and has fluoroquinolone (FQ)-resistant strains, which are a worldwide concern. Objectives To characterize FQ-resistant determinants among 103 carbapenem-resistant E. coli (CREc) urinary isolates using WGS. Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility, biofilm formation, and short-read sequencing were applied to these isolates. Complete genome sequencing of five CREcs was conducted using short- and long-read platforms. Results ST410 (50.49%) was the predominant ST, followed by ST405 (12.62%) and ST361 (11.65%). Clermont phylogroup C (54.37%) was the most frequent. The genes NDM-5 (74.76%) and CTX-M-15 (71.84%) were the most identified. Most CREcs were resistant to ciprofloxacin (97.09%) and levofloxacin (94.17%), whereas their resistance rate to nitrofurantoin was 33.98%. Frequently, the gene aac(6')-Ib (57.28%) was found and the coexistence of aac(6')-Ib and blaCTX-M-15 was the most widely predominant. All isolates carried the gyrA mutants of S83L and D87N. In 12.62% of the isolates, the coexistence was detected of gyrA, gyrB, parC, and parE mutations. Furthermore, the five urinary CREc-complete genomes revealed that blaNDM-5 or blaNDM-3 were located on two plasmid Inc types, comprising IncFI (60%, 3/5) and IncFI/IncQ (40%, 2/5). In addition, both plasmid types carried other resistance genes, such as blaOXA-1, blaCTX-M-15, blaTEM-1B, and aac(6')-Ib. Notably, the IncFI plasmid in one isolate carried three copies of the blaNDM-5 gene. Conclusions This study showed FQ-resistant determinants in urinary CREc isolates that could be a warning sign to adopt efficient strategies or new control policies to prevent further spread and to help in monitoring this microorganism.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Vibrio cholerae undergoes a transition to a viable but non-culturable (VNC) state when subjected to various environmental stresses. We showed here that flagellar motility was involved in the development of the VNC state of V. cholerae. In this study, motility-defective isolates with mutations in various flagella-related genes, but not motile isolates, were predominantly obtained under the stress of long-term batch culture. Other genomic regions were highly conserved, suggesting that the mutations were selective. During the stationary phase of long-term culture, V. cholerae isolates with mutations in the acetate kinase and flagella-related genes were predominant. This study suggests that genes involved in specific functions in V. cholerae undergo mutations under certain environmental conditions.

Abstract
Epidemiological surveys have shown that carbapenem resistance is mainly transmitted across species by carbapenemase genes located on conjugative plasmids. As chromosomal integration of carbapenemase genes has rarely been identified, only a few studies have investigated their advantages to the carbapenem-resistant bacterial community. Here, we confirmed the increased stability of blaIMP-6 on a chromosome-integrated plasmid in an Escherichia coli isolate compared with that on original plasmids in the absence of antibiotic pressure. Although plasmids carrying carbapenemase genes are supposedly lost in successive generations, we found that the complete plasmid backbone was retained in bacterial cells even after the occasional loss of their antibiotic-resistance cassettes. This backbone structure has been observed worldwide to carry various antimicrobial resistance genes. Although the chromosomally integrated plasmid carrying blaIMP-6 could not be transmitted by conjugation, we found that meropenem treatment for 1 wk allowed the plasmid to be released from the chromosome and spread among E. coli strains that were susceptible to meropenem. The copy number of blaIMP-6 on the plasmid was amplified eight times, resulting in enhanced resistance. Although the carbapenemase producers that carry chromosomal carbapenemase genes comprised of small subpopulations, they functioned as stable, long-term reservoirs of carbapenem resistance that could be disseminated via plasmids with amplified resistance upon meropenem stimulation. Although plasmids occasionally lose their resistance cassettes as a scaffold for the acquisition of another resistance gene, chromosomal integration may contribute to the effective sharing of carbapenem resistance within a population, complicating the development of a strategy to avoid the dissemination of antimicrobial resistance.IMPORTANCEAlthough carbapenem antibiotics are the last resort for combating multidrug-resistant organisms, global dissemination of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) threatens public health. Carbapenemases, which are enzymes responsible for carbapenem resistance, are mainly encoded by genes on plasmids that can be transmitted across bacterial species. Owing to the rarity of chromosomally encoded carbapenemase genes, studies investigating their properties in bacterial communities are lacking. In our study, we revealed the stability of carbapenemase genes on chromosomes compared with those on plasmids, which can be lost through the loss of antimicrobial resistance cassettes despite robust retention of plasmid backbones. Following exposure to meropenem, the carbapenemase gene integrated into the chromosome was released as a plasmid, restarting the dissemination of enhanced carbapenem resistance through amplified copy numbers of carbapenemase genes. Chromosomally encoded carbapenemase genes may function as a reservoir of resistance genes within the bacterial community and challenge infection control against CRE dissemination.

Abstract
Introduction. Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) have emerged as a global threat to public health and clinical practice.Hypothesis/Gap Statement. In Thailand, reports describing CPEs carrying bla NDM and bla OXA-48-like genes have been increasing recently; however, data on detailed plasmid analysis and temporal shift of sequence type and carbapenemase type are limited.Aim. In this study, we analysed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data of clinically isolated carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (CPKP) to reveal the molecular epidemiology of CPKP in a tertiary-care hospital in Bangkok, Thailand.Methodology. Seventy-seven non-duplicated CPKP isolates collected during 2013-2016 were examined for their drug-resistance genes, sequence types and phylogenetic relationships.Results. All the tested isolates possessed carbapenemase gene(s), and the major type of carbapenemase gene in 2014-2015 was bla NDM-1, whereas isolates in 2016 harboured more bla OXA-232 than bla NDM-1. Other carbapenemase gene variants, such as bla NDM-4, bla NDM-5, bla OXA-48, bla OXA-181 and bla IMP-14 were detected in some CPKP isolates. Furthermore, this study revealed that CPKP co-harbouring two genes, bla NDM-1 and bla OXA-232 or bla OXA-181, emerged during this period. Notably, such isolates co-carrying the two carbapenemase genes emerged in three different sequence types, even in a single hospital, and then spread clonally. The WGS of CPKP revealed a temporal shift of the predominant carbapenemase genes from bla NDM-1 to bla OXA-232 along with a variation in other carbapenemase gene types within a span of 4 years.Conclusion. Our findings suggest that a substantial change in CPE types occurred in Thailand and potentially in Southeast Asian countries.

Abstract
The control of drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) is a major challenge. The frequency and mutation characteristics indicate the efficiency of molecular tests for the rapid detection of TB drug resistance. This study examined the existence of katG and inhA mutations for isoniazid (INH) resistance and rpoB mutations for rifampicin (RFP) resistance. In total, 178 drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) isolates were analyzed. Mutations in katG encoding and inhA regulatory regions were detected in 136/168 (81.0%) and 29/168 (17.3%), respectively, with the most prominent mutation of Ser315Thr substitution in katG in 126/168 (75.0%), and -15 C to T substitution in the regulatory region of the inhA (26/168; 15.5%). Two distinct katG mutations (Tyr337Cys, 1003InsG) were identified. Of 125 RFP-resistant isolates, 118 (94.4%) carried mutations affecting the 81-bp RFP resistance-determining region, with the most commonly affected codons 450, 445, and 435 identified in 74 (59.2%), 26 (20.8%), and 12 (9.6%) isolates, respectively. Genetic mutations were highly associated with phenotypic INH and RFP resistance, and the majority shared similarities with those reported in previous studies in Thailand and other Asian countries. These data are useful for guiding the use and improvement of molecular tests for TB drug resistance.

Abstract
Heteroresistance is the phenomenon wherein subpopulations of presumed isogenic bacteria show varied antibiotic susceptibilities, and the current gold standard for heteroresistance determination is population analysis profiling (PAP). However, when we conducted PAP to confirm carbapenem-heteroresistance in Enterobacteriaceae, we found some isolates that did not seem heteroresistant despite meeting PAP criteria. Here, we elaborate on the validity of PAP for heteroresistance determination, especially among carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE). We revealed that the bacterial cells that were originally inviable on the selective agar supplemented with a high concentration of meropenem were occasionally viable, likely owing to the hydrolysis of carbapenems by carbapenemases produced by dying cells, mimicking the emergence of subpopulations with enhanced resistance. PAP for CPE is highly affected by carbapenemases produced by the dying populations, and may not appropriately detect heterogeneity in carbapenem resistance among seemingly isogenic clones.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Klebsiella pneumoniae ST258 and ST11 carrying blaKPC are among the most widespread carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniae strains worldwide. Our carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae surveillance in Thailand revealed a nationwide dissemination of K. pneumoniae ST16 isolates carrying blaNDM-1 and blaOXA-232.
Objectives
To analyse the genomic details of this nationwide dissemination by focusing on plasmids and virulence factors.
Methods
Using WGS data of 119 K. pneumoniae ST16 isolates carrying blaNDM-1 obtained in our previous surveillance study, clonality of chromosomes and plasmids of the isolates with carriage of virulence factors was evaluated.
Results
Of the 119 isolates, 111 carried plasmid pKP151_NDM1, and all 104 isolates harbouring blaOXA-232 carried plasmid pKP151_OXA232. These 104 K. pneumoniae ST16 isolates showing chromosomal clonality possessed both pKP151_NDM1 and pKP151_OXA232, demonstrating clonal dissemination of K. pneumoniae ST16 with these plasmids. The isolates had essentially similar virulence factors as those of K. pneumoniae ST16 clones carrying blaKPC, which were recently reported as highly invasive clones in Brazil.
Conclusions
The potential global dissemination of these invasive clones with resistance to several antibiotics highlights the importance of appropriate monitoring and strict standard precautions.

Abstract
Carbapenem-resistant
Enterobacterales
(CRE) are a serious public health threat because of their rapid dissemination. To determine the epidemiological and genetic characteristics of CRE infections in Thailand, we performed whole-genome sequencing of 577 carbapenem-resistant
Klebsiella pneumoniae
isolates and 170 carbapenem-resistant
Escherichia coli
isolates from hospitals across the nation. The four most prevalent carbapenemase genes harboured by these bacteria were bla
NDM-1, bla
NDM-5, bla
OXA-181 and bla
OXA-232. The gene bla
NDM-1 was identified in diverse sequence types. The gene bla
NDM-5 was identified almost exclusively in
E. coli
. The genes bla
OXA-181, bla
OXA-232, and co-carriage of bla
NDM-1 and bla
OXA-232 were found in specific sequence types from certain provinces. Replicon typing revealed the diverse backbones of bla
NDM-1- and bla
NDM-5-harbouring plasmids and successful expansion of bla
NDM-1-harbouring IncN2-type plasmids. Core-genome single-nucleotide polymorphism analysis suggested that bla
OXA-181-, bla
OXA-232-, bla
NDM-5-, and co-carriage of bla
NDM-1 and bla
OXA-232-associated sub-clonal lineages have recently predominated in the provinces from where these isolates were isolated. Thus, we demonstrate genotype-dependent dissemination of CRE in Thailand, which is helpful for establishing infection-control strategies in CRE-endemic areas.

Abstract
Introduction. The emergence and spread of non-typhoidal Salmonella enterica (NTS) serovars resistant to fluoroquinolones and third- and higher-generation cephalosporins is a matter of great concern. Antimicrobial-resistant NTS is increasingly being discovered in humans, animals, food animals, food products, and agricultural environments. Pigs are considered a major reservoir of antimicrobial-resistant Salmonella spp.Hypothesis/Gap Statement. Fluoroquinolone-resistant Salmonella spp. warrant further surveillance and characterization for a better understanding of the bacteria isolated from animals.Aim. NTS isolated from pork from slaughterhouses across Thailand were characterized in terms of their serovars; resistance to fluoroquinolones, third-generation cephalosporins, and carbapenems; and antimicrobial resistance genes.Methodology. A total of 387 NTS isolates, collected from slaughtered pigs in ten provinces across Thailand between 2014 and 2015, were characterized based on their serovars, antimicrobial resistance genes, and susceptibility to fluoroquinolones, third-generation cephalosporins, and carbapenems.Results. Among all NTS isolates, S. enterica serovar Rissen was predominant. Antimicrobial resistance was exhibited in 93/387 isolates (24 %). Although 24 (6.2 %) isolates were susceptible to all the tested antimicrobials, they were found to possess β-lactamase genes, such as bla TEM, bla SHV, or bla CTX-M. Mobilized colistin-resistant genes (mcr) and resistance to colistin were not observed in any tested isolate. Carbapenem resistance was detected in ten isolates (10.7 %); however, bla KPC, bla NDM, bla OXA-48-like, and bla IMP were not present. Among the 93 antimicrobial-resistant isolates, 87.1 % showed fluoroquinolone resistance with the quinolone resistance gene (qnrS) combined with topoisomerase genes parC (T57S) or gyrA (S83E/Y and D124E/G) substitutions, or topoisomerase gene substitutions alone.Conclusion. We found high fluoroquinolone resistance rates among the NTS isolates from pigs from slaughterhouses. The fluoroquinolone resistance mechanism in NTS was associated with the combination of qnrS and substitutions in gyrA, parC, or both. To prevent the transmission of antimicrobial-resistant NTS between animals and humans, continuous monitoring, surveillance, and regulation of Salmonella in the pork supply chain are pivotal.

Abstract
Fifteen Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates harbouring bla NDM genes were identified from blood and sputum specimens of patients at a tertiary-care facility (Yangon General Hospital, Yangon, Myanmar) in 2018. Two of the isolates belonged to sequence type (ST) 11, an international high-risk clone. Whole-genome sequencing and phylogenetic analyses revealed that these two isolates were clustered together with other ST11 isolates originating from other countries. The isolates harboured the bla NDM-5 gene on an IncFII-type plasmid that is prevalent among carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in Yangon but has rarely been found in other ST11 isolates. Our data suggests the regional presence of the ST11 international high-risk clone and its acquisition of an endemic bla NDM-5-carrying plasmid.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) are spreading in hospitals, environment and retail foods in Yangon, Myanmar. OBJECTIVES To investigate whether CPE colonize healthy individuals living in Yangon and whether clinical-related strains are spreading in the community. METHODS CPE was isolated from faecal samples obtained from healthy Japanese residents of Yangon with no history of hospitalization. Isolates were subjected to WGS using short- and long-read sequencers and compared with those previously isolated in Yangon. RESULTS Six Escherichia coli strains harbouring blaNDM-1 or blaNDM-5 belonging to five different STs-ST10, ST38, ST48, ST410 and ST8453-were isolated from 69 volunteers. The ST38 isolates were related to those previously isolated from retail food in Yangon. The ST410 and ST8453 isolates were highly related to previous Yangon isolates including those of clinical and food origins. CONCLUSIONS The analysis suggested the acquisition of blaNDM-positive E. coli, which are disseminating in a clinical setting and through retail foods, by healthy residents in Yangon.

Abstract
The resistance of Enterobacteriaceae to colistin mediated by plasmid-borne mobile mcr genes is an emerging public health concern. This study aimed to explore the distribution and characteristics of Escherichia coli isolates harboring mcr genes from slaughtered pigs in Thailand from 2014 to 2015. A total of 779 E. coli isolates were assessed, of which 61 (7.8%) were found to carry mcr genes, including mcr-1, mcr-3, mcr-6, mcr-7, mcr-8, and mcr-9, together with co-occurrences of mcr-1+mcr-3, mcr-1+mcr-9, and mcr-3+mcr-6+mcr-7. In these mcr-harboring E. coli isolates, mcr-1 (40.9%) and mcr-9 (32.8%) were predominant. Colistin resistance was mainly mediated by the mcr-1 gene, whereas intermediate resistance was noted in isolates that harbored mcr-9, mcr-6, mcr-7, and mcr-8 genes. Most E. coli isolates harboring mcr genes were susceptible to third-generation cephalosporins and all of these isolates were susceptible to carbapenems. Clermont phylotyping demonstrated that mcr-harboring isolates mainly belonged to phylogroup A (44.3%), followed by phylogroups B1 (34.4%), D (14.8%), and B2 (6.6%). Multilocus sequence typing revealed that 25 sequence types (STs) were assigned to 45 mcr-harboring E. coli isolates, whereas the remaining 16 isolates were novel STs. The mcr-1 and mcr-9 genes were mostly predominant in ST101 and ST8900, respectively. This study provides a comprehensive insight into the prevalence and diversity of mcr-harboring E. coli isolates obtained from slaughtered pigs across Thailand. Strengthening of surveillance systems by the government for controlling and preventing mcr dissemination from animals to humans or vice versa is urgently needed. No clinical trial registration number.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acinetobacter baumannii is recognized as a majority opportunistic nosocomial pathogen and caus-ing hospital-acquired infection worldwide. The increasing prevalence of extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (XDRAB) has become a rising concern in healthcare facilities and has impeded public health due to limitation of therapeutic options and are associated with high morbidity and mortality as well as longer hospitalization. Whole-genome sequencing of highly multidrug resistant A. baumannii will increase understanding of resistant mechanisms, the emergence of novel re-sistance, genetic relationships among the isolates, source tracking, and treatment decisions in selected patients. OBJECTIVE This study revealed the genomic analysis to explore blaOXA-23 harboring XDRAB isolates in Thailand. METHODS Whole-genome sequencing of the two XDRAB isolates was carried out on a HiSeq2000 Illumina platform and susceptibility on antimicrobials was conducted. RESULTS Both isolates revealed sequence types of international, clone II-carrying, multiple antimicrobial-resistant genes-ST195 and ST451. They were resistant to antimicrobial agents in all drug classes tested for Acinetobacter spp. They carried 18 antimicrobial-resistant genes comprising of 4 -lactamase genes (blaOXA-23, blaOXA-66, blaTEM-1D, blaADC-25), 4 aminogly-coside-resistant genes (armA, aph(3')-Ia, aph(3')-Ib, aph(6)-Id), 3 macrolide-resistant genes (amvA, mphE, msrE), 1 sulfon-amide-resistant gene (sul-2), 2 tetracycline-resistant genes (tetB, tetR), 1 resistant-nodulation-cell division (RND) antibiotic efflux pump gene cluster, 2 major facilitator superfamily (MFS) antibiotic efflux pump genes (abaF, abaQ), and 1 small multidrug-resistant (SMR) antibiotic efflux pump gene (abeS). Mutation of gyrA (S81L) occurred in both isolates. CONCLUSIONS Whole-genome sequencing revealed both blaOXA-23 harboring XDRAB isolates were clustered under interna-tional clone II with difference STs and carrying multiple antimicrobial-resistant genes conferred their resistance to antimi-crobial agents. Inactivation of antimicrobials and target modification by enzymes, and pumping antibiotics by efflux pump are mainly resistance mechanism of the XDRAB in this study.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The diagnosis of acute (AM) is difficult because of the variable, unspecific clinical presentation. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is the noninvasive gold standard diagnostic tool, but limited availability and high costs make a quick and inexpensive test necessary to clarify the need for CMR. Quantification of high sensitive Troponin T (hsTNT) is a broadly available, specific blood test for cardiomyocyte damage.
Aim
The aim of this study was to evaluate hsTNT as a gatekeeper for CMR with a lower cut off-value for exclusion and an upper cut-off value for confirmation of acute myocarditis as defined by CMR.
Methods
This retrospective analysis included 244 patients (age 39±17 years, 71% male) who received CMR for clinically suspected AM and quantification of hsTNT within 28 days (Median: 2 days) of CMR. CMR (1.5 Tesla) consisted of cine-sequences, edema-sensitive T2 and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) imaging. AM was diagnosed in presence of both, myocardial edema and LGE consistent with acute myocarditis.
Results
Of 244 patients, 78 (32%) were CMR-positive (CMR+) for AM. 166 (68%) were CMR negative (CMR−). Mean hsTNT was 206±454 pg/ml.
HsTNT was significantly higher in CMR+ than in CMR− (604±639 pg/ml vs 20±56 pg/ml, p<0.001, see figure A). 8 CMR+ patients (10%) had hsTNT in the normal range (<14 ng/ml).
HsTNT showed good discriminatory performance in the Receiver Operator Characteristic (ROC) analysis (AUC 0.91, see figure B).
A lower cut-off value of 4 pg/ml had a sensitivity of 98.7% for diagnosis of AM (hsTNT ≥4 pg/ml) and a negative predictive value of 98.2% for rule out of AM (hsTNT<4 pg/ml) as defined by CMR, leading to a reduction of 23.4% of CMR exams. An upper cut-off value of >343 pg/ml had a specificity of 99.4% and positive predictive value of 97.8% for diagnosis of AM, leading to a reduction of 18.4% of CMR exams (see table).
Conclusions
hsTNT showed good discriminatory capacity for acute myocarditis (AM) as defined by CMR. However, 10% of patients had hsTNT in the normal range (<14 pg/ml). A lower cut-off value of <4 pg/ml ruled out AM with very high negative predictive value, whereas an upper cut-off of >343 pg/ml had a very high positive predictive value for confirmation of AM as defined by CMR. Performing CMR only in patients with hsTNT between 4 and 343 pg/ml would have led to a reduction of 41.8% of CMR exams.

Abstract
We performed whole-genome sequencing of Vibrio cholerae O1 isolates from Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam, where cholera outbreaks occurred, to determine their genetic lineages. Core genome phylogenetic analysis revealed that the isolates located in same lineage without regional clusters, which suggests that closely related strains circulated in Southeast Asia.

Abstract
Shewanella sp., the progenitors of blaOXA-48 -like genes are increasingly reported with the possession of different blaOXA-48 -like variants. This study aims to characterize blaOXA-731 , a new variant of a blaOXA-48 -like gene identified in Shewanella sp. isolated from the aquatic environment in Myanmar. Phylogenetic analysis of the blaOXA-731 sequence with other blaOXA-48 -like variants showed that it has the highest nucleotide identity of 86.09% with blaOXA-48 . However, the active site motifs in OXA-731 were 100% identical to that in OXA-48. Whole-genome sequencing analysis showed that blaOXA-731 is not surrounded by any mobile genetic elements. The genetic context of blaOXA-731 was found as similar to other blaOXA-48 -like genes previously identified in Shewanella sp. S1 nuclease pulsed-field gel electrophoresis followed by Southern blotting confirmed the location of blaOXA-731 in the chromosome of the Shewanella genome. Cloning and expression studies showed that OXA-731 has β-lactamase activity similar to OXA-48 and OXA-181, but it has no significant carbapenemase activity. Our results showed the significance of blaOXA-48 -like-carrying Shewanella sp. in the spreading of blaOXA-48 -like genes in the community.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To analyse plasmids carrying blaIMP-6 in Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates obtained from multicentre carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae surveillance. METHODS Plasmids harbouring blaIMP-6 were characterised by the whole-genome sequencing of four Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates carrying blaIMP-6, and compared with the pKPI-6 plasmid, which is widespread in western Japan, through pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, Southern blotting, bacterial conjugation, and qPCR. RESULTS Whole-genome sequencing analysis revealed that three of the four isolates carried approximately 50 kbp plasmids similar to the pKPI-6 plasmid; however, one isolate carried a 250 kbp plasmid harbouring blaIMP-6 (pE196_IMP6). So far, all of the reported plasmids carrying blaIMP-6 were similar to the pKPI-6 plasmid, and this plasmid was a novel blaIMP6-carrier. The size and transferability of this plasmid was confirmed by Southern hybridisation and conjugation experiments. It was demonstrated that the generation of plasmid pE196_IMP6 was due to an intramolecular transposition mediated by IS26, and a homologous recombination between plasmids pKPI-6 and pE013 that was obtained from another carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae isolate in this analysis. As a result of co-integration with pE013, pE196_IMP6 acquired six additional pairs of type II toxin-antitoxin systems that pKPI-6 does not carry. Transcription of all of the toxin-antitoxin systems were confirmed in an isolate carrying pE196_IMP6 by qPCR. CONCLUSIONS This study detected a novel plasmid carrying blaIMP-6, and revealed the origin of this plasmid. Toxin-antitoxin system acquisition could enable pE196_IMP6 maintenance persistently through successions, even without selection pressure by the clinical usage of antimicrobials, generating broad dissemination and longer carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae colonisation duration in patients.

Abstract
Many microbial species have been recognized as enteropathogens for humans. Here, we predicted the causative agents of acute diarrhea using data from multiplex quantitative PCR (qPCR) assays targeting 19 enteropathogens. For this, a case-control study was conducted at eight hospitals in Thailand. Stool samples and clinical data were collected from 370 hospitalized patients with acute diarrhea and 370 non-diarrheal controls. Multiple enteropathogens were detected in 75.7% and 13.0% of diarrheal stool samples using multiplex qPCR and bacterial culture methods, respectively. Asymptomatic carriers of enteropathogens were found among 87.8% and 45.7% of individuals by qPCR and culture methods, respectively. These results suggested the complexity of identifying causative agents of diarrhea. An analysis using the quantification cut-off values for clinical relevance drastically reduced pathogen-positive stool samples in control subjects from 87.8% to 0.5%, whereas 48.9% of the diarrheal stool samples were positive for any of the 11 pathogens. Among others, rotavirus, norovirus GII, Shigella/EIEC, and Campylobacter were strongly associated with acute diarrhea (P-value < 0.001). Characteristic clinical symptoms, epidemic periods, and age-related susceptibility to infection were observed for some enteropathogens. Investigations based on qPCR approaches covering a broad array of enteropathogens might thus improve our understanding of diarrheal disease etiology and epidemiological trends.

Abstract
The diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) in endemic countries is challenging due to high caseloads and limited resources. A simple and cost-effective diagnostic test for the rapid detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) in clinical specimens is crucially needed. We evaluated the performance of an in-house assay based on loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) targeting the M. tuberculosis 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene for the diagnosis of TB in Thailand. A total of 252 sputum samples from suspected cases of pulmonary TB were analyzed. The sensitivity of LAMP was 99.04% (103/104; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 94.76-9.98%) and 72.73% (16/22; 95% CI: 49.78-89.27%) for smear-positive and smear-negative samples with TB-culture positivity, respectively. LAMP detected 20.69% (24/116) of TB culture negative samples but all those were positive by conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The sensitivity of LAMP was higher than that of sputum microscopy while the performance of LAMP was similar to PCR. None of the samples positive for non-tuberculous mycobacteria by culture and PCR were positive by LAMP. Compared to TB culture, the positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and kappa coefficient of LAMP were 83.22%, 88.33%, and 0.75 respectively. Based on the diagnostic performance, we propose that LAMP would be suitable as a potential diagnostic test for rapid TB diagnosis in resource-limited laboratory settings.

Abstract
Introduction. Among the causative agents of bloodstream infections (BSIs), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) or vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) are the key causative pathogens. Their rapid detection directly from Gram-positive cocci-positive blood culture specimens will promote timely treatment and help to implement effective infection control measures.Aim. We aim to develop a PCR-dipstick technique for the rapid detection of MRSA and VRE directly from positive blood culture specimens.Methodology. PCR-dipstick is a PCR-based multiplex detection technique where DNA-DNA hybridization is employed, and the results are interpreted with the naked eye. It was designed to target three drug resistance genes: mecA in MRSA and vanA/vanB in VRE from positive blood culture specimens. A total of 120 clinical isolates were used to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of PCR-dipstick. Then, PCR-dipstick was examined for MRSA and VRE detection directly from positive blood cultures.Results. PCR-dipstick showed 100 % sensitivity and specificity in detecting mecA, vanA and vanB genes directly from bacterial colonies in comparison with multiplex PCR for genomic DNA followed by agarose gel electrophoresis. Further, it could differentially detect multiple resistant genes in pooled bacterial colonies (n=10). Ultimately, PCR-dipstick could detect MRSA and VRE in positive blood cultures in ~3 h.Conclusion. The results of the current study substantiate that PCR-dipstick can be used as an efficient detection system for MRSA and VRE directly from Gram-positive cocci-positive blood cultures. Its affordability and rapidity indicate that PCR-dipstick can be an effective tool for controlling nosocomial pathogens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total pancreatectomy is required to completely clear tumours that are locally advanced or located in the centre of the pancreas. However, reports describing clinical outcomes after total pancreatectomy are rare. The aim of this retrospective observational study was to assess clinical outcomes following total pancreatectomy using a nationwide registry and to create a risk model for severe postoperative complications. METHODS Patients who underwent total pancreatectomy from 2013 to 2017, and who were recorded in the Japan Society of Gastroenterological Surgery and Japanese Society of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery database, were included. Severe complications at 30 days were defined as those with a Clavien-Dindo grade III needing reoperation, or grade IV-V. Occurrence of severe complications was modelled using data from patients treated from 2013 to 2016, and the accuracy of the model tested among patients from 2017 using c-statistics and a calibration plot. RESULTS A total of 2167 patients undergoing total pancreatectomy were included. Postoperative 30-day and in-hospital mortality rates were 1·0 per cent (22 of 2167 patients) and 2·7 per cent (58 of 167) respectively, and severe complications developed in 6·0 per cent (131 of 2167). Factors showing a strong positive association with outcome in this risk model were the ASA performance status grade and combined arterial resection. In the test cohort, the c-statistic of the model was 0·70 (95 per cent c.i. 0·59 to 0·81). CONCLUSION The risk model may be used to predict severe complications after total pancreatectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited treatment options complicate management of infections with New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM)-producing organisms. The efficacy of combination therapy with meropenem (MEM) and cefmetazole (CMZ) was assessed against NDM-producing Enterobacteriaceae. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twelve Escherichia coli clinical isolates harbouring blaNDM-1 and a positive control E. coli BAA-2469 harbouring blaNDM-1 were studied. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of MEM, ertapenem (ERT) and CMZ were determined by broth microdilution. Checkerboard and time-kill assays were performed to confirm the in vitro efficacy of the MEM/CMZ combination. Scanning electron microscopy, kinetic studies and whole-genome sequence analysis were used to determine the antimicrobial resistance mechanisms. RESULTS MICs of MEM, ERT and CMZ in monotherapy ranged from 8 to 32, 16 to 128, and 32 to 512 µg/mL, respectively. In the checkerboard assay, MEM/ERT resulted in no synergy, whereas MEM/CMZ showed a synergistic effect in all the tested isolates. Furthermore, the MIC of MEM in combination decreased by 2- to 8-fold compared with that of MEM alone. The time-kill study revealed a bactericidal effect in 4 of 13 isolates at 24 h. Scanning electron microscopy showed spheroidisation of the bacterial cell in the MEM/CMZ combination; this was not observed in single antibiotic conditions. Kinetic studies indicated CMZ was a better antagonist for NDM-1 than ERT. Whole-genome sequence analysis did not reveal any explainable differences between isolates susceptible and those non-susceptible to combination therapy. CONCLUSION In vitro studies showed the potential effectiveness of MEM/CMZ combination therapy against NDM-producing organisms.

Abstract
The rapidly increasing prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) over the past decade has increased concern in healthcare facilities and the impact on public health. The prevalence of blaKPC (KPC) in Thailand remains very low; only blaKPC-13 has been described previously. This study is the first to describe the characteristics of blaKPC-2-carrying Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, and Enterobacter asburiae in Thailand. The prevalence rate of blaKPC-2-carrying isolates was 0.13% among CRE isolates in our study. Based on carbapenem susceptibility testing, K. pneumoniae C1985 was resistant to meropenem and ertapenem, E. coli C1992 was resistant to meropenem, imipenem, and ertapenem, and E. asburiae C2135 was only resistant to imipenem. K. pneumoniae C1985 carried blaKPC-2, blaSHV-11, fosA, oqxA, and oqxB, while E. coli C1992 contained blaKPC-2 and mdf(A) and E. asburiae C2135 harbored blaKPC-2, blaACT-2, and qnrE1. The genetic features of blaKPC-2 in the 3 isolates revealed identical rearrangement and flanking regions. Analysis of genomic sequences from these 3 isolates revealed that the sequence types of K. pneumoniae C1985, E. coli C1992, and E. asburiae C2135 were ST4008, ST7297, and ST1249, respectively. The 3 blaKPC-2 isolates were from individual living cases. Two cases were colonization for K. pneumoniae C1985 and E. asburiae C2135 and the third case was hospital-acquired infection of E. coli C1992. Although the prevalence of blaKPC-2-carrying CRE is relatively low in this study, continued surveillance and close monitoring are warranted. In addition, prompt or early detection of CRE and strict implementation of infection control are essential to prevent outbreaks or rapid spread in hospitals.

Abstract
Purpose. Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) have become a global concern and a serious threat to human health due to their resistance to multiple antibiotics. In this study, we identified and characterized CPE for the first time in Malawi, southeastern Africa.Methodology. We investigated the possible presence of carbapenemases among a collection of 200 ceftriaxone-nonsusceptible Gram-negative clinical isolates obtained from five Malawian hospitals between January 2016 and December 2017, using both phenotypic and genotypic tests. Molecular typing of CPE was done by PFGE, multilocus sequence typing (ST) or phylogenetic grouping. Resistant plasmids were characterized by S1 PFGE, Southern blotting and conjugation assays.Results. Out of 200 isolates, we detected 16 (8 %) CPE of which all originated from one referral hospital, Kamuzu Central Hospital, in the Central part of Malawi. Of 16 isolates, seven Klebsiella pneumoniae ST340/CC258 carried bla KPC-2, two Escherichia coli ST636 (phylogroup B2) carried bla NDM-5, six E. coli ST617 (phylogroup A) and one Klebsiella variicola carried bla OXA-48. All carbapenemases were plasmid-encoded, but only bla NDM-5-carrying plasmids could be conjugated. Most isolates co-harboured other β-lactamases and consequently exhibited a wider spectrum of resistance to commonly used antibiotics. We observed indistinguishable genetic profiles between strain types, despite originating from different wards, suggesting acquisition during admission and intra-hospital spread.Conclusion. This report strongly suggests a probable existence of highly resistant various types of CPE organisms in Malawi including KPC-2-producing K. pneumoniae ST340/CC258, a known high-risk epidemic lineage.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
Abnormal pulmonary perfusion due to stenosis of the central pulmonary arteries is common after neonatal arterial switch operation (ASO) for transposition of the great arteries (TGA). We conducted a monocentric prospective study in young adults after neonatal ASO for TGA to evaluate the effects of abnormal pulmonary perfusion on the increase of the right ventricular stroke volume (RVSV) during dobutamine stress magnetic resonance (DSMR) and on cardiopulmonary exercise capacity.
Methods
68 unselected patients (age 18–29 years) underwent CMR at rest and under dobutamine stress (10 to 40 μg/kg/min). RVSV, pulmonary blood flow distribution (PBFD) and peak flow velocity were derived from phase contrast mapping in the main, right and left pulmonary artery (PA) at rest and each stress level. A cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) was performed at the same day. All patients reached maximal exercise effort according to heart rate and respiratory exchange rate.
Results
PBFD at rest: 9/68 patients (13%, ASO-S) had abnormal pulmonary perfusion at rest, defined as PBFD >2:1 (right/left or left/right) and/or relevant stenosis of the main PA (Vmax >2.5 m/s). 59/68 patients (87%, ASO-N) had normal pulmonary perfusion.
PBFD under DSMR: (1) In the whole patient group, there was no increase of PBFD under stress compared to PBFD at rest. On an individual patient level, no relevant worsening of abnormal PBFD was found.
(2) Under low dose dobutamine, ASO-S had a significantly lower RVSV-increase (RVSVstress/RVSVrest) compared to ASO-N (see figure). However, under high dose dobutamine, this effect was no longer significant (see figure).
(3) The RVSV-increase under low and high dose dobutamine did not correlate with peak oxygen uptake during CPET, neither in the total group nor in the subgroups (see table). Peak oxygen uptake was not significantly different between ASO-N and ASO-S (p=0,72).
RVSV-increase compared to CPET peak VO2% ASO-total ASO-S ASO-N RVSV-increase/peak VO2% RVSV-increase/peak VO2% RVSV-increase/peak VO2% low dose dobu high dose dobu low dose dobu high dose dobu low dose dobu high dose dobu Pearson correlation coefficient −0.02 −0.05 0.01 −0.22 −0.05 −0.04 p-value 0.90 0.71 0.98 0.56 0.71 0.78
Figure 1
Conclusion
(1) Patients with relevant stenosis of main PA and/or abnormal peripheral blood flow distribution (ASO-S) exhibit a reduced RVSV-increase under low dose dobutamine compared to patients without stenosis (ASO-N). This effect was not present under high dose dobutamine stress.
(2) These findings did not correlate with peak oxygen uptake during CPET, an objective parameter of cardiopulmonary exercise capacity.
(3) Therefore, a conservative proceeding rather than surgery or catheter intervention should be considered, especially in asymptomatic adult patients.

Abstract
Osteo-odontokeratoprosthesis (OOKP) is a technique invented by Strampelli in 1963, in which the patient's own tooth root is used to support an optical cylinder. It uses an autologous tooth-bone-periodontal complex to mount an optical cylinder, which is stabilised by overlying autologous buccal mucosa. OOKP involves two, staged procedures done by ophthalmologists and oral surgeons, and the main contribution from the oral surgeon is during the first stage. To date we have done nine first-stage, and completed eight second-stage, OOKP operations in Japan with a mean follow-up of eight years and 11 months by modifying the original method of the oral surgery. All OOKP procedures were unilateral, and canines were selected as the donor teeth. Patients developed ocular blindness as a result of Stevens-Johnson syndrome, ocular cicatricial pemphigoid, and chemical and thermal burns to the cornea and ocular surface. All eight patients who completed the second stage have been stable, and there have been no major perioperative or postoperative oral complications. The patients' visual acuities were stable with no serious complications. Here we report the technical details of the oral contribution to OOKP.

Abstract
Background Active surveillance has the potential to prevent nosocomial transmission of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB). We assessed whether rapid diagnosis using clinical specimen-direct loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), a rapid molecular diagnostic assay, and subsequent intervention, could reduce CRAB nosocomial transmission in intensive care units (ICUs). Methods A before and after (quasi-experimental) study was conducted in two ICUs at the Mahidol University Faculty of Medicine Ramathibodi Hospital with 3 months of observational period followed by 9 months of interventional period. All patients were screened for CRAB using both the culture and LAMP method from rectal swab and/or bronchial aspirates (intubated patients only) upon admission, weekly thereafter, and upon discharge. During the pre-intervention period, we performed contact precautions based on culture results. In contrast, during the intervention period, we initiated contact precautions within a few hours after sample collection on the basis of LAMP results. Results A total of 1335 patients were admitted to the ICUs, of which 866 patients (pre-intervention period: 187; intervention period: 679) were eligible for this study. Incidence rate of CRAB infection decreased to 20.9 per 1000 patient-days in the intervention period from 35.2 in the pre-intervention period (P < 0.02). The calculated hazard ratio of CRAB transmission was 0.65 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.44–0.97). Risk factors for CRAB acquisition included exposure to carbapenem (hazard ratio, 2.54 [95% CI: 1.61–5.57]). Conclusions LAMP screening for CRAB upon ICU admission proved feasible for routine clinical practice. Rapid screening using LAMP followed by early intervention may reduce CRAB transmission rates in ICUs when compared to conventional intervention.

Abstract
Colistin is used as an alternative therapeutic for carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) infections which are spreading at a very high rate due to the transfer of carbapenemase genes through mobile genetic elements. Due to the emergence of mcr-1, the plasmid-mediated colistin resistance gene, mcr-1-positive Enterobacteriaceae (MCRPEn) pose a high risk for the transfer of mcr-1-carrying plasmid to CPE, leading to a situation with no treatment alternatives for infections caused by Enterobacteriaceae possessing both mcr-1 and carbapenemase genes. Here, we report the application of PCR-dipstick-oriented surveillance strategy to control MCRPEn and CPE by conducting the PCR-dipstick technique for the detection of MCRPEn and CPE in a tertiary care hospital in Thailand and comparing its efficacy with conventional surveillance method. Our surveillance results showed a high MCRPEn (5.9%) and CPE (8.7%) carriage rate among the 219 rectal swab specimens examined. Three different CPE clones were determined by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) whereas only two MCRPEn isolates were found to be closely related as shown by single nucleotide polymorphism-based phylogenetic analysis. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) and plasmid analysis showed that MCRPEn carried mcr-1 in two plasmids types—IncX4 and IncI2 with ~99% identity to the previously reported mcr-1-carrying plasmids. The identification of both MCRPEn and CPE in the same specimen indicates the plausibility of plasmid-mediated transfer of mcr-1 genes leading to the emergence of colistin- and carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae. The rapidity (<2 h) and robust sensitivity (100%)/specificity (~99%) of PCR-dipstick show that this specimen-direct screening method could aid in implementing infection control measures at the earliest to control the dissemination of MCRPEn and CPE.

Abstract
Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) was assessed for rapid identification of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC) in comparison with an immunochromatographic test (ICT) using SD Bioline Ag MPT64 Rapid®. One hundred and fifty-one MGIT cultures positive for acid-fast bacilli were tested for MTC. DNA was extracted from a small portion of culture samples by heat lysis and subjected to LAMP analysis. Of these, 144 were positive and 5 were negative by both tests. One culture that was ICT negative but was LAMP positive was confirmed to have a mutation in the mpt64 gene. The agreement was 98.68% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 94.80-99.77), and the kappa value was 0.83% (95% CI: 0.59-1.00). Good correlation results suggested that LAMP assay is a reliable molecular test for rapid identification of MTC and is practical for use in resource-limited, high burden settings.

Abstract
The spread of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) is an increasing global public health concern. The development of simple and reliable methods for CPE detection is required in the clinical setting. This study aimed to establish a dual-wavelength measurement method using an ultraviolet–visible spectrophotometer to rapidly quantify imipenem hydrolysis in bacterial cell suspensions. The hydrolytic activities of 148 strains including various CPE strains (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterobacter cloacae, and Enterobacter aerogenes containing the blaIMP, blaKPC, blaNDM, blaOXA, and blaVIM genes) were measured and analysed. A cut-off value was obtained for differentiation between CPE and non-CPE strains, and the method had high sensitivity (100%) and specificity (100%) within 60 min. Our system has potential clinical applications in detecting CPE.

Abstract
Background The diagnostic value of hemoglobin (Hb) for detecting a significant hemorrhage (SH) in the early phase of trauma remains controversial. The present study aimed to assess the abilities of Hb measurements taken at different times throughout trauma management to identify patients with SH. Methods All consecutive adult trauma patients directly admitted to six French level-1 trauma centers with at least one prehospital Hb measurement were analyzed. The abilities of the following variables to identify SH (≥ 4 units of red blood cells in the first 6 h and/or death related to uncontrolled bleeding within 24 h) were determined and compared to that of shock index (SI): Hb as measured with a point-of-care (POC) device by the prehospital team on scene (POC-Hbprehosp) and upon patient’s admission to the hospital (POC-Hbhosp), the difference between POC-Hbhosp and POC-Hbprehosp (DeltaPOC-Hb) and Hb as measured by the hospital laboratory on admission (Hb-Labhosp). Results A total of 6402 patients were included, 755 with SH and 5647 controls (CL). POC-Hbprehosp significantly predicted SH with an area under ROC curve (AUC) of 0.72 and best cutoff values of 12 g/dl for women and 13 g/dl for men. POC-Hbprehosp < 12 g/dl had 90% specificity to predict of SH. POC-Hbhosp and Hb-Labhosp (AUCs of 0.92 and 0.89, respectively) predicted SH better than SI (AUC = 0.77, p < 0.001); best cutoff values of POC-Hbhosp were 10 g/dl for women and 12 g/dl for men. DeltaPOC-Hb also predicted SH with an AUC of 0.77, a best cutoff value of − 2 g/dl irrespective of the gender. For a same prehospital fluid volume infused, DeltaPOC-Hb was significantly larger in patients with significant hemorrhage than in controls. Conclusions Challenging the classical idea that early Hb measurement is not meaningful in predicting SH, POC-Hbprehosp was able, albeit modestly, to predict significant hemorrhage. POC-Hbhosp had a greater ability to predict SH when compared to shock index. For a given prehospital fluid volume infused, the magnitude of the Hb drop was significantly higher in patients with significant hemorrhage than in controls.

Abstract
A multiplex PCR was described to simultaneously detect mcr-1 and frequently occurring carbapenem-resistant genes including blaKPC, blaNDM, blaIMP, and blaOXA-48-like in a single reaction. The PCR product sizes of these 4 carbapenem-resistant genes were 232 bp, 438 bp, 621 bp, and 798 bp for blaIMP, blaOXA-48-like, blaNDM, and blaKPC, respectively, whereas mcr-1 revealed 1126 bp of PCR product. This protocol accurately detected those resistant genes in agreement with the reference strains, 127 local carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae, 8 mcr-1 carrying Enterobacteriaceae, and 62 carbapenem-susceptible Enterobacteriaceae. This method will be useful for laboratory application and surveillance of carbapenem and/or colistin-resistant bacteria.

Abstract
The bacterial enzyme New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase hydrolyzes almost all β-lactam antibiotics, including carbapenems, which are drugs of last resort for severe bacterial infections. The spread of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae that carry the New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase gene, blaNDM, poses a serious threat to public health. In this study, we genetically characterized eight carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli isolates from a tertiary care hospital in Yangon, Myanmar. The eight isolates belonged to five multilocus-sequence types and harbored multiple antimicrobial-resistance genes, resulting in resistance against nearly all of the antimicrobial agents tested, except colistin and fosfomycin. Nine plasmids harboring blaNDM genes were identified from these isolates. Multiple blaNDM genes were found in the distinct Inc-replicon types of the following plasmids: an IncA/C2 plasmid harboring blaNDM-1 (n = 1), IncX3 plasmids harboring blaNDM-4 (n = 2) or blaNDM-7 (n = 1), IncFII plasmids harboring blaNDM-4 (n = 1) or blaNDM-5 (n = 3), and a multireplicon F plasmid harboring blaNDM-5 (n = 1). Comparative analysis highlighted the diversity of the blaNDM-harboring plasmids and their distinct characteristics, which depended on plasmid replicon types. The results indicate circulation of phylogenetically distinct strains of carbapenem-resistant E. coli with various plasmids harboring blaNDM genes in the hospital.
