Spread of OXA-48 and NDM-1-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae ST48 and ST101 in Chicken Meat in Western Algeria

Summary: The study investigated the prevalence of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in chicken meat in Western Algeria in 2017. It found a certain proportion of carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in the samples, and further characterized these strains with regard to antibiotic resistance, beta-lactamase content, plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance, sulfonamide resistance genes, clonality, and virulence traits. The study concluded that food serves as a reservoir of the carbapenemases encoding genes.

Plasmid-Determined Colistin Resistance in the North African Countries: A Systematic Review

Abdelaziz Touati, Assia Mairi

Summary: In this study, a systematic review was conducted to update information on plasmid-mediated colistin resistance genes in North African countries. The review identified different frequencies of mcr-positive strains in various samples, with Escherichia coli as the predominant species showing high resistance to certain antibiotics. The IncHI2 plasmids were highlighted as likely key vectors responsible for disseminating mcr genes in these countries, emphasizing the need for preventative actions to curb their spread through surveillance programs and restrictions on colistin use.

Summary: This study in Western Algeria identified colistin-resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae in chicken meat samples, with specific genetic characteristics and plasmid profiles. The findings highlight the worrisome spread of mcr-1 producing Enterobacterales in the region, emphasizing the need for continuous monitoring.

Escherichia coli Isolated from Diabetic Foot Osteomyelitis: Clonal Diversity, Resistance Profile, Virulence Potential, and Genome Adaptation

Alexi Lienard, Michel Hosny, Joanne Jneid, Sophie Schuldiner, Nicolas Cellier, Albert Sotto, Bernard La Scola, Jean-Philippe Lavigne, Alix Pantel

Summary: The study evaluated the clonal diversity, resistance profile, and virulence potential of E. coli strains isolated from diabetic foot infection and diabetic foot osteomyelitis, finding that the strains had high genetic diversity and virulence traits. Most isolates belonged to the virulent B2 and D phylogenetic groups, with a significantly higher number of virulence factors compared to other groups. Additionally, the strains showed prevalent resistance to ampicillin, cotrimoxazole, and ciprofloxacin.

Adaptation of Staphylococcus aureus in a Medium Mimicking a Diabetic Foot Environment

Summary: This study evaluated the behavior of Staphylococcus aureus in an in vitro model mimicking conditions encountered in diabetic foot infections. The findings showed that under prolonged stress environmental conditions, S. aureus adapted by developing small colony variants, reducing virulence, and increasing biofilm formation. This research contributes to understanding the virulence and adaptation of S. aureus in chronic wounds.

Nontyphoid Salmonella in farm animals and food products in the Middle East and North Africa: a systematic review

Zahra Bellil, Assia Mairi, Salima Kendi, Abdelaziz Touati

Summary: The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence, serotype distribution, and antibiotic resistance of nontyphoidal Salmonella in animal food products from Middle East/North Africa (MENA) countries. The results showed a high prevalence of Salmonella in MENA countries (12.80%), with Lebanon having the highest prevalence (41.10%). Poultry had a higher prevalence of Salmonella (14.49%) compared to livestock (9.62%). Salmonella enteritidis was the most commonly identified serotype (21.99%), and sulfamethoxazole had the highest resistance rate (78.81%). The authors emphasize the importance of implementing control measures in MENA countries to limit the spread of Salmonella.
