Intestinal colonization with multidrug-resistant Enterobacterales: screening, epidemiology, clinical impact, and strategies to decolonize carriers

Edgar I. Campos-Madueno, Melika Moradi, Yasmine Eddoubaji, Fatemeh Shahi, Sina Moradi, Odette J. Bernasconi, Aline I. Moser, Andrea Endimiani

Summary: Infections caused by ESBL- and/or carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (Ent) have had a significant clinical impact globally. These multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens, particularly Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae, can cause infections originating from asymptomatic intestinal colonization, leading to potential transmission. Rapid identification of gut carriers is important for preventing serious infections and transmission. This review summarizes various aspects of intestinal colonization by MDR-Ent, including screening techniques, prevalence and risk factors, clinical impact, colonization duration, and strategies for decolonization.

Complete Genome Sequence of Entomomonas sp. Strain E2T0, Isolated from the Darkling Beetle Zophobas morio Larvae

Aline I. Moser, Yasmine Eddoubaji, Edgar I. Campos-Madueno, Andrea Endimiani

Summary: This study presents the complete genome sequence of Entomomonas sp. E2T0, a strain isolated from larvae of the darkling beetle Zophobas morio. The isolate was found to be fully resistant to aztreonam and carried a novel class D beta-lactamase gene. The genome consists of a chromosome and a plasmid, totaling 3,325,929 base pairs.

Evaluation of Phenotypic Tests to Detect Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase (ESBL)-Producing Klebsiella oxytoca Complex Strains

Edgar I. I. Campos-Madueno, Aline I. I. Moser, Peter M. M. Keller, Vincent Perreten, Laurent Poirel, Patrice Nordmann, Andrea Endimiani

Summary: KoC species overproduce OXY beta-lactamases, leading to reduced susceptibility to piperacillin-tazobactam, expanded-spectrum cephalosporins, and aztreonam. Whole-genome sequencing and susceptibility testing were used to characterize 44 KoC strains, showing phenotypic differences between ESBL producers and hyperproducers of OXYs. Only cefepime/cefepime-clavulanate combination disk tests or the double-disk synergy test could accurately distinguish between these two groups.

High Prevalence of Livestock-Associated Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Hungarian Pig Farms and Genomic Evidence for the Spillover of the Pathogen to Humans

Ervin Albert, Rita Sipos, Vincent Perreten, Akos Toth, Erika Ungvari, Marton Papp, Adam Dan, Imre Biksi

Summary: In Hungary, a study found that 83% of pig farms and 70% of swine professionals were carriers of Livestock-Associated Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (LA-MRSA). The study highlights the significant increase in the occurrence of LA-MRSA in the swine industry in Hungary, calling for a reassessment of the risk it poses to public health.

Plasma procalcitonin kinetics in healthy dogs and dogs undergoing tibial plateau leveling osteotomy

Johanna Rompf, Bianca Hettlich, Berenice Lutz, Eliane Marti, Jelena Mirkovitch, Laureen Peters, Katja-Nicole Adamik, Gertraud Schupbach-Regula, Barbara Willi, Simone Schuller

Summary: This study analyzed the kinetics of plasma procalcitonin (PCT) in healthy dogs and dogs with canine cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) rupture undergoing tibial plateau leveling osteotomy (TPLO). The results showed that CCL rupture as well as anesthesia, arthroscopy, and TPLO do not affect pPCT concentrations in dogs with uncomplicated recovery. Individual serial measurements should be considered due to the high intraindividual variability.

Neher, Vincent Perreten, Alban Ramette, Tim Roloff, Jacques Schrenzel, Helena M. B. Seth-Smith, Roger Stephan, Dillenn Terumalai, Fanny Wegner, Adrian Egli

Summary: The SPSP is a secure platform that enables surveillance and monitoring of pathogens in human, veterinary, environmental, and foodborne sources. It utilizes whole genome sequencing data and metadata to quickly track and monitor the transmission and outbreak of pathogens. It provides controlled data access, complex dynamic queries, dedicated dashboards, and automated data sharing with international repositories, aiming to improve public health and societal well-being.

Escherichia ruysiae May Serve as a Reservoir of Antibiotic Resistance Genes across Multiple Settings and Regions

Edgar I. I. Campos-Madueno, Claudia Aldeia, Parham Sendi, Andrea Endimiani

Summary: Escherichia ruysiae is a newly discovered bacteria commonly found in animals and the environment. It has the potential to colonize the human intestinal tract and carry antibiotic resistance genes, emphasizing the need for monitoring and research.

Penicillin-Susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae Meningitis in Adults: Does the Ceftriaxone Dosing Matter?

Samuel Raemy, Carlo Casanova, Rossella Baldan, Erin Barreto, Aaron J. Tande, Andrea Endimiani, Stephen L. Leib, Urs Fischer, Parham Sendi

Summary: The recommended dosing regimen for acute bacterial meningitis in adults with penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae is either 2 g every 12 h or a single dose of 2 g every 24 h. This study aimed to evaluate ceftriaxone susceptibility and clinical outcomes following different dosing regimens. The results showed that all isolates were susceptible to ceftriaxone and there was no statistical difference in outcome between the two dosing regimens.

Complete Genome Sequence of the First Colistin-Resistant Raoultella electrica Strain

Summary: We report the complete genome sequence of a colistin-resistant Raoultella electrica strain (MIC, >4 μg/mL) isolated from the stool of a healthy individual in India. The genome consists of a chromosome and three plasmids (5,455,992-bp and 98,913-bp, 4,232-bp, and 3,961-bp, respectively). No previously known colistin resistance mechanisms were identified.

Whole-Genome Sequences of a Lactobacillus melliventris Strain and Its Myovirus Temperate Phage, phIBH004, Isolated from the Digestive Tract of Apis mellifera in Switzerland

Andrew F. Brown, Judith Pfister, Javier E. Fernandez, Valentina Dona, Victor Rodriguez, Gina Retschnig, Alexandra Collaud, Peter Neumann, Vincent Perreten

Summary: The complete genome sequence of Lactobacillus melliventris strain IBH004, isolated from the gut of a honeybee worker (Apis mellifera) and containing two plasmids and a temperate phage, was determined using hybrid assembly of Oxford Nanopore and Illumina reads. Phage-sequence relationships were identified from the coding sequences, and a proteomic tree was constructed.

Do quantitative levels of antispike-IgG antibodies aid in predicting protection from SARS-CoV-2 infection? Results from a longitudinal study in a police cohort

Summary: In a cohort study, researchers examined the factors associated with changes in anti-S1 IgG antibody levels over time in vaccinated individuals. They found that higher antibody levels were associated with protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection, with a stronger association during the Omicron period. However, the impact of these antibody levels on predicting infection protection was limited.

Novel macrolide-lincosamide-streptogramin B resistance gene erm(56) in Trueperella pyogenes

Emma Marchionatti, Vincent Perreten

Summary: A novel 23S ribosomal RNA methylase gene erm(56) flanked by insertion sequence IS6100 was identified in a Trueperella pyogenes isolated from the abscess of a dog and was also present in another T. pyogenes and in Rothia nasimurium from livestock. It was shown to confer resistance to macrolide, lincosamide, streptogramin B antibiotics in T. pyogenes and E. coli, indicating functionality in both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The detection of erm(56) on different elements in unrelated bacteria from different animal sources and geographical origins suggests that it has been independently acquired and likely selected by the use of antibiotics in animals.

Emergence of OXA-48-producing Enterobacter hormaechei in a Swiss companion animal clinic and their genetic relationship to clinical human isolates

Valentina Dona, Patrice Nordmann, Sonja Kittl, Simone Schuller, Maxime Bouvier, Laurent Poirel, Andrea Endimiani, Vincent Perreten

Summary: A study in Switzerland found that Enterobacter hormaechei producing the carbapenemase OXA-48 was identified in companion animals and human patients. The study analyzed the genetic relatedness of these strains and their mobile genetic elements and found a connection between antimicrobial resistance in E. hormaechei and animals and humans in the same environment.
