Abstract
Objective
To explore the genotyping characteristics of human fecal Escherichia coli (E. coli) and the relationships between antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and multidrug resistance (MDR) of E. coli in Miyun District, Beijing, an area with high incidence of infectious diarrheal cases but no related data.
Methods
Over a period of 3 years, 94 E. coli strains were isolated from fecal samples collected from Miyun District Hospital, a surveillance hospital of the National Pathogen Identification Network. The antibiotic susceptibility of the isolates was determined by the broth microdilution method. ARGs, multilocus sequence typing (MLST), and polymorphism trees were analyzed using whole-genome sequencing data (WGS).
Results
This study revealed that 68.09% of the isolates had MDR, prevalent and distributed in different clades, with a relatively high rate and low pathogenicity. There was no difference in MDR between the diarrheal (49/70) and healthy groups (15/24).
Conclusion
We developed a random forest (RF) prediction model of TEM.1 + baeR + mphA + mphB + QnrS1 + AAC.3-IId to identify MDR status, highlighting its potential for early resistance identification. The causes of MDR are likely mobile units transmitting the ARGs. In the future, we will continue to strengthen the monitoring of ARGs and MDR, and increase the number of strains to further verify the accuracy of the MDR markers.
期刊介绍:
Biomedical and Environmental Sciences (BES) is a peer-reviewed journal jointly established by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (China CDC) and the Coulston International Corporation (CIC), USA in 1988, and is published monthly by Elsevier. It is indexed by SCI, PubMed, and CA.
Topics covered by BES include infectious disease prevention, chronic and non-communicable disease prevention, disease control based on preventive medicine, and public health theories. It also focuses on the health impacts of environmental factors in people''s daily lives and work, including air quality, occupational hazards, and radiation hazards.
Article types considered for publication include original articles, letters to the editor, reviews, research highlights, and policy forum.
