However, mothers delivering by caesarean section routinely receive prophylactic antibiotics prior to delivery, resulting in antibiotic exposure to the infant via the placenta. Previously, only a small number of studies have examined the effect of delivery mode versus antibiotic exposure on the infant gut microbiome with mixed findings.<b>Objective.</b> We aimed to determine the effect of delivery mode compared to antibiotic use during labour and delivery on the infant and maternal gut microbiome at 6 weeks post-partum.<b>Methodology.</b> Twenty-five mother-infant dyads were selected from the longitudinal Queensland Family Cohort Study. The selected dyads comprised nine vaginally delivered infants without antibiotics, seven vaginally delivered infants exposed to antibiotics and nine infants born by caesarean section with routine maternal prophylactic antibiotics. Shotgun-metagenomic sequencing of DNA from stool samples collected at 6 weeks post-partum from mother and infant was used to assess microbiome composition.<b>Results.</b> Caesarean section infants exhibited decreases in <i>Bacteroidetes</i> (ANCOM-BC <i>q</i><0.0001, MaAsLin 2 <i>q</i>=0.041), changes to several functional pathways and altered beta diversity (<i>R</i> <sup>2</sup>=0.056, <i>P=</i>0.029), while minimal differences due to antibiotic exposure were detected. For mothers, caesarean delivery (<i>P=</i>0.0007) and antibiotic use (<i>P</i>=0.016) decreased the evenness of the gut microbiome at 6 weeks post-partum without changing beta diversity. Several taxa in the maternal microbiome were altered in association with antibiotic use, with few differentially abundant taxa associated with delivery mode.<b>Conclusion.</b> For infants, delivery mode appears to have a larger effect on gut microbiome composition at 6 weeks post-partum than intrapartum antibiotic exposure.

Genomics has revolutionized the investigation of such outbreaks; however, to date, this has largely been completed retrospectively and has typically relied on short-read platforms. In 2022, our laboratory established a prospective genomic surveillance system using Oxford Nanopore Technologies sequencing for rapid outbreak detection. Herein, using this system, we describe the detection and control of an outbreak of sequence-type (ST)97 MRSA in our NICU. The outbreak was identified 13 days after the first MRSA-positive culture and at a point where there were only two known cases. Ward screening rapidly defined the extent of the outbreak, with six other infants found to be colonized. There was minimal transmission once the outbreak had been detected and appropriate infection control measures had been instituted; only two further ST97 cases were detected, along with three unrelated non-ST97 MRSA cases. To contextualize the outbreak, core-genome single-nucleotide variants were identified for phylogenetic analysis after <i>de novo</i> assembly of nanopore data. Comparisons with global (<i>n</i>=45) and national surveillance (<i>n</i>=35) ST97 genomes revealed the stepwise evolution of methicillin resistance within this ST97 subset. A distinct cluster comprising nine of the ten ST97-IVa genomes from the NICU was identified, with strains from 2020 to 2022 national surveillance serving as outgroups to this cluster. One ST97-IVa genome presumed to be part of the outbreak formed an outgroup and was retrospectively excluded.

In this study, we performed genome sequence-based analyses of 151 CA-MRSA isolates, which included not only outbreak-related isolates that we previously defined based on identical or similar PFGE patterns but also other isolates obtained during the same period in the same region. Our analysis accurately defined 133 isolates as outbreak-related isolates, collectively called the TDC clone. They belonged to a CA-MRSA lineage in clonal complex (CC) 30, known as the South West Pacific (SWP) clone. A high-resolution phylogenetic analysis of these isolates combined with their epidemiological data revealed that the TDC clone was already present and circulating in the region before the outbreak was recognized, and only the isolates belonging to two sublineages (named SL4 and SL5) were directly involved in the outbreak. Long persistence in patients/carriers and frequent intrahousehold transmission of the TDC clone were also revealed by this analysis. Moreover, by systematic analyses of the genome changes that occurred in this CA-MRSA clone during transmission in the community, we revealed that most variations were associated with mobile genetic elements (MGEs). Variant PFGE types were generated by alterations of prophages and genomic islands or insertion sequence (IS)-mediated insertion of a plasmid or a sequence of unknown origin. Dynamic changes in plasmid content, which were linked to changes in antimicrobial resistance profiles in specific isolates, were generated by frequent gain and loss of plasmids, most of which were self-transmissible or mobilizable.

This study aimed to explore the serotype diversity of 1072 <i>K</i>. <i>pneumoniae</i> and its association with geographical distribution, disease severity and antimicrobial/virulence patterns in India. Whole-genome sequencing was performed on the Illumina platform, and genomic analysis was carried out using the Kleborate tool. The analysis revealed a total of 78 different KL types, among which KL64 (<i>n</i>=274/1072, 26 %), KL51 (<i>n</i>=249/1072, 24 %), and KL2 (<i>n</i>=88/1072, 8 %) were the most prevalent. In contrast, only 13 distinct O types were identified, with O1/O2v1 (<i>n</i>=471/1072, 44 %), O1/O2v2 (<i>n</i>=353/1072, 33 %), and OL101 (<i>n</i>=66/1072, 6 %) being the predominant serotypes. The study identified 114 different sequence types (STs) with varying serotypes, with ST231 being the most predominant. O serotypes were strongly linked with STs, with O1/O2v1 predominantly associated with ST231. Simpson's diversity index and Fisher's exact test revealed higher serotype diversity in the north and east regions, along with intriguing associations between specific serotypes and resistance profiles. No significant association between KL or O types and disease severity was observed. Furthermore, we found the specific association of virulence factors yersiniabactin and aerobactin (<i>P</i><0.05) with KL types but no association with O antigen types (<i>P</i>>0.05). Conventionally described hypervirulent clones (i.e. KL1 and KL2) in India lacked typical virulent markers (i.e. aerobactin), contrasting with other regional serotypes (KL51). The cumulative distribution of KL and O serotypes suggests that future vaccines may have to include either ~20 KL or four O types to cover >85 % of the carbapenemase-producing Indian <i>K. pneumoniae</i> population. The results highlight the necessity for comprehensive strategies to manage the diverse landscape of <i>K. pneumoniae</i> strains across different regions in India. Understanding regional serotype dynamics is pivotal for targeted surveillance, interventions, and tailored vaccine strategies to tackle the diverse landscape of <i>K. pneumoniae</i> infections across India.
