Characteristics of Meningococcal Invasive Disease in Neonates and Virulence of the Corresponding Isolates.
Background: The highest incidence of invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) is observed in infants. However, its prevalence in neonates (≤28 days of age) and the characteristics of the corresponding isolates are less described. This report aimed to analyze meningococcal isolates from neonates.
Methods: We first screened the database of the national reference center for meningococci in France for confirmed neonatal IMD cases between 1999 and 2019. We then performed whole-genome sequencing on all cultured isolates, and we evaluated their virulence in a mouse model.
Results: Fifty-three neonatal cases of IMD (mainly bacteremia) were identified (50 culture-confirmed cases and 3 PCR-confirmed cases) of a total of 10,149 cases (0.5%) but represented 11% of cases among infants of under 1 year of age. Nine cases (17%) occurred among neonates of 3 days of age and younger (early onset). The neonate isolates were often of serogroup B (73.6%) and belonged to the clonal complex CC41/44 (29.4%) with at least 68.5% of coverage by vaccines against serogroup B isolates. The neonatal isolates were able to infect mice although to variable levels.
Conclusion: IMD in neonates is not rare and can be of early or late onsets suggesting that anti-meningococcal vaccination can target women planning to have a baby.
期刊介绍：
This highly respected and frequently cited journal is a prime source of information in the area of fetal and neonatal research. Original papers present research on all aspects of neonatology, fetal medicine and developmental biology. These papers encompass both basic science and clinical research including randomized trials, observational studies and epidemiology. Basic science research covers molecular biology, molecular genetics, physiology, biochemistry and pharmacology in fetal and neonatal life. In addition to the classic features the journal accepts papers for the sections Research Briefings and Sources of Neonatal Medicine (historical pieces). Papers reporting results of animal studies should be based upon hypotheses that relate to developmental processes or disorders in the human fetus or neonate.
