We characterized all of the Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL)-positive Staphylococcus aureus isolates collected between 2005 and 2008 in the Bilbao, Spain, area. For the first time, the USA300 clone is reported as predominant among PVL-positive clones in a European autochthonous population, requiring active monitoring of the incidence of USA300 in Spain and throughout Europe.  相似文献

Rapid tests for detection of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) carriage are important to limit the transmission of MRSA in the health care setting. We evaluated the performance of the BD GeneOhm MRSA real-time PCR assay using a diverse collection of MRSA isolates, mainly from Copenhagen, Denmark, but also including international isolates, e.g., USA100-1100. Pure cultures of 349 MRSA isolates representing variants of staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) types I to V and 103 different staphylococcal protein A (spa) types were tested. In addition, 53 methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus isolates were included as negative controls. Forty-four MRSA isolates were undetectable; of these, 95% harbored SCCmec type IVa, and these included the most-common clone in Copenhagen, spa t024-sequence type 8-IVa. The false-negative MRSA isolates were tested with new primers (analyte-specific reagent [ASR] BD GeneOhm MRSA assay) supplied by Becton Dickinson (BD). The ASR BD GeneOhm MRSA assay detected 42 of the 44 isolates that were false negative in the BD GeneOhm MRSA assay. Combining the BD GeneOhm MRSA assay with the ASR BD GeneOhm MRSA assay greatly improved the results, with only two MRSA isolates being false negative. The BD GeneOhm MRSA assay alone is not adequate for MRSA detection in Copenhagen, Denmark, as more than one-third of our MRSA isolates would not be detected. We recommend that the BD GeneOhm MRSA assay be evaluated against the local MRSA diversity before being established as a standard assay, and due to the constant evolution of SCCmec cassettes, a continuous global surveillance is advisable in order to update the assay as necessary.Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a common nosocomial pathogen in countries all over the world. In recent years, community-associated MRSA (CA-MRSA) has become increasingly prevalent and has shown potential to cause health care-associated bloodstream infections (8, 26). Screening and isolation of MRSA-positive patients is essential to control the transmission of MRSA in hospitals (16, 24). However, conventional detection of MRSA by culture takes at least 48 h before a preliminary result is available, and as patients in many countries are only isolated when they are recognized as MRSA positive, the risk of having already transmitted MRSA is high. The real-time PCR BD GeneOhm MRSA assay (Becton Dickinson [BD] Diagnostics GeneOhm; San Diego, CA), formerly called IDI-MRSA, is one of a number of commercial kits for rapid MRSA detection directly from nasal swabs (7) and is based on primers developed by Huletsky et al. (18). The forward primers bind to the J3 region of the staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec), and the reverse primer binds in the orfX region that is specific for Staphylococcus aureus. At least seven SCCmec types are known (types I to VII) (3), and several subtypes, especially of type IV, have been described (21, 27).The BD GeneOhm MRSA assay has been tested in a number of studies (4, 5, 10, 11, 13-15, 22, 23, 25, 29-31). Most studies screened hospitalized patients, but only two studies described the SCCmec types of their MRSA isolates (15, 25). Therefore, it is possible that only a few predominant hospital clones with the same SCCmec types were tested. In Denmark, different CA-MRSA clones dominate and MRSA isolates mainly harbor SCCmec types IV (85%) and V (6%) (2). In-house testing with the Huletsky primers (18) revealed that they did not amplify a PCR fragment from our most-common MRSA clone, spa t024-sequence type 8 (ST8)-IVa. Based on this finding and with the knowledge of the high number of type IV subtypes known, we were interested in finding out whether the BD GeneOhm MRSA assay could detect MRSA isolates from a collection that included mainly CA-MRSA strains. We tested 349 MRSA isolates representing variants of SCCmec types I to V. Furthermore, we chose MRSA isolates of different staphylococcal protein A (spa) types to have a broad range of genetic backgrounds, testing the hypothesis that the same SCCmec type might have minor differences in different MRSA lineages and that these differences could be in the primer regions of the assay.  相似文献

The structures of staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) elements carried by 31 clonal complex 398 (CC398) methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains isolated from the participants at a conference were analyzed. The SCCmecs were classified into novel types, namely, IX, X, V(5C2&5) subtype c, and IVa. Type V(5C2&5) subtype c, IX, and X SCCmecs carried genes conferring resistance to metals. The structures of SCCmecs from CC398 strains were distinct from those normally found in humans, adding to the evidence that humans are not the original host for CC398.  相似文献

In order to find a disk diffusion method with both high sensitivity and specificity for determination of methicillin resistance primarily for S. aureus but also for coagulase-negative staphylococci we screened several methodological variants using a material of 66 S. aureus comprising of 11 methicillin-susceptible, 18 borderline-resistant, and 37 methicillin-resistant strains. Only four of the combinations studied performed with both high sensitivity and specificity. Two of these, the Columbia agar +4.5% NaCl and Mueller Hinton agar +2% NaCl combined with a 5 microg oxacillin disk, confluent inoculum and 24 h incubation at 35 degrees C were further evaluated using 105 MRSA and 91 mecA-negative S. aureus and 193 clinical isolates of coagulase-negative staphylococci. The Columbia agar +4.5% NaCl performed excellently for both S. aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci. For Columbia agar +4.5% NaCl using a 5 microg oxacillin disk we suggest an interpretive zone diameter of R < or =15 mm and S > or =16 mm for S. aureus and R < or =24 mm and S >or =26 mm for coagulase-negative staphylococci. The Mueller Hinton agar +2% NaCl performed well for coagulase-negative staphylococci but for S. aureus at least three (3%) very major errors were found, making this method less attractive.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Staphylococcus aureus is known to be a leading cause of bacteremia in childhood, and is associated with severe morbidity and increased mortality. To determine developments in incidence and mortality rates, as well as risk factors associated with outcome, we analyzed data from 1971 through 2000. METHODS: Nationwide registration of S. aureus bacteremia (SAB) among children and adolescents from birth to 20 years of age was performed. Data on age, sex, source of bacteremia, comorbidity and outcome were extracted from discharge records. Rates were population adjusted and risk factors for death were assessed by multivariate logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: During the 30-year study period, 2648 cases of SAB were reported. Incidence increased from 4.6 to 8.4 cases per 100,000 population and case-mortality rates decreased from 19.6% to 2.5% (P = 0.0001). Incidence in the infant age group (<1 year) were 10- to 17-fold greater compared with that in the other age strata and mortality rate was twice as high. Hospital-acquired infections dominated the infant group, accounting for 73.9%-91.0% versus 39.2%-50.5% in the other age groups. By multivariate analysis, pulmonary infection and endocarditis for all age groups, comorbidity for the older than 1 year, and hospital-acquired infections for the oldest group were independently associated with an increased risk of death. CONCLUSIONS: Mortality rates associated with SAB decreased significantly in the past 3 decades, possibly because of new and improved treatment modalities. However, incidence rates have increased significantly in the same period, underscoring that S. aureus remains an important invasive pathogen.  相似文献

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) can be used to generate information about a patient’s tumour and personal genome. This powerful diagnostic tool provides solicited and unsolicited hereditary genetic (risk) information that could have consequences for cancer patients and their quality of life. A well-defined approach for returning appropriate genetic risk information is needed in personalized cancer care. A qualitative design with semi-structured interviews was used. We conducted interviews with 24 Dutch patients with different types of cancer, both NGS-experienced and NGS-inexperienced, to learn their intentions, needs and preferences towards receiving unsolicited genetic information obtained using NGS. Almost all participants had a positive attitude towards receiving unsolicited findings. After receiving comprehensive background information on NGS, including a binning model of four categories of unsolicited findings, most participants preferred to receive only subsets of genetic information. Their main concern was their own and others’ (including family members) ability to cope with (the increased risk of having) a genetic disorder. Providing background information gave cancer patients the opportunity to select subsets of findings and increased their ability to make an informed choice. Special attention is needed for social and emotional factors to support the patients themselves and when communicating test results with their family members.  相似文献

Multidrug resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus are a major cause of skin and soft tissue infections requiring the development of novel and alternative therapeutic options. Photodynamic oxidation is the cornerstone of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) involving the combined use of light and a photosensitizer, which, in the presence of oxygen, originates cytotoxic species capable of oxidizing biological molecules and leads to inactivation of target cells. We have previously shown that susceptibility to aPDT differs significantly across S. aureus isolates and could be associated with several genetic elements. However, the effect of the photodynamic process regarding the S. aureus genetic background has never been reported. We have compared the genetic backgrounds of the strains (SCCmec types, spa types and main clonal complexes) with respect to their susceptibility to protoporphyrin IX-mediated photodynamic inactivation. SCCmec typing revealed no differences in response to photoinactivation. However, detection of spa types and clonal complexes clustered the studied population of MRSA strains according to their response to photodynamic oxidation. Clonal complex 1 (CC1) accounted for elevated resistance and CC30 (ST36) for susceptibility to photoinactivation. Moreover, spa typing identified isolates resistant (t032) and susceptible to photodynamic oxidation (t051, t015). The very tight association between clonal lineages and response to photodynamic inactivation indicates the important role of genetic background for aPDT efficacy. These results make a case for the development of a diagnostic tool with the predictive value of aPDT efficacy according to an identified genetic background of S. aureus isolates.  相似文献

spa typing of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has traditionally been done by PCR amplification and Sanger sequencing of the spa repeat region. At Hvidovre Hospital, Denmark, whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of all MRSA isolates has been performed routinely since January 2013, and an in-house analysis pipeline determines the spa types. Due to national surveillance, all MRSA isolates are sent to Statens Serum Institut, where the spa type is determined by PCR and Sanger sequencing. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reliability of the spa types obtained by 150-bp paired-end Illumina WGS. MRSA isolates from new MRSA patients in 2013 (n = 699) in the capital region of Denmark were included. We found a 97% agreement between spa types obtained by the two methods. All isolates achieved a spa type by both methods. Nineteen isolates differed in spa types by the two methods, in most cases due to the lack of 24-bp repeats in the whole-genome-sequenced isolates. These related but incorrect spa types should have no consequence in outbreak investigations, since all epidemiologically linked isolates, regardless of spa type, will be included in the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis. This will reveal the close relatedness of the spa types. In conclusion, our data show that WGS is a reliable method to determine the spa type of MRSA.  相似文献
