RESUMEN

We report within-host evolution of antibiotic resistance to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and azithromycin in a nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae strain from a patient with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID), who received repeated or prolonged treatment with these antibiotics for recurrent respiratory tract infections. Whole-genome sequencing of three longitudinally collected sputum isolates during the period April 2016 to January 2018 revealed persistence of a strain of sequence type 2386. Reduced susceptibility to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole in the first two isolates was associated with mutations in genes encoding dihydrofolate reductase (folA) and its promotor region, dihydropteroate synthase (folP), and thymidylate synthase (thyA), while subsequent substitution of a single amino acid in dihydropteroate synthase (G225A) rendered high-level resistance in the third isolate from 2018. Azithromycin co-resistance in this isolate was associated with amino acid substitutions in 50S ribosomal proteins L4 (W59R) and L22 (G91D), possibly aided by a substitution in AcrB (A604E) of the AcrAB efflux pump. All three isolates were resistant to aminopenicillins and cefotaxime due to TEM-1B beta-lactamase and identical alterations in penicillin-binding protein 3. Further resistance development to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and azithromycin resulted in a multidrug-resistant phenotype. Evolution of multidrug resistance due to horizontal gene transfer and/or spontaneous mutations, along with selection of resistant subpopulations is a particular risk in CVID and other patients requiring repeated and prolonged antibiotic treatment or prophylaxis. Such challenging situations call for careful antibiotic stewardship together with supportive and supplementary treatment. We describe the clinical and microbiological course of events in this case report and address the challenges encountered.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To describe epidemiology and antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) data of bacteria causing invasive infections in Norwegian children (0-18 years). METHODS: Population-based observational study using prospectively collected AST data from the Norwegian Surveillance System of Antimicrobial Resistance from 2013 to 2017. We included all clinically relevant bacterial isolates (blood and cerebrospinal fluid), and compared incidence of invasive infections and AST data in isolates from children and adults. RESULTS: We included 1173 isolates from children and 44,561 isolates from adults. Staphylococcus aureus accounted for 220/477 (46.2%, 95% CI: 41.6-50.7) of all isolates in schoolchildren (6-18 years). Compared with Streptococcus pneumonia isolates from adults (N = 2674), we observed higher nonsusceptibility rates to penicillin in isolates from children (N = 151), 11.9% versus 5.8%, P < 0.01; also higher resistance rates to erythromycin (11.3% vs. 4.9%, P < 0.01), clindamycin (9.3% vs. 3.6%, P < 0.001), and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (17.9% vs. 6.4%, P < 0.001). Compared with Escherichia coli isolates in adults (N = 9073), we found lower rates of ESBL in isolates from children (N = 212), 2.4% versus 6.4%, P < 0.05. CONCLUSION: The study indicates the importance of microbiologic surveillance strategies in children and highlights the need for pediatric AST data. The high rates of nonsusceptibility to commonly used antibiotics among S. pneumoniae in children and the high burden of invasive S. aureus infections in schoolchildren calls for modifications of Norwegian guidelines.
