Aim: The authors aimed to examine antibiotic resistance genes and representative virulence determinants among 100 Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates with an emphasis on capsular serotypes and clonality of some of the isolates. Methods: PCR amplification of ( rmpA, rmpA2, iutA, iroN and IncHI1B plasmid) and (NDM, OXA-48, KPC, CTX-M-15, VIM, IMP, SPM) was conducted. Wzi sequencing and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) were performed. Results: K2 was the only detected serotype in the authors' collection. RMPA2 was the most common capsule-associated virulence gene detected. All studied isolates harbored OXA-48-like (100%) and NDM (43%) (n = 43). ST147 was the most common sequence type. Conclusion: This work provides insight into the evolution of the coexistence of virulence and resistance genes in a tertiary healthcare setting in Cairo, Egypt.

The Impact

Abstract Background Environmental tiggers are thought to contribute to Inflammatory Bowel Disease flares. The COVID-19 pandemic and resulting lockdown led to an emphasis on outpatient care, fewer presentations to hospital for non-COVID-19-related illnesses, changes in work practices and a reduction in air pollution. Our aim was to determine the impact of these changes on hospital admissions with acute IBD flares. Methods The hospital in-patient enquiry (HIPE) department provided records of all patients admitted with acute IBD flares during the first Irish lockdown from March to May 2020 and for the corresponding period in 2017, 2018 and 2019. Electronic patient records were used to assess patient demographics, biochemical markers, imaging, medication use and outcome. Results 101 patients were admitted with an acute IBD flare. This was a marked reduction when compared to the corresponding period in the previous three years (p<0.0001). Despite the rates of admission decreasing in this period, rates of colectomy were significantly increased (p<0.0001). (Table 1). Conclusion We demonstrated a significant decrease in hospital admissions for acute IBD flares during the first wave of the pandemic. We postulate that changes in environmental triggers of IBD such as working from home and reduced stress levels in addition to reduced air pollution may account for this reduction. The increased rate of colectomy likely reflects a more severe presentation of IBD and patients’ reluctance to attend the hospital at an early stage in their disease flare as well as non-adherence to prescribed IBD therapies due to a perceived COVID-19-related risk.
