Antibiotic resistance remains a major threat to public health worldwide, especially in China, where multidrug-resistant bacteria are prevalent.National action plan on antimicrobial resistance 2016 to 2020 is a great and comprehensive plan for the control of antimicrobial resistance in China, and it is a perfect practice ofOne Healthconcept.To help readers to have a thorough understanding of this action plan, this paper gives a detailed introduction of the action plan, and points out the possible challenges in the implementation of the plan.

Antimicrobial resistance surveillance is the basis of drug resistance control. It is of great value to understand the development trend of drug resistance, newly emerging resistant bacteria, drug resistance control policy formulation, antimicrobial stewardship, new antibiotics research and development, and related basic researches. High quality surveillance lays a solid foundation to ensure the scientific value of the results; it is necessary to carry out active surveillance to obtain results under the same quality standard with uniform methods, which can make up for the lack of passive survey and guarantee the accurate application of data.

Objective To study the relationship between the gene mutations of DNA gyrase subunit A(gyrA)and quinolone resistance in Salmonella typhi. Methods The genes of gyrA DNA of Salmonella typhi S275(a clinically isolated quinolone susceptible strain)and its spontaneous quinolone-re-sistant mutant RGl were examined in this study with polymerase chain reaction(PCR),restrictive frag-ments length polymorphism(RFLP),single strand conformational polymorphism(SSCP)and nucleotide sequencing. Results Nudeotide sequencing of gyrA in Salmonella typhi S275 revealed that the bases of 128～426 kept highly conservative as compared with those of Escherichia coli KL-16,with only 7.49%difference in the gyrA nucleotides 128～426 between the two strains.Most of the mutations were silent mutations,which contributed to 3 amino acid substitutions in gyrase(including Thr-45→His,Arg-49→Leu and Val-56→Gly),and all these substitutions were located outside the quinolone resistance determining re-gion(amino acids 67-106 of subunit A of gyrase).In comparison with Salmonella typhi S275,a single mutation was found at base 247 of gyrA of Salmonella typhi RG1,with change transferred from T to G and led to a substitution of Ser-83→Ala.The mutation might be responsible for the increase of MICs of nalidixic acid,ofloxacin and ciprofloxacin against Salmonella typhi from 2,0.06 and<0.03 to 512,2,and 1 mg/L respectively.Ser-83→A1a was also a newly discovered substitution in gyrA of Salmonella spp.The results of PCR-RFLP and SSCP were in concordance with results of nucleotide sequencing. Conclu.sions The mutation of gyrase at the 83rd amino acid maybe play a principal role in the resistance of Salmonella typhi to quinolone.

Objective To evaluate the reliability of using imipenem,meropenem,cefoperazonesulbactam,piperacillin-tazobactam in the treatment of hospital-acquired Gram-negative bacterial infections with Monte Carlo simulation(MCS).Methods The MIC of the four agents collected from hospital-acquired infections were detected in accordance with broth dilution method of Clinical and Laboratory Standard Institute (CLSI).MCS were conducted with MICs and the pharmacokinetics parameters of the four agents based on conventional dose regimens.The cumulative fraction of response (CFR) of time over MIC target attainment in different dosing regimen were generated.Results A total of 2 541 strains,including 2 093 strains of Enterobacteriaceae and 448 strains of glucose non-fermentative bacilli were collected.The MIC90 of imipenem and meropenem against Enterobacteriaceae were less than 1 mg/L in general,whereas MICg0 of two agents with β-1actamase inhibitors was around 64 mg/L.As to glucose non-fermenting bacteria,MICs of all the four agents were very high,especially to Acinetobacter baumannii,which indicated MIC50 more than 32 mg/L.MCS revealed that carbapenems had significantly higher CFR than those with β-1actamase inhibitors.Imipenem and meropenem (1 g,q8 h) obtained CFRs of 74.69％ and 81.42％,respectively.The CFR of cefoperazone-sulbactam (2 g,q8 h) and piperacillin-tazobactam (4 g,q6 h) (both excluding β-1actamase inhibitors) were just 49.59％ and 27.66％ respectively,which increased after excluding A.baumannii in piperacillin-tazobactam.Conclusions The conventional dose regimens of imipenem and meropenem are reliable for the empiric therapy of Gram-negative hospital-acquired bacterial infections.Piperacillin-tazobactam is suggested to use with higher doses or prolonged infusion time to satisfy the time of drug concentration exceeded the MIC (T ＞ MIC) requirement.More clinical studies of cefoperazone-sulbactam should be conducted to optimize its regimen and guarantee its efficacy.

OBJECTIVE To determine the bacterial distribution and resistance of biliary tract infections in China.METHODS Disc diffusion test,MIC test or E-test were used to detect the antimicrobial sensitivity of bacterial isolates from bile specimens.WHONET software was applied for analysis of the bacterial sensitive data from 84 tertiary Mohnarin member hospitals at different area in China from June 1,2006 to May 31,2007.RESULTS A total of 1441 bacterial strains were collected in the survey period,which included 952 Gram-negative strains(66.1%),of which the top three were Escherichia coli(31.0%),Klebsiella pneumoniae(8.4%) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa(7.8%) and 489 Gram-positive strains(33.9%),the top three were Enterococcus faecalis(11.6%),E.faecium(9.5%) and Staphylococcus(7.4 %).Susceptibility results showed that the resistant rates of E.coli and K.pneumoniae to three generation cephalosporins and quinolones were 25.9-70.0%,17.9-44.8% and 66.9-70.9%,34.6-40.0%,respectively,which were comparable with the results of overall bacteria collection.The resistant rates of P.aeruginosa to imipenem and cefoperazone/sulbactam were 37.5%,13.8%,and the detection rate of meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) from bile samples was higher than the results of overall bacteria collection.Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus(VRE) were rare.CONCLUSIONS Gram-negative bacilli are still the predominant pathogens in biliary tract infections;the overall bacterial resistance is severe.MRSA is increasing.Prudent application of antibiotics in biliary tract infections needs to be emphasized.

Objective To investigate the antimicrobial resistance of Gram-positive cocci isolated from 17 hospitals located at different areas in China. Methods All the Gram-positive cocci isolated from 17 hospitals from October 1 st, 2004 to September 30th, 2005 were collected for susceptibility test using standard agar dilution method issued by The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI,2004). The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC)50 and MIC90 were detected for antibacterial activity in vitro of 35 antimicrobial agents. The rates of resistance, intermediate and susceptiblity of bacteria to the agents were calculated. Results Totally, 925 Gram-positive cocci strains were collected during the period, which included Staphylococcus 536, Enterococcus 249, Streptococcus 137 and other Gram-positive cocci 3; the rates of oxacillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (ORSA) and oxacillin resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis (ORSE) were 62.9% and 82.9%, respectively. The penicillinnonsusceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae (PNSP) was 40.7 % including 10.5 % resistant and 30.2intermediate. All strains of Enterococcus were susceptible to teicoplanin. No Enterococcus was resistant to vancomycin. Five strains of Enterococcus were found intermediate to vancomycin, which were 1 E.faecalis, 2 E. faecium, 1 E. gallinarum and 1 E. avium. No glycopeptides resistant Gram-positive coccus was detected. Conclusions The antimicrobial resistance of Gram-positive cocci is increasing with higher isolate rate of penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneurnoniae (PRSP) and methicillinresistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). All the investigated Gram-positive cocci are highly resistant to macrolides. No glycopeptide resistant strains are detected during the surveillance.

Objective To establish a national antibacterial resistance surveillance network and explore the epidemiology of bacterial resistance in China. Methods The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined by National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS) standard agar double dilution method. The susceptibility and resistance rates of drugs were calculated according to the criteria in guidelines of NCCLS (2004). Results According to the previous protocol, a total of 4 075 pathogenic strains isolated from 17 hospitals located at 15 different cities from October 1, 2004 to September 30, 2005 in China were collected and the MICs were detected. Gram-negative bacilli were 3 150 strains ( 77.3%). Enterobacteriaceae Were highly susceptible to Carbapenems. In addition, Moxalactam, Piperacillin/Tazobactam, Cefoperazone/Sulbactam and Cefepime were also exhibited good antibacterial activities against Enterobacteriaceae,the resistance rates of them were less than 10 %. The resistance rates of nonfermentative Gramnegative bacilli, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumanii, to Imipenem were 10. 6 % and 10.4 % , respectively. Cefoperazone/Sulbactam, Piperacillin/Tazobactam and Fluoroquinolones also showed good activity against nonfermentative Gram-negative bacilli.Conclusions The drug resistance rates of Escherichia coli and Acinetobacter baumanii increase obviously. Fluoroquinolones and Aminoglycosides are not very effective against Enterobacteriaceae,which should be paid more attention.
