Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the etiological characteristics, serotype distribution, drug resistance and molecular typing characteristics based on data collected by active surveillance of foodborne diseases in Shanxi Province from 2021 to 2022.Methods:Fecal and anal swabs for foodborne disease tests were collected from 17 sentinel hospitals in Shanxi Province from 2021 to 2022. The pathogens included Shigella, Salmonella, Vibrio parahaemolyticus and 5 types of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli ( E. coli). The positive strains were identified by mass spectrometry or systematic biochemistry. Salmonella and Shigella were serotyped by slide agglutination, and diarrheagenic E. coli was typed by multiplex fluorescence PCR. Vibrio parahaemolyticus was tested for tlh/ tdh/ trh virulence genes by multiplex fluorescent PCR. All strains were also tested for drug resistance by the microbroth dilution method. Molecular typing was performed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Results:A total of 4 481 samples were collected from patients with diarrhea, and 555 target strains were detected, with a detection rate of 12.39%(555/4 481). Among them, there were 365 strains of Salmonella, 175 strains of diarrheagenic E. coli, 15 strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus, and no Shigella. There were 32 serotypes of Salmonella, and the dominant serotypes were 158 strains of Salmonella senteritidis and 124 strains of Salmonella typhimurium. diarrheagenic E. coli classification: 79 strains of enteroaggregative E. coli, 72 strains of enteropathogenic E. coli, 23 strains of enterotoxic E. coli, 1 strain of enterohemorrhagic E. coli, and none of enteroinvasive E. coli. For Vibrio parahaemolyticus virulence gene carriage, all strains carried tlh; 11 strains (73.33%, 11/15) carried tdh only; 2 strains (13.33%, 2/15) carried trh; 1 strain (6.67%, 1/15) carried both tdh and trh genes; 1 strain (6.67%, 1/15) did not carry these two virulence genes. Antimicrobial resistance tests presented that Salmonella had the highest resistance rate to ampicillin (85.21%, 311/365), followed by naphridic acid (66.58%, 243/365), and multi-drug resistance (78.63%, 287/365), resulting in 135 drug resistance spectrums. The resistance rate of diarrheagenic E. coli to ampicillin was the highest (81.71%, 143/175), followed by tetracycline (67.43%, 118/175), and multi-drug resistance (72.57%, 127/175), resulting in 81 drug resistance spectrums. Vibrio parahaemolyticus had the highest resistance rate to cefazolin (93.33%, 14/15), followed by tetracycline (26.67%, 4/15) and multi-drug resistance (20.00%, 3/15), resulting in 3 drug resistance spectrums. A total of 158 strains of Salmonella enteritidi, 124 strains of Salmonella typhimurium, 13 strains of Salmonella london and 175 strains of DEC were typed by PFGE. Among 470 strains of PFGE typing, 6 strains of DEC were degraded by DNA, while the remaining strains obtained effective PFGE band. Salmonella enteritidi were divided into 64 PFGE band types, Salmonella typhimurium were divided into 115 PFGE band types, Salmonella london were divided into 13 PFGE band types and diarrheagenic E. coli were divided into 165 PFGE band types. Conclusions:Shigella is not detected in the active surveillance, and Salmonella is detected most frequently. Salmonella and diarrheagenic E. coli have the highest resistance rates to ampicillin, and Vibrio parahaemolyticus has the highest resistance rates to cefazolin. The PFGE classification is polymorphic, and the dominant band type is not obvious. The evidence of multi-drug resistance suggests further strengthening monitoring and management of drug resistance.
