Persistent Asymptomatic Human Infections by <named-content content-type="genus-species">Salmonella enterica</named-content> Serovar Newport in China
ABSTRACT Salmonella enterica serovar Newport (S. Newport) infections are gradually on the rise in China from the last decade. For humans’ infections, S. Newport has been ranked among the top five serovars responsible for persistent infections, globally. A total of 290 S. Newport strains with their r...

Newport) infections are gradually on the rise in China from the last decade. For humans’ infections, S. Newport has been ranked among the top five serovars responsible for persistent infections, globally. A total of 290 S. Newport strains with their relevant clinical metadata were analyzed, and the strains were subjected to whole-genome sequence analysis. Among these, 62.4% (n = 181) were from diarrheic patients and 28.9% (n = 84) were from asymptomatic individuals (including adults and youngsters) while 8.6% (n = 25) were from cases of persistent diarrhea in infants (28%, n = 7) and toddlers (72%, n = 18). The association between the sequence types (STs) and the variations in the clinical presentation was statistically significant (P = 0.0432), with ST46 causing diarrhea or representing asymptomatic patients and ST31 or ST68 causing persistent diarrhea. Genomic analysis revealed that the highest proportion of the isolates (98.5%, n = 279), primarily from patients with or without diarrhea rather than from asymptomatic individuals, carried antimicrobial resistance determinants corresponding to the aminoglycosides and beta-lactams, highlighting the need for cautionary usage of antimicrobials in such patients. These findings also suggest that cases of nontyphoidal Salmonella infection with symptoms of acute diarrhea or persistent diarrhea caused by S. Newport should be handled with caution, due to the high chance of development of an antimicrobial resistance phenotype that might lead to therapeutic failures. Together, S. Newport ST31 and ST46, which have the highest frequency of carriage of multidrug resistance, are potentially responsible for antimicrobial-resistant diarrhea/persistent diarrhea in infants and children, while adult humans are more likely to be (asymptomatic) carriers of the S. Newport strains. IMPORTANCE Human infections caused by Salmonella Newport generally lead to gastrointestinal diseases. These infections are normally self-limiting; however, in certain cases, broad-spectrum antimicrobials are prescribed for the treatment. The Chinese National Foodborne Disease Surveillance Network has reported a gradual increase in the incidence of multidrug-resistant S. Newport infections in humans. After careful evaluation of the dynamic relationship among the clinical findings, the age group, and the genomic sequence data, it was found that young patients represented the major group with persistent diarrhea, whereas adults were either asymptomatic or diarrheic. Furthermore, all these strains contained multiple acquired antimicrobial resistance determinants, which limited the use of antimicrobials for human patients of all age groups. This analysis of the laboratory-confirmed cases, coupled with genetic analysis of the corresponding pathogen, revealed that antimicrobial treatment of persistent infections by S. Newport in infants and toddlers, and in asymptomatic or diarrheic adults, may not be successful. If the antimicrobials must be prescribed at all, they must be used with caution because of the presence of multiple acquired antimicrobial resistance determinants in such strains.Narayan PaudyalHang PanBeibei WuXiao ZhouXin ZhouWenqing ChaiQingqing WuShuning LiFang LiGuimin GuHaoqiu WangQinghua HuXuebin XuYan LiMin YueAmerican Society for MicrobiologyarticleageSalmonella Newportantimicrobial resistancehuman symptomsMicrobiologyQR1-502ENmSphere, Vol 5, Iss 3 (2020) |
