Invasive pneumococcal disease remains an important health priority owing to increasing incidence caused by pneumococci expressing non-vaccine serotypes. We previously defined 621 Global Pneumococcal Sequence Clusters (GPSCs) analysing 20 027 isolates collected worldwide and from published genomic data. In this study, we aimed investigate the lineages behind predominant serotypes, mechanism of serotype replacement in disease, as well major contributing invasive post-vaccine era their...
Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) introduction has reduced pneumococcal meningitis incidence. The Serotype Replacement and Distribution Estimation (PSERENADE) project described the serotype distribution of remaining in countries using PCV10/13 for least 5–7 years with primary series uptake above 70%. was estimated a multinomial Dirichlet regression model, stratified by PCV product age. In PCV10-using sites (N = 8; cases 1141), PCV10 types caused 5% <5 age 15% among ≥5 years; top...
Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) that are ten-valent (PCV10) and 13-valent (PCV13) became available in 2010. We evaluated their global impact on invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) incidence all ages. Serotype-specific IPD cases population denominators were obtained directly from surveillance sites using PCV10 or PCV13 national immunisation programmes with a primary series uptake of at least 50%. Annual rate ratios (IRRs) estimated comparing the before any PCV each year post-PCV10...
Extended-spectrum β-lactamases producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) lend resistance to most β-lactam antibiotics. Because of limited treatment options, ESBL-EC infections are generally more difficult treat, leading higher hospital costs, reduced rates microbiological and clinical responses, a threat the patient’s life. This study aimed determine antibiotic pattern isolated from patients with urinary tract infection in Morocco. retrospective laboratory-based was conducted at Cheikh Khalifa...
Widespread use of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) has reduced vaccine-type invasive disease (IPD). We describe the serotype distribution IPD after extensive ten-valent PCV (PCV10; Synflorix, GSK) and 13-valent (PCV13; Prevenar 13, Pfizer) globally. data were obtained from surveillance sites participating in WHO-commissioned Pneumococcal Serotype Replacement Distribution Estimation (PSERENADE) project that exclusively used PCV10 or PCV13 (hereafter sites, respectively) their national...
The purpose of this study was to compare the incidence rate invasive pneumococcal disease, rates antibiotic resistance and serotype distribution among children ≤5 years old before after PCVs introduction in Casablanca, Morocco.This conducted at Ibn Rochd University Hospital Centre Casablanca during two periods encompassing pre-and post-implementation PCVs, respectively from January 2007 October 2010 2011 December 2014. All non-duplicate S. pneumoniae isolates recovered were included.There...
Multidrug-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae emerge through the modification of core genome loci by interspecies homologous recombinations, and acquisition gene cassettes. Both occurred in otherwise contrasting histories antibiotic-resistant S. lineages PMEN3 PMEN9. A single clade spread globally, evading vaccine-induced immunity frequent serotype switching, whereas locally circulating PMEN9 clades independently gained resistance. repeatedly integrated Tn 916 -type 1207.1 elements,...
We describe cases with monkeypox virus (MPXV) Clade Ib in Burundi from their first detection July until 20 August 2024. Testing 442 people vesicular lesions confirmed 170 (98 male; 72 female), 82 (48%) being < 15 years old. Differential diagnosis of the 30 individuals testing MPXV negative revealed chickenpox 20. Cases occurred 26 49 health districts, but mostly Bujumbura Nord (88/170; 67%). Case-derived genetic sequences and South-Kivu (Democratic Republic Congo), clustered together...
Pneumococcal disease outbreaks of vaccine preventable serotype 4 sequence type (ST)801 in shipyards have been reported several countries. We aimed to use genomics establish any international links between them.Sequence data from ST801-related outbreak isolates Norway (n = 17), Finland 11) and Northern Ireland 2) were combined with invasive pneumococcal surveillance the respective countries, genomes an collection 41 > 40,000), totalling 106 genomes. Raw mapped recombination excluded before...
Pertussis, a vaccine preventable disease, is still responsible of significant morbidity and mortality around the world, mostly in newborns. The aim present study was (1) to introduce pertussis surveillance major pediatric hospital Casablanca (2) analyze prevalence among children under 14 years age their entourage Casablanca, Morocco. This prospective non-case controlled study, including suspected Pertussis admitted at Abderrahim Harouchi Pediatric Hospital from January 2013 June 2015....
Here, we report the draft genome sequences of six severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) strains. SARS-CoV-2 is responsible for COVID-19 pandemic, which started at end 2019 in Wuhan, China. The isolates were obtained from nasopharyngeal swabs Moroccan patients with COVID-19. Mutation analysis revealed presence spike D614G mutation all genomes, widely present several genomes around world.
Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, especially among children the elderly. The ability to effectively treat pneumococcal infection has been compromised due acquisition antibiotic resistance, particularly β-lactam drugs.
