BACKGROUND: The emergence of carbapenem-resistant Citrobacter freundii (CRCF) poses a significant threat to public health, particularly among high-risk populations.
OBJECTIVE: To characterize the genomic epidemiology of CRCF and analyse the clinical features and risk factor associated with CRCF acquisition.
METHODS: A total of 21 CRCF strains were collected from Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from 2012 to 2021. Following whole genome sequencing and assembly, the distribution of drug resistance genes, mobile genetic element, plasmid replicons as well as sequence type (ST) was analysed. Clinical data were collected from patients isolated with CRCF and CSCF to explore potential risk factors for CRCF acquisition.
RESULTS: Among the 21 CRCF strains, blaNDM-1 (n = 18, 85.7 %) was the most common ARGs, followed by sul1 (n = 17, 80.9 %). Diverse STs were found and the most common ST type was ST17 (n = 4, 19.0 %) and ST396 (n = 3, 14.3 %). Among the 21plasmid replicons, IncX3 (n = 11, 52.4 %) was the most prevalent. Sixteen Insertion sequences (ISs) and 3 transposons (Tns) were identified, and IS6100 (n = 17, 81.0 %) were the most frequent. Co-occurrence of mph(A) and IS6100 were observed in fifteen C. freundii. Of the 21 patients with CRCF infection/colonization, the median age was 62.7 years (19-88 years), of which 17 (80.9 %) were male, 11 (52.4 %) were elderly patients (>65 years), 17 (80.9 %) were hospitalized for more than 10 days. In addition, hypertension (n = 12, 57.1 %) was the main underlying diseases. Risk factor analysis showed that invasive procedures (P = 0.032) was an independent risk factor for CRCF acquisition.
CONCLUSION: Our study showed that blaNDM-1 was the main gene conferring resistance to carbapenem. Multiple STs identified in the 21 strains showed a genetic diversity of CRCF. Existence of kinds of ISs and Tns among these strains indicated the key role played by these mobile genetic elements. CRCF infection/colonization mainly happened in male elderly patients with the hypertension being the main underlying diseases. Avoiding invasive procedures may be helpful in decreasing the CRCF acquisition.
