RESUMO

Staphylococcus aureus nasal colonization is a major risk factor for infection. Studies have suggested an epidemiologic shift in the methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains that circulate in Brazil. We conducted cross-sectional studies of MRSA carriage among 1) children and adolescents in community daycare centers, 2) an outpatient clinic, and 3) hospitals in a large Brazilian metropolitan setting. There were 1.500 study subjects, 500 from each locale: 768 (51.2%) carried S. aureus whereas 150 (10%) of these were colonized with MRSA. The most common lineages were the Southwest Pacific (SWP) and the Pediatric clones in all three groups. Roughly 50% of SWP carried Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL) (p < 0.01) genes while 63.3% of the Pediatric clones were resistant or intermediately resistant to erythromycin (p < 0.01). This study describes a clonal change of the Brazilian epidemic clone (BEC) to the Pediatric and SWP lineages in Brazil. This finding has implications for clinical management of MRSA infections.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Staphylococcus aureus and beta-hemolytic streptococci (BHS) diseases disproportionately affect populations in middle/low-income countries. To assess if this disparity is reflected in colonization by these organisms, we compared their colonization frequency among children from different socioeconomic status (SES) communities in a city with high income inequality. METHODS: Between May-August 2014, we collected nasal and throat swabs to investigate S. aureus and BHS colonization among children who attended private and public pediatric clinics. Patients were classified as high SES, middle/low SES, and slum residents. We investigated the antimicrobial resistance profile, the SCCmec types and the presence of PVL genes among methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA). We also examined the antimicrobial resistance profile and serogroups of BHS. RESULTS: Of 598 children, 221 (37%) were colonized with S. aureus, of which 49 (22%) were MRSA. MRSA colonization was higher in middle/low SES (n = 18; 14%) compared with high SES (n = 17; 6%) and slum (n = 14; 8%) residents (p = 0.01). All MRSA strains were susceptible to clindamycin, nitrofurantoin, and rifampin. The highest non-susceptibility frequency (42.9%) was observed to erythromycin. SCCmec type V was only found in isolates from high SES children; types I and II were found only in middle/low SES children. Ten (20%) MRSA isolates carried PVL genes. Twenty-four (4%) children were BHS carriers. All BHS (n = 8) found in high SES children and six (67%) isolates from slum patients belonged to group A. All group B streptococci were from middle/low SES children, corresponding to five (71%) of the seven BHS isolated in this group. BHS isolates were susceptible to all drugs tested. CONCLUSIONS: Children from different SES communities had distinct bacterial colonization profiles, including MRSA carriage. Public health officials/researchers should consider SES when assessing disease transmission and control measures.
