Multicenter Study of Colistin Heteroresistance in Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Strains in China

Yuesong Weng et al.

Summary: This study investigated the extent of colistin heteroresistance among CRKP strains in China, revealing a prevalence of 6.2%. It was found that the ST11 clone accounted for 60.7% of the colistin-heteroresistant isolates. The study also showed that heteroresistance could be suppressed by an efflux pump inhibitor and identified the significant role of the PhoPQ pathway in the mechanisms of heteroresistance.

Prevalence of colistin heteroresistance in carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and association with clinical outcomes in patients: an observational study

Jessica Howard-Anderson et al.

Summary: This study investigated the prevalence of colistin heteroresistance in carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) and its association with clinical outcomes. The results showed that colistin heteroresistance was present in up to 26% of CRPA patients, but it did not have a significant impact on 90-day mortality.

Global burden of bacterial antimicrobial resistance in 2019: a systematic analysis

Christopher J. L. Murray et al.

Summary: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a significant threat to global human health, and this study provides the most comprehensive estimates of AMR burden to date. By estimating deaths and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) associated with bacterial AMR in 204 countries and territories in 2019, the study highlights the impact of resistance and the leading pathogen-drug combinations contributing to it.

Global colistin use: a review of the emergence of resistant Enterobacterales and the impact on their genetic basis

Ulrike Binsker et al.

Summary: The global rise of MDR and XDR Enterobacterales in human medicine has led to the reintroduction of colistin as a last-resort drug. However, the use of colistin in veterinary medicine has resulted in a steadily increasing prevalence of resistant isolates in livestock and meat-based food. The transmission of resistant isolates from animals to humans, acquiring resistance through food, and exposure to colistin in clinical settings have contributed to the increased prevalence of colistin-resistant Enterobacterales in humans. This study focuses on the understanding of chromosomal-mediated resistance mechanisms in Enterobacterales, providing an overview of the genes involved in colistin resistance and the global situation of colistin-resistant Enterobacterales.

Colistin Heteroresistance Is Largely Undetected among Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacterales in the United States

Victor Band et al.

Summary: The study revealed varying levels of colistin heteroresistance among highly drug-resistant carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE), with most heteroresistant isolates being misclassified as colistin susceptible by clinical diagnostic testing. The findings from the 2015 study suggest a high frequency of colistin heteroresistance in CRE.
