TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed five point prevalence studies (1986 to 2002) in a large group of Spanish hospitals (from 68 institutions in 1986 to 143 in 2002) collecting all Staphylococcus strains isolated on a single selected day.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emergence of CTX-M-15-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae of multilocus sequence types 1, 11, 14, 17, 20, 35 and 36 as pathogens and colonizers in newborns and adults
Jesús Oteo,Oscar Cuevas,Inmaculada López-Rodríguez,Ana Banderas-Florido,Ana Vindel,María Pérez-Vázquez,Verónica Bautista,Margarita Arroyo,Juan García-Caballero,Pilar Marín-Casanova,Rubén González-Sanz,Víctor Fuentes-Gómez,Salvador Oña-Compán,Silvia García-Cobos,José Campos +14 more
TL;DR: This study shows that multiresistant K. pneumoniae producing CTX-M-15 of MLST types 1, 11, 14, 17, 20, 35 and 36 are spreading as pathogens and colonizers among newborns and adult patients in Spain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parallel increase in community use of fosfomycin and resistance to fosfomycin in extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli
Jesús Oteo,Verónica Bautista,Noelia Lara,Oscar Cuevas,Margarita Arroyo,Sara Fernández,Edurne Lázaro,Francisco J. de Abajo,José Campos +8 more
TL;DR: Key factors related to increased fosfomycin resistance in ESBL-EC causing UTIs could be the rapid growth in community use of fosFomycin, the widespread distribution of the 025b/B2 E. coli clone and the existence of a susceptible population comprising women residing in nursing home facilities.
Journal ArticleDOI
CTX-M-15-producing urinary Escherichia coli O25b-ST131-phylogroup B2 has acquired resistance to fosfomycin
Jesús Oteo,Beatriz Orden,Verónica Bautista,Oscar Cuevas,Margarita Arroyo,Rocío Martínez-Ruiz,María Pérez-Vázquez,Marta Alcaraz,Silvia García-Cobos,José Campos +9 more
TL;DR: Fosfomycin resistance in urinary E. coli has increased due to the acquisition of this resistance by a previously circulating CTX-M-15-producing E. Escherichia coli O25b-ST131-phylogroup B2 strain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Spain: Molecular Epidemiology and Utility of Different Typing Methods
Ana Vindel,Oscar Cuevas,Emilia Cercenado,Carmen Marcos,Verónica Bautista,Carol Castellares,Pilar Trincado,Teresa Boquete,María Pérez-Vázquez,Mercedes Marín,Emilio Bouza +10 more
TL;DR: In the experience, PFGE, spa typing, SCCmec typing, and MLST presented good correlations for the majority of the MRSA strains; the use of spa typing and PFGE typing for epidemiological surveillance, since this combination is useful for both long-term and short-term studies.
