is a conditioned pathogen in the medical setting and mainly affects patients with cystic fibrosis. We found co-infection with complex (Bcc) in many patients with respiratory tract infections, including H7N9 and COVID-19. However, previous studies have not focused on co-infections with BCC and respiratory viruses. Therefore, this study attempted to clarify the evolution of COVID-19-Bcc and H7N9-Bcc in terms of genetic background, antibiotic resistance, and virulence phenotypes.
This study retrospectively collected 49 Bcc isolated from patients with H7N9 and COVID-19 in a tertiary hospital of Zhejiang Province, of which 42 isolates were isolated from patients with H7N9, seven isolates were isolated from patients with COVID-19. The collected isolates were tested for antibiotic susceptibility, infection model, and whole-genome COVID-19-Bcc Characterization.
The test results of 49 strains of Bcc showed that the strains isolated from COVID-19 patients accounted for 57.1% of multidrug-resistance resistant strains. Statistical analysis of the median lethal time of showed that the median fatal time for COVID-19-Bcc was shorter and more virulent than that of H7N9-Bcc (P<0.05). The results of phylogenetic analysis indicated that COVID-19-Bcc may have evolved from H7N9-Bcc.
In this study, co-infection with BCC in many patients with respiratory tract infections, including H7N9 and COVID-19, was first identified and clarified that COVID-19-Bcc may have evolved from H7N9-Bcc and has the characteristics of hypervirulence and multidrug resistance.
是医疗环境中的一种条件性病原体,主要影响囊性纤维化患者。我们在包括H7N9和COVID-19在内的许多呼吸道感染患者中发现了与复杂菌(Bcc)的合并感染。然而,先前的研究并未关注BCC与呼吸道病毒的合并感染。因此,本研究试图从遗传背景、抗生素耐药性和毒力表型方面阐明COVID-19 - Bcc和H7N9 - Bcc的演变情况。
本研究回顾性收集了浙江省一家三级医院从H7N9和COVID-19患者中分离出的49株Bcc,其中42株分离自H7N9患者,7株分离自COVID-19患者。对收集到的分离株进行抗生素敏感性测试、感染模型和全基因组COVID-19 - Bcc特征分析。
49株Bcc的检测结果显示,从COVID-19患者中分离出的菌株占多重耐药菌株的57.1%。对[具体内容未明确]的中位致死时间进行统计分析表明,COVID-19 - Bcc的中位致死时间比H7N9 - Bcc短且毒力更强(P<0.05)。系统发育分析结果表明,COVID-19 - Bcc可能由H7N9 - Bcc进化而来。
在本研究中,首次鉴定出包括H7N9和COVID-19在内的许多呼吸道感染患者中存在与BCC的合并感染,并阐明COVID-19 - Bcc可能由H7N9 - Bcc进化而来,具有高毒力和多重耐药的特征。
