RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to perform two cross-sectional surveys on the fecal carriage of CTX-M-producing Enterobacterales in school-aged children from rural areas of the Bolivian Chaco (2016 vs 2019). METHODS: A total of 757 fecal samples were collected from school-aged children living in nine indigenous communities (n=337, 2016; n=420, 2019). After a first passage onto MacConkey agar (MCA), samples were plated onto MCA plus cefotaxime 2 µg/mL (MCA-CTX), and a loopful of the bacterial growth was used as a template for the detection of group 1, 2, 8/25, and 9 blaCTX-M variants by multiplex reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction . Positive samples were tested again for detecting, identifying, and characterizing CTX-M-positive isolates. RESULTS: Growth onto MCA-CTX was obtained with 208 samples (27.5%; 62/337, 2016; 146/420, 2019), of which 201 (96.6%) were positive for blaCTX-M genes. Overall, a relevant increase of fecal carriage of CTX-M-producing Enterobacterales was observed in the study period: 17,5% (59/337) in 2016 compared with 33,8% (142/420) in 2019, p<0.01. Nonetheless, the relative group distribution of CTX-M groups remained stable, with group 1 being the prevalent, followed by group 9 and group 8/25. Group 2 was not detected. CONCLUSIONS: The present study demonstrated an alarming spread of CTX-M enzymes in rural areas of the Bolivian Chaco, where antibiotics consumption is limited. Further studies are encouraged to better understand the dissemination dynamics of such relevant resistance determinants.
