Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Age 18 years and older Bacteriological diagnosis ESBL-producing E. coli detected in clinical specimens (case group) Non-ESBL-producing (3GCS: 3rd generation cephalosporin-susceptible) E. coli detected in clinical specimens within 3 days of admission or in outpatient setting (control group)
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Cases deemed inappropriate for inclusion in the study by the principal investigator (e.g., significant missing medical record data)
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1) Clinical-epidemiologic evaluation of community-onset ESBL E. coli infections and identification of risk factors 1) -1: Risk assessment of community-onset ESBL E. coli infection (comparison with community-onset 3GCS E. coli infection) Descriptive and univariate analysis of the clinical-epidemiologic characteristics of community-acquired ESBL-producing E. coli infections compared to susceptible strains will be conducted and independent risk factors for infection will be identified. 1)-2: Risk assessment of community-acquired ESBL E. coli infections (vs. nosocomial ESBL E. coli infections) Descriptive and univariate analyses to identify the clinico-epidemiologic characteristics of community-acquired ESBL E. coli infection compared to nosocomial infection will be conducted and independent risk factors for infection will be identified. 2) Evaluation of the association between molecular microbiological and clinical-epidemiological characteristics of ESBL E. coli infection. Descriptive and univariate analyses will be performed on molecular microbiological parameters to identify differences between community and nosocomial cases, the presence of nosocomial infection, and clinical epidemiological characteristics, as well as the presence or absence of spread of specific clones and geographic bias. | — |
