Brief summary

The first aim of this study is to explore the drug resistance mechanism of Enterobacteriaceae bacteria and to evaluate the treatment effect of ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) in combination with aztreonam (ATM) against Metallo-β-lactamases (MBL) producing Enterobacterales in vivo. The investigators then use CRISPR/Cas9 technology to remove Enterobacteriaceae bacteria resistance and virulence genes

Detailed description

Clinical information of subjects, including diseases, departments, medication history, days of hospitalization, and treatment outcomes will be collected; Bacterial species names will be identified and drugs sensitivity will be detected; For patients with bloodstream infection of MBL-producing Enterobacterales, ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) was administered at the dose of 2.5 g every 8 hours and aztreonam (ATM) at the dose of 2 g every 8 hours. The primary outcome measure was 30-day all-cause mortality, while secondary outcomes were clinical failure at day 14 and length of stay (LOS) after bloodstream infection diagnosis. Cox regression analysis, including a propensity score (PS) for receiving CAZ-AVI plus ATM, was conducted to assess the primary and secondary outcomes. The CRISPR/Cas9 gene curation technology was used to eliminate the drug resistance and virulence factors of Enterobacteriaceae in the mouse intestinal colonization model.
