We investigated the susceptibility to antibacterial agents, genotype of penicillin-binding protein (PBP) genes and macrolide resistant genes, and the serotypes against 270 strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae isolated from medical facilities in Gifu and Aichi prefectures between October 2011 and April 2012. These results were compared with those against S. pneumoniae isolated in 2008-2009 and 2010-2011. The number of gPSSP with 3 normal PBP genes, gPISP with 1 or 2 normal PBP genes and gPRSP with 3 abnormal genes isolated in 2011-2012 was 15 (5.6%), 162 (60.0%) and 93 (34.4%) strains, respectively. Compared with those isolated in 2008-2009 and 2010-2011, the numbers of gPRSP were decreasing. On the other hand, the isolates with no macrolide-resistant gene, only mefA, only ermB, and both mefA and ermB were 16 (5.9%), 75 (27.8%), 153 (56.7%) and 26 (9.6%). Compared with those isolated in 2008-2009 and 2010-2011, the numbers of isolates with ermB, which was usually associated with high-level resistance, were increasing. The prevalent pneumococcal serotypes in children were type 3 (14.4%), following by type 15 and 19F (9.3%). The coverages of 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7) and 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) were calculated as 22.9% and 49.2%, respectively. The coverages of PCV7 and PCV13 in gPRSP isolated from children were 47.7% (21/44 strains) and 72.7% (32/44 strains). The MIC90 of each antibacterial agent was as follows; 0.125pg/mL for imipenem, panipenem and garenoxacin, 0.25 μg/mL for meropenem and doripenem, 0.5 μg/mL for cefditoren, moxifloxacin and tosufloxacin, 1 μg/mL for amoxicillin, clavulanic acid/amoxicillin, cefteram, cefcapene and ceftriaxone, 2 μg/mL for benzylpenicillin, ampicillin, sulbactam/ampicillin, piperacillin, tazobactam/piperacillin and levofloxacin, 4 μg/mL for cefdinir, flomoxef and pazufloxacin, 16 μg/mL for minocycline, > 64 μg/mL for clarithromycin and azithromycin, and these MIC90s were about the same as those in 2010-2011.

Based on the results of surveillance in the pediatric field conducted in 2007, 2010, and 2012, we examined the frequency of Haemophilus influenzae serotype b (Hib) strains, the susceptibility for Hib strains to various types of antimicrobial agent, and the relations to patients' background factors. Among all of Haemophilus influenzae, the frequency of Hib strains was 3.6% (14/386 strains) in 2007, 4.8% (23/484 strains) in 2010, 1.2% (5/411 strains) in 2012, and decreasing in 2012. Hib strains were isolated in patients with the following infections: nine patients with respiratory tract infections (upper respiratory tract infection, bronchitis, and pneumonia), three patients with sepsis, one patient with meningitis, and one patient with purulent inflammation of a tendon sheath in 2007; 11 patients with respiratory tract infections (upper respiratory tract infection, bronchitis, and pneumonia), four patients with sepsis, and eight patients with meningitis in 2010, demonstrating a relatively high frequency in patients with invasive infections. However, in 2012, Hib strains were isolated in only four patients with respiratory tract infections (upper respiratory tract infection) and one patient with bronchial asthma. Evaluation of background factors with pediatric patients in whom Hib strains were isolated showed that approximately 70% were male; majority was children under three years of age; and higher detection rates were also related to the background of patients who were attendant to daycare center, had siblings, had received no antimicrobial agents within the previous one month before collecting specimens. Throughout the surveillance between 2007 and 2012, antimicrobial agents with all phases' MICs ≤ 1 μg/mL were cefditoren, cefcapene, and cefteram in the oral β-lactams; tazobactam/piperacillin, ceftriaxone, cefotaxime, and meropenem in the injectable β-lactams; azithromycin in the macrolide; and levofloxacin in the quinolone. After 2010, MIC ranges were evaluated for tebipenem in the oral β-lactam (≤ 0.063-0.25 μg/mL), doripenem in the injectable β-lactam (≤ 0.063-0.5 μg/mL), and tosufloxacin in the quinolone (≤ 0.063 μg/mL). Throughout the surveillance, Hib strains were highly susceptible to the above mentioned antimicrobial agents, and there was no significant change in the susceptibility.

We investigated genotype of penicillin-binding protein (PBP) genes and macrolide resistant genes, the serotypes and the susceptibility to antibacterial agents against 258 strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae isolated from medical facilities in Gifu and Aichi prefectures between January 2010 and March 2011. These results were compared with those against 377 strains of S. pneumoniae isolated in 2008-2009. The number of genotype penicillin-susceptible S. pneumoniae (gPSSP) with 3 normal PBP genes, genotype penicillin-intermediate S. pneumoniae (gPISP) with 1 or 2 normal PBP genes and genotype penicillin-resistant S. pneumoniae (gPRSP) with 3 abnormal genes was 11 (4.3%), 135 (52.3%) and 112 (43.4%) strains, respectively. The isolates with no macrolide-resistant gene, only mefA, only ermB, and both mefA and ermB were 17 (6.6%), 65 (25.2%), 143 (55.4%) and 33 (12.8%). The prevalent pneumococcal serotypes isolated from children were type 19F (18.2%), following by type 6A and 15 (11.7%). The potential coverage of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7) was 43.8%. The prevalent pneumococcal serotypes isolated from adults were high in order of type 19F (12.8%), type 6A, 3 and 11 (10.3%), excepting non-typable strains (17.9%), and from elderly persons were type 6B (23.2%) and type 3 (13.4%). The MIC90 of each antibacterial agents was as follows; 0.0625 microg/mL for garenoxacin, 0.125 microg/mL for panipenem, 0.25 microg/mL for imipenem, doripenem, tosufloxacin, 0.5 microg/mL for cefditoren, meropenem, moxifloxacin, 1 microg/mL for amoxicillin, clavulanic acid/amoxicillin, cefteram, cefcapene, ceftriaxone, 2 microg/mL for benzylpenicillin, piperacillin, tazobactam/ piperacillin, pazufloxacin, levofloxacin, 4 microg/mL for cefdinir, flomoxef, 16 microg/mL for minocycline, > 64 microg/mL for clarithromycin, azithromycin and these MIC90s were about the same as those in 2008-2009.
