Genomic diversity of diarrheagenic multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli across asymptomatic children and livestock in Nairobi, Kenya
Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli represents a critical public health threat, yet their genomic characteristics in community settings remain poorly described. We sequenced 77 multidrug-resistant isolates from children (n = 59), livestock (n = 17), and food (n = 1) in peri-urban Nairobi, Kenya. Phylogenetic analysis revealed polyphyletic diversity across phylogroups and sequence types without host-specific clustering. We detected high-risk lineages S…
Antibiotic prescribing practices in community and clinical settings during the Covid-19 pandemic in Nairobi, Kenya
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted healthcare systems, including antibiotic use practices. We present data on patterns of antibiotic dispensing and use in community and hospital settings respectively in Nairobi, Kenya during the pandemic. We conducted interviews with 243 pharmacies in Nairobi using a standardised questionnaire from November to December 2021. The data collected included demographic characteristics, antibiotic custome…
Risk factors for diarrheagenic Escherichia coli infection in children aged 6–24 months in peri-urban community, Nairobi, Kenya
Escherichia coli commonly inhabits the gut of humans and animals as part of their microbiota. Though mostly innocuous, some strains have virulence markers that make them pathogenic. This paper presents results of a cross-sectional epidemiological study examining prevalence of diarrheagenic E . coli (DEC) pathotypes in stool samples of asymptomatic healthy children (n = 540) in Dagoretti South subcounty, Nairobi, Kenya. E . coli was cultured and p…
A cross-sectional survey of practices and knowledge among antibiotic retailers in Nairobi, Kenya
BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) driven by antibiotic consumption is a growing global health threat. However, data on antimicrobial consumption patterns in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) is sparse. Here, we investigate the patterns of antibiotic sales in humans and livestock in urban Nairobi, Kenya, and evaluate the level of awareness and common behaviours related to antibiotic use and AMR amongst human and veterinary pharmaci…
