    Abstract Here, we reported two draft genomes of Fusobacterium simiae: strain DSM 19848, initially isolated from monkey dental plaque, and its close relative strain Marseille-Q7035, cultivated from a human intra-abdominal abscess puncture fluid. Their genome sizes are 2.4 Mb and 2.5Mb, respectively. Their G+C contents were 27.1% and 27.2%, respectively.

    Abstract Cardiovascular infections are the most severe and potentially lethal among the persistent focalized Coxiella burnetii infections. While aortic infections on aneurysms or prostheses are well-known, with specific complications (risk of fatal rupture), new non-aortic vascular infections are increasingly being described thanks to the emerging use of 18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography ( 18 F-FDG PET-scan). Here, we describe an infection of a femoro-popliteal bypass that would not have been diagnosed without the use of PET-scan. It is well-known that vascular prosthetic material is a site favorable for bacterial persistence, but the description of unusual anatomical sites, outside the heart or aorta, should raise the clinicians’ awareness and generalize the indications for PET-scan, with careful inclusion of the upper and lower limbs (not included in PET-scan for cancer), particularly in the presence of vascular prostheses. Future studies will be needed to precisely determine their optimal management.

    Abstract Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of mpox virus (MPXV) infections in the general population consulting for routine sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in our Marseille public hospital. In fact, the recent worldwide MPXV outbreak mainly impacted men who have sex with men and the prevalence of MPXV infections in the general population remains poorly defined.
    Methods: All samples addressed routinely to our microbiological laboratory for STIs between July 1 and October 15, 2022 were screened with MPXV-specific quantitative polymerase chain reaction.
    Results: A total of 2688 samples from 1896 patients suspected of having STIs were tested and eight (0.4%) patients were incidentally diagnosed with MPXV infection, including six men and two women. MPXV was detected in rectal swabs (n = 2), urine (n = 2), vaginal swabs (n = 2), a urethral swab (n = 1), and a skin swab (n = 1).
    Conclusions: This study suggests that some MPXV infections are likely to be underdiagnosed because of their non-specific clinical presentation and/or insufficient clinical knowledge of the disease. Our data showed that systematic screening was particularly useful for detecting MPXV in patients without classic lesions or cases of asymptomatic carriage in patients reporting recent high-risk exposure and in patients presenting no obvious risk factor.

    Abstract Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, an aerobic, non-fermenting, Gram-negative bacterium, is an emerging nosocomial pathogen. It is considered to be a low-grade pathogen, and infections due to S. maltophilia are uncommon. However, in the recent past, S. maltophilia infections have been on the rise, particularly in patients who are either immunocompromised, aged or on long-term antibiotic therapy. Endocarditis due to S. maltophilia is extremely rare. This is a report of two patients with S. maltophilia endocarditis who were diagnosed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing.

    Abstract Brucella intermedia (formerly Ochrobactrum intermedium ), a non-fermentative bacterium, has been isolated from animals and human clinical specimens. It is naturally resistant to polymyxins, including colistin (CO), and may cause opportunistic infections in humans. We isolated six Brucella intermedia strains from Senegalese monkey stool. In order to determine whether an efflux pump mechanism was involved in CO resistance in B. intermedia, we evaluated the effects of verapamil (VRP), reserpine (RSP), phe-arg β-naphthylamide dihydrochloride (PAβN) and carbonyl cyanide 3-chloro phenyl hydrazone (CCCP), four efflux pump inhibitors, on these colistin-resistant strains. Using the broth microdilution method, a CO and CCCP combination of 2 µg/mL and 10 µg/mL, respectively, significantly reduced the CO minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of B. intermedia , supporting an efflux pump mechanism. In contrast, VRP, PAβN and RSP did not restore CO susceptibility. A time kill assay showed a bactericidal effect of the CO–CCCP combination. Genomic analysis revealed a potential implication in the CO resistance mechanism of some conserved efflux pumps, such as YejABEF, NorM and EmrAB, as previously reported in other bacteria. An inhibitory effect of the CO–CCCP combination was observed on biofilm formation using the crystal violet method. These results suggest that the intrinsic CO resistance in Brucella intermedia is linked to an efflux pump mechanism and that the synergistic effect of CO–CCCP may open a new field to identify new treatments to restore antibiotic efficacy in humans.

    Abstract Akkermansia muciniphila is a human intestinal tract bacterium that plays an important role in the mucus layer renewal. Several studies have demonstrated that it is a modulator for gut homeostasis and a probiotic for human health. The Akkermansia genus contains two species with standing in nomenclature but their genomic diversity remains unclear. In this study, eight new Akkermansia sp. strains were isolated from the human gut. Using the digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH), average nucleotide identity (ANI) and core genome-based phylogenetic analysis applied to 104 A. muciniphila whole genomes sequences, strains were reclassified into three clusters. Cluster I groups A. muciniphila strains (including strain ATCC BAA-835
