Abstract
Recurrence is a rare complication of group B Streptococcus (GBS) neonatal infections. We conducted a retrospective observational study on GBS neonatal invasive infections in France from 2007 to 2021. A total of 1527 cases were reported, of which 36 (2.36%) were recurrent. Recurrence mainly concerned preterm (68%) and low-birth-weight (72%) infants and was associated with the hypervirulent GBS clonal complex 17 (83%; odds ratio, 2.86 [95% confidence interval, 1.18-6.92]). No β-lactam-tolerant strains were identified, and bacterial whole-genome sequencing could not reveal any specific feature associated with recurrence. Large-cohort studies should be undertaken to address the optimal management of these uncommon diseases.
期刊介绍：
Published continuously since 1904, The Journal of Infectious Diseases (JID) is the premier global journal for original research on infectious diseases. The editors welcome Major Articles and Brief Reports describing research results on microbiology, immunology, epidemiology, and related disciplines, on the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of infectious diseases; on the microbes that cause them; and on disorders of host immune responses. JID is an official publication of the Infectious Diseases Society of America.
