Surveillance of human listeriosis in France, 2001-2003

Abstract: Mandatory notification of listeriosis began in France in 1999. Enhanced public health surveillance, including routine molecular characterisation of Listeria monocytogenes strains, epidemiologic follow up of cases, and collection of food samples, has improved the sensitivity of outbreak detection and response.

“…Isolates with indistinguishable Apa1 and Asc1 DNA macrorestriction profi les, fi rst based on visual comparison of banding patterns (since 2006 by using BioNumerics 4.5 software [Applied Maths Saint-Martens-Latem, Belgium]), were considered to be the same pulsovar. Detected clusters were reported to InVS for investigation (3).…”

“…Este hecho contrasta con la distribución estacional conocida para los países del hemisferio norte donde la mayor concentración de casos se da en estos meses [22][23][24] , aunque en Finlandia se da un patrón mixto con casos en invierno y verano 25 . En el Reino Unido, el aumento estacional de casos ha sido asociado mediante modelos matemáticos a la temperatura del mes en curso o del mes precedente 24 , una explicación no aplicable a nuestro país por la baja incidencia de casos en verano.…”

“…Estos datos dan cuenta, por primera vez en Chile, de la importancia relativa de estos dos tipos, no siendo reconocida previamente por la naturaleza selectiva de los reportes de casos. Además, concuerdan con las formas predominantes de infección invasora descritas en el mundo 23,34,36 . Algunos reportes indican que las infecciones del SNC tienden a declinar en los últimos años respecto a un incremento relativo de los casos de bacteriemia 36 ; este fenómeno no fue observado en nuestra serie (datos no mostrados).…”

“…The incidence of listeriosis increased in several European countries between 2009 and 2013 (such as Germany, the Netherlands, Spain and the United Kingdom [1,2]) and, was the most frequent cause of hospitalisation and death (15.6%) due to the consumption of contaminated food in Europe in 2013 [2]. This increase reinforces the need for each country to establish enhanced molecular surveillance of listeriosis for efficient outbreak detection, investigation and control, as carried out by PulseNet USA or the Centre National de Référence des Listeria, Institut Pasteur, Paris, for example [3,4]. A similar programme for listeriosis surveillance at European Union level by harmonising methodological variables such as case definition, laboratory procedures and reporting systems is crucial.…”
