Resumen

Background: Urinary tract infections (UTI) are one of the most common pathologies in Mexico and the majority are caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). UPEC possesses virulence and resistance determinants that promote UTI development and affect diagnosis and treatment. This study aims to systematically review published reports of virulence genes, antibiotic resistance, and phylogenetic groups prevalent in clinical isolates of UPEC in the Mexican population. Methods: Systematic review with meta-analysis was performed following PRISMA guidelines. Articles in both English and Spanish were included. Total prevalence with a 95% confidence interval of each characteristic was calculated. Heterogeneity between studies and geographical areas was assessed by the Cochran Q test (Q), I-square (I2), and H-square (H2). Egger's test was used for risk of bias in publications and asymmetry evaluations. Results: Forty-two articles were analyzed. The most prevalent virulence genes were ecp (97.25%; n = 364) and fimH (82.34%; n = 1,422), which are associated with lower UTI, followed by papGII (40.98%; n = 810), fliC (38.87%; n = 319), hlyA (23.55%; n = 1,521), responsible for with upper UTI. More than 78.13% (n = 1,893) of the isolates were classified as multidrug-resistant, with a higher prevalence of resistance to those antibiotics that are implemented in the basic regimen in Mexico. The most frequently reported Extended Spectrum β-Lactamase (ESBL) was CTX-M-1 (55.61%; n = 392), and the predominant phylogroup was B2 (35.94%; n = 1,725). Conclusion: UPEC strains are responsible for a large portion of both lower and upper UTI in Mexico, and their multi-drug resistance drastically reduces the number of therapeutic options available.
