“…Table 7 summarizes some retrospective reviews of cumulative data on cases of Plesiomonas sepsis reported in the English literature (29,108,137). Based upon the review of Woo (108) and several published case reports since 2005, there are now over 40 cases of P. shigelloides bacteremia in the literature (111,114,138,139). This is almost double the number reported by Lee (137) …”

“…A case of sepsis originated in a 13-year-old girl with sickle cell who consumed many crab legs at a crab buffet 4 days prior to her admission (110). Another case of pleisomonad sepsis occurred in a 51-year-old man with liver disease that received a donor liver from a teenage boy who drowned in a freshwater lake (138). Blood cultures drawn from the donor prior to transplantation eventually yielded P. shigelloides.…”

SUMMARYAfter many years in the familyVibrionaceae, the genusPlesiomonas, represented by a single species,P. shigelloides, currently resides in the familyEnterobacteriaceae, although its most appropriate phylogenetic position may yet to be determined. Common environmental reservoirs for plesiomonads include freshwater ecosystems and estuaries and inhabitants of these aquatic environs. Long suspected as being an etiologic agent of bacterial gastroenteritis, convincing evidence supporting this conclusion has accumulated over the past 2 decades in the form of a series of foodborne outbreaks solely or partially attributable toP. shigelloides. The prevalence ofP. shigelloidesenteritis varies considerably, with higher rates reported from Southeast Asia and Africa and lower numbers from North America and Europe. Reasons for these differences may include hygiene conditions, dietary habits, regional occupations, or other unknown factors. Other human illnesses caused byP. shigelloidesinclude septicemia and central nervous system disease, eye infections, and a variety of miscellaneous ailments. For years, recognizable virulence factors potentially associated withP. shigelloidespathogenicity were lacking; however, several good candidates now have been reported, including a cytotoxic hemolysin, iron acquisition systems, and lipopolysaccharide. WhileP. shigelloidesis easy to identify biochemically, it is often overlooked in stool samples due to its smaller colony size or relatively low prevalence in gastrointestinal samples. However, one FDA-approved PCR-based culture-independent diagnostic test system to detect multiple enteropathogens (FilmArray) includesP. shigelloideson its panel. Plesiomonads produce β-lactamases but are typically susceptible to many first-line antimicrobial agents, including quinolones and carbapenems.

“…Accurate estimates of the incidence of Plesiomonas-related gastroenteritis and extraintestinal infections both globally and at the level of individual countries remain unknown [1,2,[4][5][6][7]10,[20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37]. Retrospective reviews of infections due to P. shigelloides in China and Hong Kong have been published [38], and cases of P. shigelloides co-infection with viral and bacterial diarrheal pathogens are common in the literature [39].…”

“…There have been a few recent reviews on P. shigelloides [2,14,48] but no comprehensive surveys of published studies on P. shigelloides have been yet conducted. On the other hand, bibliometric analyses have been applied to global disease research on viral agents such as dengue virus [49], Ebola virus [50], John Cunningham virus [51], Mayaro virus [52], Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus [53] [34], yellow fever virus [54], West Nile virus [55], and Zika virus [56]; and bacterial agents such as Campylobacter [45], Leishmania species [57], and Mycobacterium tuberculosis [58]. Other bibliometric analyses have addressed Plasmodium species and resistant malaria vectors [59,60], Toxocara species [43], and antifungal triazole resistance (especially in Candida and Aspergillus species) [46].…”

Plesiomonas shigelloides is an emerging pathogen with damaging effects on human health such as gastroenteritis and extraintestinal infections. Here, we carried out a bibliometric survey that aimed to examine publication trends in Plesiomonas-related research by time and place, international collaborative works, identify gaps and suggest directions for future research. The search term “Plesiomonas shigelloides” was used to retrieve articles published between 1990 and 2017 from the Web of Science database. Only primary research articles were included in the analysis. A total of 155 articles were published within the survey period, with an average of 5.54±2.66 articles per year and an annual growth rate of −0.8%. Research output peaked in 2000 and 2006 (each accounting for 7.7% of the total). The United States ranked first in terms of numbers of articles (n = 29, 18.1%) and total citations (n = 451). Cameroon, Canada, Cuba, Switzerland and Turkey co-shared the 10th position each with 2 articles (1.3%). Research collaboration was low (collaboration index = 3. 32). In addition to Plesiomonas shigelloides (n = 82, 52.9%), the top Authors Keywords and research focus included lipopolysaccharide and nuclear magnetic resonance (n = 13, 8.4%). Diarrhea (n = 43, 27.7%), Aeromonas species (n = 41, 26.5%) and infections (n = 31, 20.0%) were also highly represented in Keywords-Plus. Authors’ collaborations and coupling networks formed two mega-clusters which nodes were shared solely by authors from high-income countries. The common conceptual framework in retrieved articles determined by K-means clustering revealed three clusters with sizes of 7, 16, and 29, representing research responses focused on extraintestinal and gastroenteritis, P. shigelloides lipopolysaccharide structure, and co-infections, respectively. Our bibliometric analysis revealed a global diminishing research in Plesiomonas; greater research outcomes from high-income countries compared to others and low collaboration with developing countries.
