FoodNet Non-O157 Shiga ToxinProducing E. coli Study: Assessment of
Risk Factors for Laboratory-Confirmed
Infections and Characterization of
Illnesses by Microbiological
Characteristics (0920–0905 expires 11/
30/14)—Extension—National Center for
Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious
Diseases, Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Each year many Shiga toxinproducing E. coli (STEC) infections
occur in the United States, ranging in
severity from mild diarrhea, to
hemorrhagic colitis and in some cases,
life-threatening hemolytic uremic
syndrome (HUS). HUS occurs most
frequently following infection with
serogroup O157; 6% of patients with
this type of STEC infection develop
HUS, with highest occurrence in
children aged < 5 years. HUS has a
fatality rate of approximately 5%; up to
25% of HUS survivors are left with
chronic kidney damage. STEC are
broadly categorized into two groups by
their O antigens, STEC O157 and nonO157 STEC. The serogroup O157 is
most frequently isolated and most
strongly associated with HUS. Risk
factors for STEC O157 infections in the
United States and internationally have
been intensely studied. Non-O157 STEC
are a diverse group that includes all
Shiga toxin-producing E. coli of
serogroups other than O157. Over 50
STEC serogroups are known to have
caused human illness. Numerous nonO157 outbreaks have been reported from

throughout the world and clinical
outcomes in some patients can be as
severe as those seen with STEC O157
infections, however, little is known
about the specific risk factors for
infections due to non-O157 STEC
serogroups. More comprehensive
understanding of risk factors for
sporadic non-O157 STEC infections is
needed to inform prevention and
control efforts.
The FoodNet case-control study is the
first multistate investigation of nonoutbreak-associated non-O157 STEC
infections in the United States. It
investigates risk factors for non-O157
STEC infections, both as a group and
individually for the most common nonO157 STEC serogroups. In addition, the
study characterizes the major known
virulence factors of non-O157 STEC to
assess how risk factors and clinical
features vary by virulence factor
profiles. As the largest, most
comprehensive, and most powerful
study of its kind, it is making an
important contribution towards better
understanding of non-O157 STEC
infections and will provide sciencebased recommendations for
interventions to prevent these
infections. Study enrollment began
between July and September 2012 (sites
had staggered start dates) and is
scheduled to run for 36 months. Since
we have not yet enrolled enough cases
to meet the study objectives, we are
requesting an extension.
Persons with non-O157 STEC
infections who are identified as part of
routine public health surveillance and
randomly selected healthy persons in
the patients’ communities (to serve as
controls) are contacted and offered
enrollment into this study. Participation
is completely voluntary and there is no
cost for enrollment. The total burden is
268 hours.

Description: The Program Instruction,
prepared in response to the enactment
of the Childrens Justice Act (CJA), Title
II of Public Law 111–320, Child Abuse
Prevention and Treatment Act
Reauthorization of 2010, provides
direction to the States and Territories to
accomplish the purposes of assisting
States in developing, establishing and
operating programs designed to
improve: (1) The assessment and
investigation of suspected child abuse
and neglect cases, including cases of
suspected child sexual abuse and
exploitation, in a manner that limits
additional trauma to the child and the
child’s family; (2) the assessment and
investigation of cases of suspected child
abuse-related fatalities and suspected
child neglect-related fatalities; (3) the
investigation and prosecution of cases of
child abuse and neglect, including child

sexual abuse and exploitation; and (4)
the assessment and investigation of
cases involving children with
disabilities or serious health-related
problems who are suspected victims of
child abuse or neglect. This Program
Instruction contains information
collection requirements that are found
in Public Law 111–320 at Sections
107(b) and 107(d), and pursuant to
receiving a grant award. The
information being collected is required
by statute to be submitted pursuant to
receiving a grant award. The
information submitted will be used by
the agency to ensure compliance with
the statute; to monitor, evaluate and
measure grantee achievements in
addressing the investigation and
prosecution of child abuse and neglect;
and to report to Congress.
Respondents: State Governments.
