Mortality after broad‐ versus narrow‐spectrum antibiotic treatment for patients with nursing and healthcare‐associated pneumonia: A nationwide retrospective cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Nursing and healthcare‐associated pneumonia (NHCAP) is defined as pneumonia occurring in individuals with frequent healthcare contact, such as residents of care facilities or patients with impaired activities of daily living. The effectiveness of broad‐spectrum antibiotics in treating NHCAP remains unclear.

Cephalosporinases associated with outer membrane vesicles released by Bacteroides spp. protect gut pathogens and commensals against beta-lactam antibiotics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Objectives: To identify β-lactamase genes in gut commensal Bacteroides species and to assess the impact of these enzymes, when carried by outer membrane vesicles (OMVs), in protecting enteric pathogens and commensals.

Anterolateral‐Thigh Fascia Lata Free Flap Versus Fibula Free Flap for Mandibular Osteoradionecrosis

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The anterolateral thigh fascia lata “rescue” free flap has been employed as a novel tool in the treatment of advanced partial thickness mandibular osteoradionecrosis. Compared with the traditional fibula free flap for the same indication, the “rescue” flap provides similar outcomes in terms of disease resolution, superior functional outcomes, and ...

Bicyclic Boronates as Potent Inhibitors of AmpC, the Class C β-Lactamase from Escherichia coli

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Resistance to β-lactam antibacterials, importantly via production of β-lactamases, threatens their widespread use. Bicyclic boronates show promise as clinically useful, dual-action inhibitors of both serine- (SBL) and metallo- (MBL) β-lactamases.

Asp-120 Locates Zn2 for Optimal Metallo-β-lactamase Activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Metallo-β-lactamases are zinc-dependent hydrolases that inactivate β-lactam antibiotics, rendering bacteria resistant to them. Asp-120 is fully conserved in all metallo-β-lactamases and is central to catalysis.

Repurposing of Meropenem and Nadifloxacin for Treatment of Burn Patients? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The escalating number of multidrug resistant pathogens has demanded the swift development of new and potent antibiotics (ref. 2). Metallo-[beta]-lactamases (MBLs) continue to evolve, rendering the latest generation of carbapenem antibiotics useless (ref.
