Exploring Synergistic Combinations in Extended and Pan-Drug Resistant (XDR and PDR) Whole Genome Sequenced Acinetobacter baumannii

Microorganisms, 2023
Background: The diminishing antimicrobial options for the treatment of XDR and PDR Acinetobacter baumannii is an increasing concern. In this study, we assessed the in vitro synergy of the fosfomycin (FOS) with meropenem (MEM), amikacin (AK), tigecycline (

Multidrug resistance, inappropriate empiric treatment and hospital mortality in Acinetobacter baumannii pneumonia and sepsis [PDF]

, 2016
Background: The relationship between multidrug resistance (MDR), inappropriate empiric therapy (IET), and mortality among patients with Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) remains unclear. We examined it using a large U.S. database. Methods: We conducted a

Study of antibiotic resistance pattern in methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus with special reference to newer antibiotic

Journal of Global Infectious Diseases, 2015
The worldwide epidemic of antibiotic resistance is in danger of ending the golden age of antibiotic therapy. Resistance impacts on all areas of medicine, and is making successful empirical therapy much more difficult to achieve.

Comparison of Definitions of Multiple Drug Resistance to Antibiotics and Its Alternative Multiple Antibiotic Resistance and Their Methodological Critical Analysis

Mediterranean Journal of Infection, Microbes and Antimicrobials, 2019
Introduction: Multiple resistance to antibiotics is a problem in modern medicine and acceptable definitions are needed to describe it. The widely accepted method for this purpose is the Multiple Drug Resistance (MDR) definition and the older but less ...

Characterisation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa related to bovine mastitis [PDF]

, 2013
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the causative pathogens of bovine mastitis. Most P. aeruginosa strains possess the type III secretion system (TTSS), which may increase somatic cell counts (SCCs) in milk from mastitis-affected cows.
