Assessment of management and outcome of lower respiratory tract infection

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2020
Background Lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) is an acute disease that is usually presented for 21 days or less. LRTI is a continuous health problem which imposes an enormous burden on the society and is a common reason for out-patient consultation

The role of reactive oxygen species in antibiotic-induced cell death in Burkholderia cepacia complex bacteria [PDF]

, 2016
It was recently proposed that bactericidal antibiotics, besides through specific drug-target interactions, kill bacteria by a common mechanism involving the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Image-based dynamic phenotyping reveals genetic determinants of filamentation-mediated beta-lactam tolerance [PDF]

, 2020
Antibiotic tolerance characterized by slow killing of bacteria in response to a drug can lead to treatment failure and promote the emergence of resistance.

Coxiella-Like Endosymbiont of Rhipicephalus sanguineus Is Required for Physiological Processes During Ontogeny

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Obligatory hematophagous arthropods such as lice, bugs, flies, and ticks harbor bacterial endosymbionts that are expected to complement missing essential nutrients in their diet. Genomic and some experimental evidence support this expectation. Hard ticks

A cost analysis of a broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy in the empirical treatment of health care-associated infections in cirrhotic patients [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment of infections in cirrhosis are crucial. As new guidelines in this context, particularly for health care-associated (HCA) infections, would be needed, we performed a trial documenting whether an ...
