Target Fidelity and Failure: Structure–Activity Relationship of High-Molecular-Mass Penicillin-Binding Proteins (HMM-PBPs) in Refractory Granulicatella adiacens Endocarditis

Antibiotics
Background/Objectives: Granulicatella adiacens infective endocarditis is conventionally managed with penicillin, ampicillin, or ceftriaxone in combination with gentamicin, although double beta-lactam regiments have been proposed a safer alternative to ...

Carriage of antimicrobial‐resistant E. coli in urban stray cats (Felis catus)

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Escherichia coli is a growing concern in both human and veterinary medicine, driven by the inappropriate use of antimicrobials. Companion animals may act as community reservoirs and sentinels for antimicrobial‐resistant bacteria due to their close contact with humans and other animals.

Prediction of antimicrobial susceptibility of pneumococci based on whole-genome sequencing data: a direct comparison of two genomic tools to conventional antimicrobial susceptibility testing

Journal of Clinical Microbiology
Determination of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in pneumococcal isolates is important for surveillance purposes and in a clinical context. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) of pneumococci is complicated by the need for exact minimal inhibitory ...

Novel approaches for drug development against chronic primary pain: A systematic review

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic primary pain (CPP) persisting for more than 3 months, associated with significant emotional distress without any known underlying cause, is an unmet medical need. Traditional or adjuvant analgesics do not provide satisfactory pain relief for a great proportion of these patients.

Patch Testing in Paediatric Drug Hypersensitivity Reactions: Current Evidence and Clinical Implications

Contact Dermatitis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) are common in children and are diagnostically challenging, with cutaneous manifestations being the most common presentation. Patch testing (PT) is a well‐established tool for investigating delayed T‐cell‐mediated reactions and is widely used in patients with contact dermatitis.

Impact of beta-lactam allergy labels on bone marrow transplant patients

Antimicrobial Stewardship & Healthcare Epidemiology
Background: Approximately 95% of patients with a beta-lactam allergy noted in their medical record are not truly allergic when tested. These patients may unnecessarily avoid first-line antibiotics, resulting in increased treatment failure, higher costs ...

Cryo‐EM structures of multiple‐peptide resistance factor (MprF) from Pseudomonas aeruginosa

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Cryo‐EM analysis of MprF from Pseudomonas aeruginosa reveals a dimeric enzyme, distinct from Rhizobium homologues. The soluble GNAT domain contains a dynamic amphipathic helix (TTH) that adopts different positions in detergent micelle and nanodisc, relative to the membrane.

Phenotypic Florfenicol Resistance in floR‐Harbouring Flavobacterium psychrophilum Isolates (CC‐ST90): A Case Study From Danish Freshwater Rainbow Trout Aquaculture

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monitoring antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in fish pathogens is essential for supporting sustainable aquaculture. In this study, susceptibility testing and genome sequencing were used to characterize the AMR profile of seven Flavobacterium psychrophilum originating from Danish rainbow trout farms (2019–2022).
