Extended-spectrum beta-lactamases: the European experience [PDF]

, 2001
Extended-spectrum beta-lactamases mediate resistance to cephalosporin antibiotics and were first discovered in Europe in the early 1980s. They have become a widespread problem, particularly in Klebsiella pneumoniae, but increasingly in non-typhoid ...

Ventilator-associated pneumonia in a tertiary care hospital in India: role of multi-drug resistant pathogens

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2010
Background: Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP) is the most frequent intensive-care-unit (ICU)-acquired infection. The aetiology of VAP varies with different patient populations and types of ICUs.

Exposure assessment of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases/AmpC beta-lactamases-producing in meat in Denmark [PDF]

, 2013
Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamases (ESBL) and AmpC Beta-Lactamases (AmpC) are of great concern because of their ability to cause antimicrobial resistance in Enterobacteriaceae hampering the effect of treatment with beta-lactam antibiotics.

Periodontal microbiology and microbial etiology of periodontal diseases: Historical concepts and contemporary perspectives

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract This narrative review summarizes the collective knowledge on periodontal microbiology, through a historical timeline that highlights the European contribution in the global field. The etiological concepts on periodontal disease culminate to the ecological plaque hypothesis and its dysbiosis‐centered interpretation.

Interaction between Class B Beta-Lactamases and Suicide Substrates of Active-Site Serine Beta-Lactamases [PDF]

, 1999
peer reviewedThe most widely used inactivators of active-site serine beta-lactamases behave as substrates of four class B metallo-beta-lactamases, but the efficiency of the catalytic process can vary by several orders of magnitude.

Supra and subgingival application of antiseptics or antibiotics during periodontal therapy

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Periodontal diseases (gingivitis and periodontitis) are characterized by inflammatory processes which arise as a result of disruption of the balance in the oral ecosystem. According to the current S3 level clinical practice guidelines, therapy of patients with periodontitis involves a stepwise approach that includes the control of the patient ...

Functional metagenomic analysis reveals rivers are a reservoir for diverse antibiotic resistance genes [PDF]

, 2014
The environment harbours a significant diversity of uncultured bacteria and a potential source of novel and extant resistance genes which may recombine with clinically important bacteria disseminated into environmental reservoirs.

The impact of long-distance mutations on the Ω-loop conformation in TEM type β-lactamases [PDF]

, 2019
β-lactamases are hydrolytic enzymes primarily responsible for occurrence and abundance of bacteria resistant to β-lactam antibiotics. TEM type β-lactamases are formed by the parent enzyme TEM-1 and more than two hundred of its mutants.

Explaining Adherence Success in Sub-Saharan Africa: An Ethnographic Study. [PDF]

, 2009
Individuals living with HIV/AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa generally take more than 90% of prescribed doses of antiretroviral therapy (ART). This number exceeds the levels of adherence observed in North America and dispels early scale-up concerns that ...
