Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae: An Emerging Problem in Children [PDF]

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2012
Antibiotic resistance among gram-negative bacteria has reached critical levels. The rise of carbapenem resistance in Enterobacteriaceae carrying additional resistance genes to multiple antibiotic classes has created a generation of organisms nearly resistant to all available therapy. Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infections are known to

Systematic review of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae causing neonatal sepsis in China

Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials, 2019
Background Carbapenems are β-lactam antibiotics which are used to treat severe infections caused by multidrug resistant Enterobacteriacea. The recent emergence and rapid spread of Enterobacteriaceae resistant to carbapenems is a global concern.

Early Onset Bacteremia in Kidney Transplant Recipients in the Current Era

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Bloodstream infection (BSI) after kidney transplantation increases the risk of graft loss and mortality. We aimed to identify contemporary risk factors and outcomes of early BSI (eBSI) at our transplant center. Methods We conducted a retrospective chart review of adult kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) from 2019 to 2023.

Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae and endoscopy: An evolving threat [PDF]

American Journal of Infection Control, 2016
Several clusters of Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infections associated with contaminated endoscopes have recently been reported. Interim guidelines for mitigating endoscope-associated transmission have been proposed, but there has not been a systematic appraisal of CRE prevention practices.We conducted a systematic review of endoscope ...

Whole Genome Characterization of Klebsiella Strains in European Hedgehogs and Human Nosocomial Settings Identified Shared Sequence Types, Antimicrobial Resistance Genes and Plasmids

Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Klebsiella pneumoniae is a pathogen associated with healthcare‐acquired infections and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) to beta‐lactams and carbapenems. Although wild animals are not typically exposed to antibiotics, they can harbour resistant strains. The European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) is increasingly found in urban areas,

Combination of Oral Doxycycline and Rifampin for Pan‐Drug Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Infection: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Pan‐drug resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae is a major therapeutic challenge, particularly when standard last‐line agents are unavailable or contraindicated. We report a 45‐year‐old man with multifocal osteomyelitis and persistent purulent wound discharge despite broad‐spectrum antibiotics, repeated debridement, and two sequential amputations ...
