Serious Bacterial Infections in Hospitalized Neonates in Eastern Ethiopia: Investigating the Emerging Pathogen Pantoea dispersa Compared With Klebsiella pneumoniae

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Serious bacterial infections (SBIs) are major contributors to neonatal morbidity and mortality in low‐income countries. We describe the aetiology and risk factors for neonatal bacteraemia and in‐hospital mortality in eastern Ethiopia, focusing on Pantoea dispersa, a rarely studied pathogen, and Klebsiella pneumoniae.

Detection of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae producing NDM-1 in Lebanon

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2012
Carbapenem resistance has been encountered globally with poor outcome of infected patients. NDM-1 (New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase) gene containing organisms have emerged and are now spreading in all continents.

Aetiology and Antibiotic Susceptibility of Common Bacterial Infections in Hospitalised Patients: A 2019 Multisite Cross‐Sectional Survey in Jakarta, Indonesia

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To describe the aetiology and antibiotic susceptibility patterns of common bacterial infections in hospitalised patients in Jakarta, Indonesia. Methods We conducted a hospital‐wide point prevalence survey in six hospitals in 2019, capturing data from routinely ordered bacterial cultures taken before the start of antibiotic treatment.

Comparison of Three Phenotypic Methods of Carbapenemase Enzyme Detection to Identify Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales

, 2022
The prevalence of multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacilli has increased worldwide. Critical care areas of most hospitals use carbapenem antibiotics for the empirical treatment of gram-negative bacterial (GNB) infections.

Faecal Microbiota Transplantation Reduces Lesion Severity and Medication Use in Canine Atopic Dermatitis: A Randomised, Placebo‐Controlled, Double‐Blinded Clinical Trial

Veterinary Dermatology, EarlyView.
Background: Faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is an established therapy for gastrointestinal disease, yet its role in canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) remains unclear. Hypothesis/Objectives: We hypothesised that adjunctive FMT improves clinical severity and reduces symptomatic medication use in dogs with cAD.

Molecular Epidemiology of Carbapenem-Resistant Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Carrying Metallo-H-Lactamase Genes in Taiwan

, 2008
Seventy-two isolates of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA ) collected through the Taiwan Surveillance of Antimicrobial Resistance ( TSAR) program in 2000 and 2002 were studied for carriage of metallo-h- lactamase (MBL), integrase genes ...

ESBL-Producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae Exhibit Divergent Paths During In-Human Evolution Towards Carbapenem Resistance

Treatment of infections caused by ESBL-producing Escherichia coli (EC) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) with carbapenem antibiotics can lead to the development of carbapenem resistance over time through the acquisition of porin mutations and plasmids ...

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,

Linking Antimicrobial Use and Resistance Data to Obtain a Surrogate for Appropriateness: An Approach for Assessing Carbapenem Use

Antimicrobial Stewardship & Healthcare Epidemiology
Background: Carbapenem use is a primary target of antimicrobial stewardship programs with attempts made to limit usage to patients with suspected or documented multidrug resistant Gram-negative infections. Antimicrobial use (AU) data and the standardized
