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 ...

Evolutionary and Epidemiological Characterization of Multidrug‐Resistant Escherichia coli Isolated From Pangolins in China

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malayan pangolin populations have fallen to a critically endangered level, and illegal trafficking of wild pangolins is a global problem. Little is known about antimicrobial‐resistant bacteria (MDRB) harbored by pangolins, although pangolins are frequently consumed as food or used in traditional medicine. In this study, we report for the first

Antimicrobial Resistance in Children With Bloodstream Infections: A Population‐Based Study in Stockholm, Sweden

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim We retrospectively evaluated trends in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in paediatric bloodstream infections and assessed changes in antimicrobial prescription patterns over a 20‐year period. Methods We analysed positive blood cultures from children admitted with suspected serious infection between 1998 and 2018.

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.

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 ...

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.

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

Urban ants as potential mechanical vectors of pathogenic and antibiotic‐resistant bacteria in a Brazilian hospital

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Nine ant taxa were identified in a Brazilian hospital, with Tapinoma melanocephalum and Dorymyrmex brunneus being the most abundant. Eighty‐five percent of collected ants yielded detectable bacterial growth, including clinically relevant genera such as Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas, Escherichia coli and Pluralibacter.
