A Reassessment of Prophylactic Antibiotics in Low‐Infection‐Risk Electrophysiology Procedures

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Certain electrophysiology (EP) procedures are associated with minimal tissue disruption and do not involve permanent transvenous leads. As a result, these interventions carry a lower risk of device‐ or procedure‐related infection. These procedures include placement of implantable cardiac monitors, leadless pacemakers, and left atrial appendage

AcrAB-TolC efflux pump system plays a role in carbapenem non-susceptibility in Escherichia coli

BMC Microbiology, 2019
Background Efflux pump mediated antibiotic resistance is an unnoticed and undetected mechanism in clinical microbiology laboratory. RND efflux systems are known for aminoglycoside and tetracycline resistance whereas their role in carbapenem non ...

Plant NAOGAT (ArgJ) Structure Reveals Mechanism of Ornithine Biosynthesis, Preference for Acetylornithine and Susceptibility to Mangotoxin

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arginine metabolism in plants is targeted by phytopathogens such as Pseudomonas syringae strains, which produce toxins that affect enzymes of plant arginine metabolism, causing devastating infections in crops. In this work, the structural and functional properties of plant N‐acetylornithine glutamate acetyltransferase (NAOGAT), the key ...

Perioperative Prophylaxis in Pediatric Solid Organ Transplantation: A Baseline Stewardship Audit Using Routine Electronic Data

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Using routine electronic data from 164 pediatric transplants, we created reproducible stewardship measures of perioperative prophylaxis practice across transplant populations and protocol pathways. Starting prophylaxis was reliable, but continuation beyond intended stop targets—especially in abdominal transplantation—identified the clearest target for ...
