Risk Factors of Blood Culture Positivity and Mortality in Bloodstream Infections: A Population‐Based Study of Patients With B‐Cell Malignancies

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Bloodstream infections remain a major cause of mortality among cancer patients. Pathogen surveillance and risk stratification tools are key to improved management. This study describes trends in causative pathogens and explores risk factors for positive blood cultures (PBCs) and post‐infection mortality in cancer patients.

Use of Ancillary Carbapenemase Tests To Improve Specificity of Phenotypic Definitions for Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2017
ABSTRACT Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) are a significant threat to public health. In 2015, CDC revised the surveillance definition for CPE to include all Enterobacteriaceae resistant to any carbapenem tested.

Evaluation of a modified meropenem hydrolysis assay on a large cohort of KPC and VIM carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) have spread globally and represent a serious and growing threat to public health. The introduction of rapid and sensitive methods for the detection of carbapenemase-producing bacteria is of increasing ...

Proposed Meropenem Breakpoints for Interpretation of Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing of Bacteria Isolated From Dogs

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Meropenem is a carbapenem antibiotic used infrequently in veterinary medicine. However, antimicrobial susceptibility testing standards are needed to monitor for resistance caused by carbapenem resistant Enterobacterales (CRE). The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) does not have veterinary‐specific carbapenem breakpoints for ...

Prevalence of Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae and the Genes Responsible for Carbapenemase Production in a Tertiary Care Hospital in South India [PDF]

, 2023
Introduction: Carbapenem resistance in Gram-negative bacilli (GNB) is a major concern in the management of resistant infections. The mechanism of carbapenem resistance is most commonly mediated by carbapenemases. The five most common genes (NDM, KPC, VIM,

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,

Role of Gram‐Negative Bacterial Infections in Acute‐On‐Chronic Liver Failure

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Acute‐on‐chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a systemic disease characterised by an acute clinical deterioration of pre‐existing liver cirrhosis leading to multiple organ failure due to systemic inflammation. It may be triggered by the translocation of bacteria and bacterial compounds across the gut barrier.
