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.

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.

Intra- and Extra-Hospital Dissemination of IMP-22-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in Northern Portugal: The Breach of the Hospital Frontier Toward the Community

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The emergence of infections (and colonization) with Enterobacteriaceae-producing carbapenemases is a threatening public health problem. In the last decades, we watched an isolated case becoming a brutal outbreak, a sporadic description becoming an ...

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.
