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.

Dopamine‐Induced Seizure in a Heart Failure Patient: A Case Report and Review of Neurotoxic Implications

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In heart failure patients, dopamine therapy, particularly at higher doses, may induce seizures due to its impact on cerebral blood flow and exacerbation of underlying hypoxemia and electrolyte imbalances. Close monitoring and cautious use of dopamine, with consideration of alternative inotropic agents like dobutamine, are essential to mitigate

Phenotypic and Genotypic Study of Antibiotic Resistance blaPER‐1, blaVEB, and blaSHV‐1 Genes in Clinical Isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a non‐fermentative, opportunistic Gram‐negative bacterium that causes 10%–15% of nosocomial and burn wound infections worldwide. This bacterium is resistant to various antibiotics through multiple mechanisms, including acquisition of resistance genes.
