Detecting Antibiotic Resistance in Strains of Selected Gram‐Negative Bacterial Species Using Raman Spectroscopy

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Raman spectroscopy successfully identified antibiotic‐resistant Gram‐negative strains. Resistant strains of four bacterial species were discriminated from sensitive ones with 99.1% accuracy using PLS regression. The method allows for rapid, label‐free detection of antibiotic resistance.

One day wonder: Fast resolution of macular edema following intravitreal ranibizumab in retinal venous occlusions

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013
Macular edema is a significant cause of vision loss in patients with central retinal vein occlusions and branch retinal vein occlusions. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) appears to be a key factor in the pathogenesis of this disease.

A Selective Medium for Screening Ceftazidime/Avibactam Resistance in Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacterales

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Ceftazidime/avibactam (CZA) is an alternative antibiotic used for the treatment of infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE). However, the CZA-resistant CRE strains have been detected worldwide.

Juvenile Gangrenous Vasculitis of the Scrotum or Scrotum Lipschütz Ulcers

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lipschütz genital ulcers are traditionally described in adolescent females and often linked to acute viral infections. Their male counterpart remains poorly characterised. We report a 59‐year‐old man with sudden onset of unilateral necrotic ulcers on the scrotum and inguinal region following a brief febrile episode and mild pharyngitis ...

Absorption Kinetics of Subcutaneously Administered Ceftazidime in Hypoperfused Guinea Pigs

Current Therapeutic Research, 2015
Background: Pneumonia is the most common cause of death in patients with severe motor and intellectual disabilities (SMID), and intravenous ceftazidime (CAZ) is a widely used treatment for such infections.

Interactions between Avibactam and Ceftazidime-Hydrolyzing Class D β-Lactamases

Biomolecules, 2020
Class D β-lactamases exhibit very heterogeneous hydrolysis activity spectra against the various types of clinically useful β-lactams. Similarly, and according to the available data, their sensitivities to inactivation by avibactam can vary by a

Isolation of carbapenem‐resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other Gram‐negative ESKAPE organisms from samples of raw‐meat diets for dogs in the UK

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gram‐negative ESKAPE organisms are an emerging threat in veterinary medicine that also have zoonotic potential. However, little is known about the prevalence and risks of these organisms in pet food. We present the incidental finding of gram‐negative ESKAPE organisms within samples of raw meat diets for dogs in the United Kingdom ...

Synergistic mode of action of a ceftazidime-hexa-arginine conjugate with resistance-overcoming properties

Microbiology Spectrum
We previously described that a non-toxic ceftazidime-hexa-arginine conjugate (CTZ-R6) surpassed the antibacterial potency of ceftazidime (CTZ) against multi-resistant bacteria by up to 1,000-fold and effectively reduced the bacterial load in murine ...

Clinical Features and Outcomes of Chronic Otitis Media Complications: A 20‐Year Retrospective Study at a Tertiary Hospital

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Chronic otitis media (COM) is a major public health concern, particularly in developing countries. Although complications have decreased with modern antibiotics, they still cause significant morbidity and mortality. This study analyzed the clinical features, bacteriological profiles, and treatment outcomes of COM complications at a ...

Resistome Analysis of Klebsiella pneumoniae Complex from Residential Aged Care Facilities Demonstrates Intra-facility Clonal Spread of Multidrug-Resistant Isolates

Microorganisms
Antimicrobial-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the predominant pathogens in healthcare settings. However, the prevalence and resistome of this organism within residential aged care facilities (RACFs), which are potential hotspots for ...
