Concomitant endocarditis and spondylodiscitis due to coagulase-negative Staphylococci and a review of the literature

IDCases, 2021
Background: Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are part of the normal skin flora. Although CoNS are generally considered as low pathogenic microorganisms, they can cause serious infections, particularly in the context of foreign body material.

Enhanced Infection Resistance and Regenerative Healing of Titanium Implants via Peptide‐Loaded Biodegradable Coatings

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study presents a new biodegradable coating for titanium implants using a natural antimicrobial peptide, caerin 1.9. Applied via solvent casting, the coating offers sustained antibacterial protection and promotes healing. Tested on 3D‐printed porous titanium scaffolds, it effectively prevented infection—including against resistant bacteria—while ...

Impact of Prophylactic Cefepime on Surgical Site Infection and Severe Morbidity in Patients Who Underwent Pancreaticoduodenectomy With Preoperative Biliary Drainage

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although prophylactic broad‐spectrum antibiotics can reduce postoperative complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), the optimal regimen remains uncertain. This study evaluated the impact of prophylactic cefepime (CFPM) on surgical site infection (SSI) and severe morbidity after PD with preoperative biliary drainage.

The Synergism Effect Of Cefepime And Vancomycin Against Coagulse Positive And Negative Methiciline Resistant Staphylococci [PDF]

پیاورد سلامت, 2012
Background and Aim: Although vancomycine is used for the treatment of methicillin resistant Staphylococci, but vancomycine alone might not be effective for the treatment of methicillin resistant Staphylococci in compromised host.

Coagulase-negative staphylococci release a purine analog that inhibits Staphylococcus aureus virulence

Nature Communications, 2021
Coagulase-negative staphylococci and Staphylococcus aureus colonize similar niches in mammals. Here, Chin et al. show that a coagulase-negative staphylococcus secretes 6-thioguanine, a purine analog that suppresses S.

Quorum-sensing control of sepsis in the coagulase-negative staphylococcal species Staphylococcus haemolyticus

Cell Reports
Summary: Quorum sensing is often proposed as a target for antivirulence drug development against bacterial pathogens. Coagulase-negative staphylococci are leading causes of nosocomial blood infections and associated mortality.
