ABSTRACT Timely management of exacerbations and optimisation of ongoing care are vital in preventing disease progression and preserving outcomes and quality of life in patients with bronchiectasis. This retrospective case review underscores the importance of the new ERS guidelines in supporting multidisciplinary teams to provide optimal care for their ...

Acinetobacter baumannii, a Gram-negative bacterium, is an important nosocomial pathogen. Colistin-resistant A. baumannii is becoming a new concern, since colistin is one of the last-line antibiotics for infections by carbapenem-resistant A.

Colistin-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical strains with defective biofilm formation
Aim: Colistin is the only effective antibiotic in some cases of resistance to all tested antibiotics, even carbapenem. On the other hand, biofilm formation is one of the antibiotic resistance mechanisms in this bacterium.

Green‐synthesized silver nanoparticles from Nepeta pogonosperma and Astrodaucus persicus significantly inhibit biofilm formation and downregulate bap gene expression in multidrug‐resistant clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii. This eco‐friendly approach offers a promising strategy to combat antimicrobial resistance.
