Colistin Resistance Mechanism and Management Strategies of Colistin-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Infections

Pathogens
The emergence of antibiotic-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) is a pressing threat in clinical settings. Colistin is currently a widely used treatment for multidrug-resistant A. baumannii, serving as the last line of defense. However, reports of colistin-resistant strains of A.

Genomic Insights Into Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Acquired Azithromycin Resistance Genes in Salmonella Strains Worldwide

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Azithromycin has been used for clinical invasive infections caused by fluoroquinolone‐ and third‐generation cephalosporin‐resistant Salmonella, and mass drug administration with azithromycin has been used to reduce under‐5 mortality in children in some countries.

Expression of transcriptional regulator mgrB is enhanced in colistin-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae: A report from India

Journal of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases
Background: Colistin is regarded as the final option for treating Gram-negative bacteria that are resistant to several drugs. A common resistance mechanism for colistin in Klebsiella pneumoniae is mgrB gene inactivation.

Polymersome‐Enabled Multimodal Delivery of Tobramycin and Doripenem for Targeted Eradication of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilms in Chronic Rhinosinusitis

Small, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of diffusion‐based versus pH‐triggered drug release within a bacterial biofilm. In diffusion‐based systems, drug cargo is gradually released independent of local pH, resulting in rapid burst release and reduced sustained concentrations.

Printing to Fight Antimicrobial Resistance Through Nano/Microstructured Platforms

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing enables the rational design of structured antimicrobial platforms across multiple length scales, from nanofibrous scaffolds and droplet microreactors to 3D and 4D printed constructs. By engineering confinement, interfacial chemistry, and stimuli‐responsive release, these systems exert localized action through complementary ...

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 ...
