Do We Need to Worry About Staphylococcus epidermidis ST0409KOC, a Cheese‐Isolated Strain With Bacteriocinogenic Properties?

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 70, Issue 1, January 2026.
Bacteriocinogenic Staphylococcus epidermidis ST0409KOC was isolated from cheese and characterized as bacteriocin‐producing with strong activity versus Listeria monocytogenes and other pathogens. S. epidermidis ST0409KOC can be considered a safe strain regarding its virulence genetic background, presenting only a single virulence gene of IS257 among the

Biofilm Formation in Clinical Acinetobacter baumannii Is Influenced by Isolate Source and Is Inversely Correlated With Antibiotic Resistance

BioMed Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Acinetobacter baumannii is a troublesome bacterium that is highly prevalent in hospital settings, particularly in intensive care units (ICUs). Biofilm is one of the main virulence factors that makes A. baumannii a successful pathogen, enabling it to survive the harshest environments.

Systemic Inflammatory Response Index Has a Value for the Early Diagnosis and Short‐Term Prognostic Assessment of Severe Pneumonia in the Elderly

Canadian Respiratory Journal, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This article probed the value of systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) in the early diagnosis and short‐term prognostic assessment of severe pneumonia (SPM) in the elderly. First, 266 elderly patients with pneumonia were retrospectively included and allocated into SPM and N‐SPM groups as per APACHE‐II scores.

Successful Treatment of Lactobacillus rhamnosus Endocarditis With Intravenous Daptomycin: A Case Report and Literature Review

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Lactobacilli are Gram‐positive, facultatively aerobic, rod‐shaped bacteria that are a normal part of the human microbiota and rarely cause infections in immunocompetent hosts. Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus rhamnosus are the most common human pathogens within this genus and are also frequently used in probiotics.
