The Role of Epidemic Resistance Plasmids and International High-Risk Clones in the Spread of Multidrug-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae

open access: yesClinical Microbiology Reviews, 2015
SUMMARY Escherichia coli sequence type 131 (ST131) and Klebsiella pneumoniae ST258 emerged in the 2000s as important human pathogens, have spread extensively throughout the world, and are responsible for the rapid increase in antimicrobial resistance ...

Mobile fosfomycin resistance genes in Enterobacteriaceae—An increasing threat

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, 2020
Antimicrobial resistance is one of the major threats to the health and welfare of both humans and animals. The shortage of new antimicrobial agents has led to the re‐evaluation of old antibiotics such as fosfomycin as a potential regimen for treating ...

Modified Carbapenem Inactivation Method for Phenotypic Detection of Carbapenemase Production among Enterobacteriaceae

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 2017
The ability of clinical microbiology laboratories to reliably detect carbapenemase-producing carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CP-CRE) is an important element of the effort to prevent and contain the spread of these pathogens and an integral part ...

Gut commensal microbiota and decreased risk for Enterobacteriaceae bacteriuria and urinary tract infection

open access: yesGut microbes, 2020
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common complication in kidney transplant recipients and can lead to significant morbidity and mortality. Recent evidence supports a role for the gut as a source for UTIs but little is known about the relationship ...

Multidrug-Resistant and Extensively Drug-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae: Prevalence, Treatments, and Outcomes – A Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesInfection and Drug Resistance, 2020
Background Drug-resistant gram-negative bacteria (GNB) are a global public health threat, especially in intensive care units (ICU). This study explored the prevalence of drug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infections in an ICU in Saudi Arabia.

Association of 30-Day Mortality With Oral Step-Down vs Continued Intravenous Therapy in Patients Hospitalized With Enterobacteriaceae Bacteremia

open access: yesJAMA Internal Medicine, 2019
Importance Conversion to oral therapy for Enterobacteriaceae bacteremia has the potential to improve the quality of life of patients by improving mobility, eliminating catheter-associated discomfort, decreasing the risk for noninfectious and infectious ...

Combination of modified carbapenem inactivation method (mCIM) and EDTA-CIM (eCIM) for phenotypic detection of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2020
Background Carbapenemase-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) cause many serious infections resulting in increasing treatment cost, prolonged hospitalization, and mortality rate.

Dietary L-serine confers a competitive fitness advantage to Enterobacteriaceae in the inflamed gut

open access: yesNature Microbiology, 2019
Metabolic reprogramming is associated with the adaptation of host cells to the disease environment, such as inflammation and cancer. However, little is known about microbial metabolic reprogramming or the role it plays in regulating the fitness of ...
