A review on bacterial resistance to carbapenems: epidemiology, detection and treatment options
Carbapenems are a class of antimicrobial agents reserved for infections caused by multidrug-resistant microorganisms. The emergence of carbapenem resistance has become a serious public health threat.

Attributable deaths and disability-adjusted life-years caused by infections with antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the EU and the European Economic Area in 2015: a population-level modelling analysis [PDF]
Background: Infections due to antibiotic-resistant bacteria are threatening modern health care. However, estimating their incidence, complications, and attributable mortality is challenging.

Hospital Acquired Infections by Carbapenem Resistant Enterobacteriacea [PDF]
CRE) infections have become an increasing concern for healthcare services worldwide. Community and hospital-acquired infections caused by these bacteria have been associated with significant morbidity and mortality with limited treatment options. Rapid and accurate detection of carbapenem resistance in these bacteria is important for infection control.

Healthcare-Associated Infections: Enterobacteriaceae Bloodstream Infections in the ICU Settings [PDF]
Background: Bloodstream infections (BSIs) are one of the most frequently observed hospital-acquired infections (HAIs). Objectives: We aimed to describe the epidemiology and drug resistance of hospital-acquired Enterobacteriaceae BSIs and to check for any correlation with the type of hospital care.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
