Investigation of 222‐nm ultraviolet C irradiation bactericidal effect on the surgical field in a rabbit model

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
In a rabbit surgical field model seeded with polymicrobial flora, a single dose of 222‐nm UV‐C (500 mJ/cm2) markedly reduced bacterial colonies, achieving a bactericidal effect comparable to 254‐nm UV‐C (200 mJ/cm2), while no UV‐C irradiation showed heavy growth. Wound healing did not differ among groups. Microbiota profiling detected SSI‐relevant taxa

Photodynamic inactivation increases cell death rate on persistent Staphylococcus aureus

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Persistent bacteria have the ability to survive extended periods of antibiotic stress by entering a metabolically dormant state. This study investigated persistence formation in two S. aureus strains and evaluated the effects of PDI using curcumin. Post‐PDI time‐kill assays conducted after metabolic recovery showed a higher rate of bacterial death ...

Performance of the BioFire FilmArray Pneumonia Panel Plus Compared to Standard Microbiology in Lung Transplant Donor and Recipient Samples: A Prospective Cohort Study

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
A prospective study demonstrating that the BioFire Pneumonia Panel Plus shows substantial concordance with culture in donor samples and moderate concordance in recipient samples, supporting its potential role in guiding perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis in lung transplantation.

No Increased Risk of Infection Following a Protocol Change to Decrease Duration of Perioperative Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Liver Transplantation

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
There was no increased rate of surgical site infection or bacteremia in liver transplant recipients following a decrease in perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis duration, with a change from 2.4% to 2.8% in patients hospitalized prior to transplant and 7.5% to 2.9% in other patients.

Serious Bacterial Infections in Hospitalized Neonates in Eastern Ethiopia: Investigating the Emerging Pathogen Pantoea dispersa Compared With Klebsiella pneumoniae

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Serious bacterial infections (SBIs) are major contributors to neonatal morbidity and mortality in low‐income countries. We describe the aetiology and risk factors for neonatal bacteraemia and in‐hospital mortality in eastern Ethiopia, focusing on Pantoea dispersa, a rarely studied pathogen, and Klebsiella pneumoniae.
