Surgical site infections and sepsis in gynecological surgery

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite advancements in infection control, surgical site infections (SSIs) and postoperative sepsis remain significant challenges in gynecological surgery, contributing to increased morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. In low‐income countries, circulatory failure due to septic shock leads to most deaths after surgery, with sepsis ...

HiFi based metagenomic assembly strategy provides accuracy near isolated genome resolution in MAG assembly

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Recovering high‐contiguity, circular bacterial genomes from complex microbiomes (e.g., gut) is challenged by limitations of short‐read and error‐prone long‐read sequencing. This study comprehensively compares PacBio High‐Fidelity (HiFi) sequencing‐based metagenome‐assembled genomes (MAGs) against Illumina MAGs, Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) MAGs ...

Antibiogram analysis and tracking of the virulence-related genes in Enterococcus faecalis isolates

مجله علمی دانشگاه علوم پزشکی کردستان, 2019
Background and Aim: Enterococcus species are opportunistic pathogens and their pathogenicity seems to be related to the presence of a number of pathogenicity genes. Since donkey’s milk is a new non-allergenic source of nutrition, this study was performed

Intestinal spirochaetes of the genus Brachyspira share a partially conserved 26 kilobase genomic region with Enterococcus faecalis and Escherichia coli [PDF]

, 2008
Anaerobic intestinal spirochaetes of the genus Brachyspira include both pathogenic and commensal species. The two best-studied members are the pathogenic species B. hyodysenteriae (the aetiological agent of swine dysentery) and B.

Applications of bioactive herbal extracts in dressing materials for skin wound repair: Ingredients, mechanisms and innovations

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract The skin, as the body's largest organ, plays essential roles in protection, immune regulation, and homeostasis. Skin trauma, especially chronic wounds such as diabetic ulcers, poses significant clinical challenges. Traditional treatments, while often effective, can be costly and pose risks.

Role of mprF1 and mprF2 in the Pathogenicity of Enterococcus faecalis

PLoS ONE, 2012
Enterococcus faecalis is one of the leading causes of nosocomial infections. Due to its innate and acquired resistance to most antibiotics, identification of new targets for antimicrobial treatment of E. faecalis is a high priority. The multiple peptide resistance factor MprF, which was first described in Staphylococcus aureus, modifies ...
