Real‐Time Assessment of H. pylori Infection to Guide Molecular Antibiotic Resistance Testing: A Combined Endoscopy‐Gastric Juice Analysis Approach

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 465-471, February 2025.
Endoscopy combined with intraprocedural gastric juice analysis is highly accurate for Helicobacter pylori detection and, in case of a positive finding, can selectively direct to antibiotic susceptibility testing. Genotypic susceptibility testing using gastric aspirate accurately detects H. pylori resistance to clarithromycin and levofloxacin, with test

Outsmarting Nightmare: Drug Resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Acinetobacter baumannii is a critical nosocomial pathogen recognized by the WHO as a top‐priority threat due to its extensive drug resistance, particularly in carbapenem‐resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) strains. According to recent CDC reports, CRAB is one of the most urgent causes of hospital‐acquired infections, driving longer hospital stays,

Characterization of fosfomycin heteroresistance among multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli isolates from hospitalized patients in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2020
Objectives: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli have become a major medical concern. Old antibiotics such as fosfomycin have become an alternative therapeutic option due to their effectiveness and, as a result ...

Revisiting the Metallo‐β‐Lactamase–Mediated Antibiotic Resistance: Exploring Novel Mechanisms and Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesInternational Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
β‐Lactam resistance is one of the major health concerns today, primarily due to enzymes called β‐lactamases. Metallo‐β‐lactamases (MβLs) can cleave a wide range of β‐lactam antibiotics, including carbapenems. These enzymes require zinc (Zn) ions to function and can be inhibited by conventional β‐lactamase inhibitors.

Study of the Equine Methicillin‐Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Bacterium With a High Ability to Form Biofilms and Changes in Its Properties Under the Influence of Farnesol

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine International, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
In developed countries, given the prevalence of methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), therapeutic options for treating such infections have become limited. In developing countries and Russia, little is known about resistance to antibiotics for St. aureus in veterinary medicine.
