Abstract Background Evaluating the prevalence of vancomycin resistance genes (van genes) in enterococcal isolates from food‐producing animals is an important public health issue because of the possibility of resistance genes spread to human. Objectives The present study aimed to determine the occurrence of vancomycin resistance genes among Enterococcus

New geographical records for tick‐borne pathogens in ticks collected from cattle in Benin and Togo
A total of 396 ticks were collected from cattle between 2019 and 2020, and divided in pools (two to six ticks per pool) for molecular screening. The present study highlights the presence of zoonotic agents in ticks collected from cattle in Benin and Togo.

Oral flora of domestic cats in Hong Kong: Identification of antibiotic‐resistant strains
Abstract Background As the clinical outcome of bite‐associated infection is related to the oral commensals, evaluating their composition and antibiotic susceptibility pattern can provide more information for the antibiotic treatment of wound infections and increase the awareness of the multidrug‐resistant bacteria in cat oral flora. Aims This study was

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis: Common and uncommon presentations
Summary Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is a multisystemic autoimmune small vessel vasculitis predominantly affecting the respiratory and renal systems. Other systems such as the central nervous system, orbital, cardiac and gastrointestinal systems may also be involved to a lesser degree.

Abstract Background and purpose An early understanding of stroke mechanism may improve treatment and outcome in patients presenting with large vessel occlusion stroke (LVOS) treated with mechanical thrombectomy (MT). We aimed to investigate whether spontaneous external carotid artery (ECA) embolism detection during MT is associated with stroke etiology

Antibacterial Siderophores of Pandoraea Pathogens and Their Impact on the Diseased Lung Microbiota
Genome mining of environmental and pathogenic Pandoraea species identified a conserved NRPS gene cluster and led to the discovery of novel siderophores, pandorabactins, which exert their antibacterial activity by depleting iron from competitors. Bioinformatic analysis of sputum from cystic fibrosis patients coupled with bioassays indicates that ...

The SIR model in a moving population: propagation of infection and herd immunity [PDF]
In a collection of particles performing independent random walks on $\mathbb Z^d$ we study the spread of an infection with SIR dynamics. Susceptible particles become infected when they meet an infected particle. Infected particles heal and are removed at rate $\nu$.
