Impact of Advanced Age on Posttransplant Infections and Outcomes in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients: A Multicenter Cohort Study

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Advanced age (≥60 years) was independently associated with higher mortality in solid organ transplant recipients, despite similar infection incidence. Even a single infection episode significantly increased mortality risk, underscoring the need for close clinical monitoring in elderly patients.

Predictive Ability of Sonographic Characteristics Alone to Diagnose Tuberculous Pleural Effusions in a Resource‐Limited Setting: A Cross‐Sectional Pilot Study in Zambia

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Tuberculous pleural effusion (TPE), the second most common form of extra‐pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), remains difficult to diagnose due to low‐yield, invasive and often unavailable diagnostics in resource‐limited settings. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of sonographic characteristics alone to predict TB ...

Altered Pharmacokinetics and Delayed Sputum Conversion in Tuberculosis Patients Co‐Infected With HIV

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background HIV co‐infection affects host responses and pharmacokinetics (PK) of tuberculosis (TB) treatment. This study assessed the PK of first‐line anti‐TB drugs and clinical outcomes in patients with and without HIV co‐infection. Methods In this prospective observational study, 61 adults with sputum‐positive pulmonary TB, either confirmed ...

Vaccine Targets and Antimicrobial Resistance of Streptococcus agalactiae Recovered From Pregnant Women in Brazil

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives The available measure to prevent Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Streptococcus, GBS) neonatal infection is intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis (IAP), but it is threatened by bacterial resistance. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate antimicrobial resistance and bacterial targets of vaccines at the most advanced stage of ...

Whole Genome Characterization of Klebsiella Strains in European Hedgehogs and Human Nosocomial Settings Identified Shared Sequence Types, Antimicrobial Resistance Genes and Plasmids

Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Klebsiella pneumoniae is a pathogen associated with healthcare‐acquired infections and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) to beta‐lactams and carbapenems. Although wild animals are not typically exposed to antibiotics, they can harbour resistant strains. The European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) is increasingly found in urban areas,
