Detection of NDM Variants (blaNDM-1, blaNDM-2, blaNDM-3) from Carbapenem-Resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae: First Report from Nepal

Infection and Drug Resistance, 2022
Increasing burden of carbapenem resistance among Enterobacterales is attributable to their ability to produce carbapenemase enzymes like metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL), Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC), and OXA-type. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of carbapenemases and MBL genes ((bla NDM-1, bla NDM-1 and bla NDM-3) among E.

Horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance genes on abiotic touch surfaces: implications for public health

, 2012
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is largely responsible for increasing incidence of antibiotic-resistant infections worldwide. Whilst studies have focussed on HGT in vivo, this work investigates whether the ability of pathogens to persist in the ...

Evolution for improved secretion and fitness may be the selective pressures leading to the emergence of two NDM alleles

, 2020
The New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM-1) mediates resistance to β-lactam antibiotics. NDM-1 was likely formed as the result of a gene fusion between sequences encoding the first six amino acids of cytoplasm-localised aminoglycosidase, AphA6, and a ...

Brain‐wide magnetic resonance imaging analysis of neurobehavioral comorbidities in temporal lobe epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective In temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), patients often present with neurobehavioral comorbidities encompassing affective and cognitive difficulties. Whereas the latter have been related to atypical connectivity of mesiotemporal and frontotemporal circuits, the brain basis of affective symptoms remains incompletely understood.

Combined radiofrequency and topical exosomes in atrophic vulvar lichen sclerosus: A case report

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Vulvar lichen sclerosus (VLS) is a chronic inflammatory dermatological‐gynecological condition. Conventional first‐line treatment comprises topical corticosteroids; however, many patients remain refractory. Energy‐based devices, including radiofrequency (RF), have shown promising results in VLS, with symptomatic and functional improvement ...
