Cross‐Sectional Associations Between Gut Microbiota and Neuroimaging Changes in Post‐COVID‐19 Condition

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 5, October 2026.
In patients with post‐COVID‐19 condition, a significant shift in gut microbiota composition can be observed, marked by a decrease in butyrate‐producing taxa. Relevant taxa correlate with clinical symptoms, structural and functional brain changes, which suggests potential therapeutic targets and highlight the need for further investigation in their ...

Effect of Green‐Synthesized Silver Nanoparticles From Nepeta pogonosperma and Astrodaucus persicus on the Reduction of Bap Gene Expression in Strong Biofilm‐Producing Acinetobacter baumannii Clinical Isolates

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Green‐synthesized silver nanoparticles from Nepeta pogonosperma and Astrodaucus persicus significantly inhibit biofilm formation and downregulate bap gene expression in multidrug‐resistant clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii. This eco‐friendly approach offers a promising strategy to combat antimicrobial resistance.

Emergence of a Novel, Phenotypically Difficult‐to‐Detect Vancomycin‐Resistant Enterococcus faecium Clone (ST117/CT7799)

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
A newly emerged vanB‐VREfm clone (ST117/CT7799) causes an ongoing outbreak in southeastern Austria. The cluster is highly homogenous, even for isolates sampled months apart. Resistance is easily missed via disk diffusion, gradient tests, and microdilution. VITEK 2 testing reliably detects vancomycin‐resistance.

Genomic and Phenotypic Characterization of Two Novel Enterobacter Phages With EDTA‐Enhanced Antibiofilm Activity

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Two novel lytic Enterobacter phages, HHH and RZH, displayed targeted antibiofilm activity against MDR Enterobacter cloacae complex biofilms when combined with EDTA. Activity was strongest within a narrow low‐millimolar EDTA window, reducing biofilm biomass and viable burden, while higher EDTA concentrations shifted the interaction towards antagonism ...

Factors related to hospital stay among patients with nosocomial infection acquired in the intensive care unit

, 2003
Objectives: To assess the influence of nosocomial infection on length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU) and to determine the relative effect of other factors on extra length of hospitalization associated with nosocomial infection.

Intrinsic Disorder as a New Frontier in Antimicrobial Resistance and Bacterial Fitness

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
The works examines the link between intrinsic disorder in bacterial protein structure, and bacterial function, and antimicrobial resistance. It highlights how flexible, disordered proteins support secretion, stress responses, desiccation protection, and virulence, while also suggesting that these adaptable regions may provide novel targets for ...
