Antibiotic therapy for pan-drug-resistant infections [PDF]

open access: yesInfez Med, 2022
Antibiotic resistance occurs when microorganisms resist the drugs used against the infection caused by them and neutralize their effects over time using various mechanisms.

Next generation antibiotic combinations to combat pan-drug resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Antimicrobial resistance has emerged as one of the leading public health threats of the twenty-first century. Gram-negative pathogens have been a major contributor to the declining efficacy of antibiotics through both acquired resistance and tolerance ...

Programmatically selected multidrug-resistant strains drive the emergence of extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis in South Africa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
South Africa shows one of the highest global burdens of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) tuberculosis (TB). Since 2002, MDR-TB in South Africa has been treated by a standardized combination therapy, which until 2010 included

Molecular mechanisms of drug resistance in natural Leishmania populations vary with genetic background [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The evolution of drug-resistance in pathogens is a major global health threat. Elucidating the molecular basis of pathogen drug-resistance has been the focus of many studies but rarely is it known whether a drug-resistance mechanism identified is ...

Explaining risk factors for drug-resistant tuberculosis in England and Wales: contribution of primary and secondary drug resistance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Drug-resistant tuberculosis can be transmitted (primary) or develop during the course of treatment (secondary). We investigated risk factors for each type of resistance.

Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
BACKGROUND: With almost 9 million new cases each year, tuberculosis remains one of the most feared diseases on the planet. Led by the STOP-TB Partnership and WHO, recent efforts to combat the disease have made considerable progress in a number of ...

Drug resistance-conferring mutations in Mycobacterium tuberculosis from Madang, Papua New Guinea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
: BACKGROUND: Monitoring drug resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis is essential to curb the spread of tuberculosis (TB). Unfortunately, drug susceptibility testing is currently not available in Papua New Guinea (PNG) and that impairs TB control in ...

Characterizing the emergence and persistence of drug resistant mutations in HIV-1 subtype C infections using 454 ultra deep pyrosequencing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: The role of HIV-1 RNA in the emergence of resistance to antiretroviral therapies (ARTs) is well documented while less is known about the role of historical viruses stored in the proviral DNA. The primary focus of this work was to characterize

World Antimalarial Resistance Network (WARN) III: Molecular markers for drug resistant malaria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Molecular markers for drug resistant malaria represent public health tools of great but mostly unrealized potential value. A key reason for the failure of molecular resistance markers to live up to their potential is that data on the their prevalence is ...
