Identification of Potential Therapeutic Agents for Primary Amebic Meningoencephalitis Using Text Mining and Bioinformatics Analyses

Analytical Cellular Pathology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Naegleria fowleri, the brain‐eating ameba, causes primary amebic meningoencephalitis (PAM), a fatal infectious disease that affects the central nervous system (CNS). We aimed to evaluate the functions and potential drugs targeting PAM using text mining and bioinformatics analyses.

An Investigation of Colistin Heteroresistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates in Iran

BioMed Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background According to the World Health Organization 2024 bacterial priority pathogens list, carbapenem‐resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) were listed among the critical priority pathogens. Heteroresistance (i.e., a bacterial isolate that appears susceptible but harbors resistant subpopulations) represents a challenge in traditional laboratory testing ...

Clinical Epidemiological Analysis of the Genotypic Spectrum and Mortality Risk in Carbapenem‐Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) Infections

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Carbapenem‐resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) has become a global public health threat, with significantly increased morbidity and mortality among high‐risk inpatients. High‐risk genotypes of CRKP, primarily including K. pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC), oxacillinase‐48–like (OXA‐48–like), New Delhi metallo‐β‐lactamase (NDM), imipenemase ...
