Biomass‐derived hydrochars as eco‐friendly adsorbents for wastewater treatment applications

Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract Emerging organic pollutants (EOPs), such as diethyl phthalate (DEP), bisphenol A (BPA), and methylene blue (MB), are only partially removed in conventional wastewater treatment plants. This study assesses hydrochars produced by hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) of spruce bark (SB), vine shoots (VSs), and wheat straw (WSs) for removing three ...

Medicare Part D and Hospital Admissions due to Antimicrobial Resistance

Health Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has been increasing rapidly in the United States despite government efforts to contain its spread. Both under‐utilization and overuse of prescribed antimicrobials contribute to rising resistance. The introduction of Medicare Part D in 2006 expanded prescription drug coverage for the elderly, including coverage ...

Potent monoclonal antibodies against multidrug‐resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
A novel immunization strategy using a low‐virulence, multidrug‐resistant strain yields synergistic monoclonal antibodies against hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae. These antibodies provide cross‐serotype protection through a dual‐mechanism of pathogen clearance and immunomodulation, offering a promising non‐antibiotic therapeutic for resistant ...

Characteristics of ciprofloxacin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae isolates recovered from wastewater of an Algerian hospital

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2016
Introduction: Hospital effluents are a source of environmental pollution by drugs, antibiotic-resistant bacteria, and resistance genes. Quinolones, particularly ciprofloxacin, are commonly detected in these effluents, contributing to the emergence of ...

Mortality after broad‐ versus narrow‐spectrum antibiotic treatment for patients with nursing and healthcare‐associated pneumonia: A nationwide retrospective cohort study

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Nursing and healthcare‐associated pneumonia (NHCAP) is defined as pneumonia occurring in individuals with frequent healthcare contact, such as residents of care facilities or patients with impaired activities of daily living. The effectiveness of broad‐spectrum antibiotics in treating NHCAP remains unclear.

Successful Use of Bimekizumab in Refractory Acute Generalised Exanthematous Pustulosis Triggered by Amoxicillin‐Clavulanate

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute generalised exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) is a rare, acute neutrophilic dermatosis most commonly triggered by drugs, which typically resolves within 2 weeks following withdrawal of the causative agent. Topical and systemic corticosteroids remain the standard treatment.

Genome‐wide screen reveals a universal role of ATP in ciprofloxacin tolerance among genetically distinct Escherichia coli persisters

mLife, EarlyView.
Abstract Bacterial persisters show tolerance to bactericidal antibiotics and play essential roles in chronic infections; however, the general mechanisms underlying persister formation and antibiotic tolerance remain insufficiently characterized. In this study, the Escherichia coli Keio library was used to identify genes involved in ciprofloxacin ...
