Occurrence and spread of carbapenemase‐producing Enterobacterales (CPE) in the food chain in the EU/EFTA. Part 1: 2025 update

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract Carbapenemase‐producing Enterobacterales (CPE) have been reported in the food chain in 14 out of 30 EU/EFTA countries. Commonly reported genes are blaVIM‐1, blaOXA‐48 and blaOXA‐181, followed by blaNDM‐5 and blaIMI‐1. Escherichia coli, target of most of the studies, Enterobacter cloacae complex, Klebsiella pneumoniae complex and Salmonella ...

Third‐Generation Cephalosporin‐Resistant Uropathogenic Escherichia coli From Community‐ and Hospital‐Acquired Infections Show High Level of Antibiotic Resistance and Specific Virulence Traits

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Escherichia coli is a leading cause of both community‐acquired and nosocomial infections. In particular, E. coli is responsible for 90% of all uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs) and 65% of complicated UTIs. Among complicated UTIs, those caused by third‐generation cephalosporin (3GC)–resistant E.

The genotypic and phenotypic characteristics contributing to high virulence and antibiotics resistance in Escherichia coli O25-B2-ST131 in comparison to non- O25-B2-ST131

BMC Pediatrics, 2023
Background Escherichia coli serogroup O25b-sequence type 131 (E. coli O25-B2-ST131) is considered as multidrug-resistant and hypervirulent organism. There is lack of data about involvement of this pathogen in the children’s infection.

Lack of wastewater treatment in a small town drives the spread of ESBL‐producing Escherichia coli in irrigation waters

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 53, Issue 6, Page 1116-1126, November/December 2024.
ABSTRACT Antibiotic resistance (ABR) is a critical and growing global challenge, especially in low‐ and middle‐income countries. Ecuador has made great progress in connecting households to piped water supplies; however, the collection and treatment of domestic wastewater has lagged.

Examining key capitals contributing to students' science‐related career expectations and their relationship patterns: A machine learning approach

Journal of Research in Science Teaching, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 1975-2010, October 2024.
Abstract Through the lens of science capital, this research aims to detect the key factors and their main effects in identifying students with science‐related career expectations. A machine learning approach (i.e., random forest) was employed to analyze a dataset of 519,334 15‐year‐old students from the Programme for International Student Assessment ...
