This study analyzed outcomes of an early Mollicute (Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma spp.) screening protocol using BAL PCR with preemptive treatment and ammonia monitoring in lung transplant recipients. This appears to be a practical and reasonably effective approach for preventing early Mollicute infection and hyperammonemia syndrome.

In Belize, a 7‐year nationwide study reveals a sharp rise in antimicrobial resistance in surgical infections. ESBL‐producing bacteria more than doubled to > 45%, with critical treatment gaps and geographic hotspots identified. Sentinel pan‐drug‐resistant cases and a correlation between antibiotic use and resistance underscore the urgent need for ...
