Transmission dynamics of a linear vanA-plasmid during a nosocomial multiclonal outbreak of vancomycin-resistant enterococci in a non-endemic area, Japan

Scientific Reports, 2021
The spread of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) is a major threat in nosocomial settings. A large-scale multiclonal VRE outbreak has rarely been reported in Japan due to low VRE prevalence. We evaluated the transmission of vancomycin resistance in a

Disposable negative pressure wound therapy system enhances punch graft acceptance in equine distal limb wounds

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 10, Page e671-e675, October 2026.
Summary This case series describes the use of a disposable, canister‐free negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) system (PICO®) in combination with punch grafting for the treatment of distal limb wounds in three horses. Each horse presented with complex traumatic injuries resulting in delayed or inadequate healing of distal limb wounds.
