Programming Gut Microbiome Function Through Cross‐Feeding: From Ecological Mechanisms to Live Biotherapeutics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract presents gut microbial cross‐feeding through a Mechanism–Technology–Application framework. It summarizes major resource‐transfer modes, the experimental and computational tools used to establish causality, and potential interventions involving dietary substrates, live biotherapeutic products, and engineered microbes.

Vancomycin and high-level aminoglycoside resistance in Enterococcus species

Microbiology Research, 2016
The aim of the study was to investigate vancomycin and high-level aminoglycoside resistance (HLAR) in Enterococcus species by phenotypic and genotypic methods. A hundred Enterococcus strains were included in the study.

Vancomycin-resistant enterococci: eradication using vancomycin? [PDF]

Critical Care, 2014
Patient-to-patient transmission enables vancomycin- resistant enterococci (VRE) outbreaks. Outbreak management is expensive and time consuming, and therefore the possibility of VRE eradication is desirable. Since vancomycin is scarcely absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract, treatment with vancomycin per os may result in very high gastrointestinal ...

Interspecies Biofilm Dynamics Among Staphylococci: Inflammatory Contributions to Chronic Rhinosinusitis

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Staphylococcus species are frequently isolated from the sinonasal niche of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) patients. While Staphylococcus aureus is often associated with recalcitrant CRS, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus lugdunensis are largely deemed commensal.

Staphylococcus resistant to vancomycin emerges [PDF]

BMJ, 1999
Researchers have reported the first three cases in the United States of infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus bacteria resistant to vancomycin, an antibiotic often reserved to fight these infections when no other agent is effective. To date, a total of four strains of S aureus intermediately resistant to vancomycin have been documented worldwide,

Emergence of Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2001
Vancomycin and ampicillin resistance in clinical Enterococcus faecium strains has developed in the past decade. Failure to adhere to strict infection control to prevent the spread of these pathogens has been well established. New data implicate the use of specific classes of antimicrobial agents in the spread of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE ...

Arthroscopically Assisted Dynamic Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Graft Tensioning With Adaptive Length Using Double‐Bundle Technique

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract This technical note describes a practical, anatomy‐based medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction technique emphasizing individualized, dynamic graft tensioning and independent adjustment of patellar graft arms. By prioritizing femoral fixation first, guided by precise, dynamic anatomical landmarks and arthroscopic verification, the graft

Does vancomycin resistance increase mortality in Enterococcus faecium bacteraemia after orthotopic liver transplantation? A retrospective study

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2020
Background The relevance of vancomycin resistance in enterococcal blood stream infections (BSI) is still controversial. Aim of this study was to outline the effect of vancomycin resistance of Enterococcus faecium on the outcome of patients with BSI after

Concurrent High Tibial Osteotomy, Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction, and Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Repair

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Medial meniscus posterior root tears and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries disrupt knee biomechanics and accelerate joint degeneration, particularly in the presence of varus malalignment. This technical note describes a combined surgical approach that integrates medial meniscus posterior root repair, ACL reconstruction, and high tibial

Oral vancomycin solution is superior to capsule in inducing clinical biomarker and endoscopic remission in children with atypical ulcerative colitis

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Atypical colitis (presenting reverse gradient colitis, backwash ileitis or rectal sparing) is associated with primary sclerosing cholangitis–ulcerative colitis (PSC). Oral vancomycin has been used to manage paediatric atypical colitis with/without confirmed PSC. Different preparations had shown different efficacy.
