Risk Factors of Blood Culture Positivity and Mortality in Bloodstream Infections: A Population‐Based Study of Patients With B‐Cell Malignancies

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Bloodstream infections remain a major cause of mortality among cancer patients. Pathogen surveillance and risk stratification tools are key to improved management. This study describes trends in causative pathogens and explores risk factors for positive blood cultures (PBCs) and post‐infection mortality in cancer patients.

Multi‐year occupancy and habitat use in a threatened butterfly reintroduced onto a restored peatland

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Over half of insect species reintroductions are unsuccessful, frequently because of insufficient habitat resources and a knowledge‐gap regarding the target species habitat requirements. Multi‐season occupancy models, seldom used with invertebrates, offer the opportunity to disentangle the effects of habitat suitability and ...

Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) screening and isolation in the general medicine ward: a cost-effectiveness analysis

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2019
Background Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are a serious antimicrobial resistant threat in the healthcare setting. We assessed the cost-effectiveness of VRE screening and isolation for patients at high-risk for colonisation on a general medicine ...

Perioperative Prophylaxis in Pediatric Solid Organ Transplantation: A Baseline Stewardship Audit Using Routine Electronic Data

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Using routine electronic data from 164 pediatric transplants, we created reproducible stewardship measures of perioperative prophylaxis practice across transplant populations and protocol pathways. Starting prophylaxis was reliable, but continuation beyond intended stop targets—especially in abdominal transplantation—identified the clearest target for ...

Clinical Significance of Organ Preservation Fluid Cultures in Pediatric Abdominal Solid Organ Transplantation

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
In this pediatric abdominal solid organ transplant cohort, preservation fluid‐related infections were rare but occurred in infant liver transplant recipients whose preservation fluid cultures grew pathogenic organisms. These findings suggest that routine bacterial preservation fluid cultures may be most useful for identifying clinically significant ...

A Context‐Aware Decision Support Framework for Scientific Experiment Configuration

Software: Practice and Experience, Volume 56, Issue 9, Page 1100-1119, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Defining an experimental configuration is a complex decision problem for early‐stage researchers, who must map goals, constraints, and requirements onto datasets, algorithms, and parameter settings that directly affect experimental outcomes.

Assessing Vancomycin‐Formyl Peptide Conjugate Binding to the Surface of Resistant Staphylococcus aureus via Flow Cytometry

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 15, 14 August 2026.
A flow cytometry technique was developed to measure the binding of vancomycin‐formyl peptide conjugates to the surface of resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Binding results indicate that the labelling site of the vancomycin targeting element has a major effect on binding to the bacterial cell wall, which correlates with reduced antibiotic activity ...

Actinomycin Derivatives: Structural Diversification and Biological Activities

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 15, 14 August 2026.
Actinomycins are chromopeptide antibiotics exhibiting remarkable structural diversity and broad bioactivity. This review traces their development from naturally occurring D‐, X‐, A‐, G‐, Y‐, and Z‐type analogs to precursor‐directed, synthetic, and semisynthetic derivatives.

Vancomycin-resistant Enterococci in Intensive Care Hospital Settings

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1998
Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) have recently emerged as a nosocomial pathogen and present an increasing threat to the treatment of severely ill patients in intensive-care hospital settings. We outline results of a study of the epidemiology of VRE

Nutritional Strategies To Improve VRE Control

Transplantation and Cellular Therapy
The rise of Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) strains among cellular therapy recipients raises concerns due to increased morbidity, mortality, and hospitalization costs, particularly impacting transplanted patients with diminished survival expectations.
