Article Synopsis
- Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a serious condition that can range from mild to severe, with complications like infections and organ failure becoming more common due to the increased presence of multi-drug-resistant organisms linked to improper antibiotic use.
- * The study aims to explore the experiences of patients with suspected infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN), focusing on identifying the prevalence of multi-drug-resistant organisms (MDROs) and understanding their antibiotic resistance.
- * Data was collected from 130 patients at a tertiary hospital in India, revealing that a majority had significant pancreatic necrosis, with high rates of organ failure and infections, particularly in the respiratory tract, and showing specific microbial resistance patterns.
Aim: The aim of the study was to assess and evaluate the antimicrobial effectiveness of chitosan nanoparticles (CSNPs) with calcium hydroxide in the elimination of .
Materials And Methods: Using the broth microdilution method, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of calcium hydroxide and CSNPs were measured. The antibiofilm effect of calcium hydroxide and CSNPs against biofilm was qualitatively analyzed using a crystal violet assay.

Purpose: The identification of anaerobes, Mycobacterium and Nocardia species, and moulds by MALDI-TOF-MS remains a challenge. This study aimed to evaluate the performance of MALDI-TOF in the identification of these organisms.
Methods: A total of 382 strains, comprising 128 (33.
Background/aims: This study delved into cirrhosis-related infections to unveil their epidemiology, risk factors, and implications for antimicrobial decisions.
Methods: We analyzed acutely decompensated cirrhosis patients (n = 971) from North India between 2013-2023 at a tertiary center. Microbiological and clinical features based on infection sites (EASL criteria) and patient outcomes were assessed.

Brain abscess is a serious clinical condition caused by a localized collection of pus within the brain tissue. This typically occurs as a result of an infection that originates from a nearby area, such as an ear, sinus, or dental infection, or an infection in the bloodstream. and species are the most common organisms implicated in brain abscesses.
