Antibiotics (Basel)
November 2023
In the context of the global spread of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), the issue of evaluating and optimizing the use of antibacterial drugs becomes especially relevant. The coronavirus pandemic has provided a unique opportunity to study the dynamics of the consumption of antibacterial agents and their impact on public health. The rational use of antibiotics is a key aspect of the fight against antimicrobial resistance, which makes this study particularly important.

- Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing global issue impacting the treatment of pneumonia, and a bibliometric analysis was conducted on related research from 2013 to 2023, based on 152 studies.
- Collaborative research efforts were common among authors, with the USA and China leading contributions, while twelve key journals highlighted, notably the "Medicine" journal.
- The analysis not only indicates an increasing awareness of AMR in pneumonia but also emphasizes the need for targeted future research to address this critical public health challenge.
This cross-sectional study investigated the microbial landscape and antibiotic-resistance patterns in patients with bacterial pneumonia, with a focus on the impact of COVID-19. Sputum samples from individuals with bacterial pneumonia, including coronavirus disease 2019-positive polymerase chain reaction (COVID-19-PCR+), COVID-19-PCR- and non-COVID-19 patients, were analyzed. Surprisingly, the classic etiological factor of bacterial pneumonia, , was rarely isolated from the sputum samples.

However, they are mainly limited by determining the hemoglobin content, iron concentration and erythrocyte morphology, which makes it impossible to differentiate iron deficiency anemia from other hypochromic anemia forms. The study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic value of hepcidin as a ferrokinetics marker under the development of anemia during pregnancy.
