Molecular epidemiology of carbapenemase encoding genes in infections in children: a systematic review.

Background: complex is the leader pathogen for the World Health Organization's list due to the escalating prevalence of multidrug-resistant strains. Insights into the molecular characterization of carbapenemase genes in complex infections among children are scarce. To address this gap, we conducted a systematic review to describe the molecular epidemiology of the carbapenemase genes in complex infections in the pediatric population.

[Bloodstream infections with Candida glabrata in a neonatal intensive care unit that uses prophylaxis with fluconazole].

Background: Candida glabrata is an emerging pathogen with the ability to develop tolerance and resistance to azole antifungals, which creates uncertainty about the usefulness of antifungal prophylaxis in newborns.

Aims: The aim of this study was to describe the factors associated with C. glabrata infection in a NICU that uses prophylaxis with fluconazole.
