Antimicrobial resistance poses a serious threat to global public health. The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the need to monitor the dissemination of antimicrobial resistance genes and understand the mechanisms driving this process. In this study, we analyzed changes to the oropharyngeal and fecal resistomes of patients with COVID-19 undergoing therapy in a hospital setting.

Article Synopsis
  • - Direct laser acceleration (DLA) of electrons in near-critical density (NCD) plasmas is showing promise for high-energy laser applications, particularly in Inertial Confinement Fusion research.
  • - Experiments at the PHELIX sub-PW laser revealed efficient and highly directed betatron radiation from DLA electrons, producing around (3.4 ± 0.4)·10 photons per keV per sr at 10 keV photon energy.
  • - The results align well with particle-in-cell simulations, indicating that using low-density pre-ionized foams could lead to innovative advancements in high energy density research.

The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, has significantly impacted global healthcare, underscoring the importance of exploring the virus's effects on infected individuals beyond treatments and vaccines. Notably, recent findings suggest that SARS-CoV-2 can infect the gut, thereby altering the gut microbiota. This study aimed to analyze the gut microbiota composition differences between COVID-19 patients experiencing mild and severe symptoms.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to analyze drug resistance genes in the gut microbiome of patients undergoing hospital treatment for COVID-19 and how these genes change with treatment.
  • It involved a retrospective analysis of SARS-CoV-2 positive patients, collecting fecal samples for sequencing, while excluding those with certain underlying health conditions.
  • Results showed that patients treated with antibiotics had significantly more antibiotic resistance genes compared to those who weren't, indicating that antibiotic use during severe COVID-19 may contribute to higher levels of resistance.
