Article Synopsis
  • - The study assessed contamination levels of fresh produce by ESBLs-producing Enterobacterales and AmpC-producing Enterobacterales in Tebessa, Algeria, analyzing 132 samples (67 vegetables and 65 fruits).
  • - Results showed a 19.40% prevalence of resistant Enterobacterales in vegetables, while fruits tested negative; all isolates exhibited multidrug resistance with notable resistance to most β-lactams.
  • - Genetic analysis identified several uncommon ESBL gene variants in seven strains, with a specific gene showing dominance, highlighting significant contamination in vegetables and the emergence of new resistance genes in Algeria.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder, with a significant burden on global health. AD is characterized by a progressive cognitive decline and memory loss. Emerging research suggests a potential link between periodontitis, specifically the presence of oral bacteria such as (), and AD progression.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on the prevalence of carbapenemase production among multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacilli (CR-GNB) from 352 clinical samples in Tebessa hospital, Algeria, highlighting the growing challenge these bacteria pose to treatment.
  • Using various identification and testing methods, 85 isolates were identified, with Klebsiella pneumoniae being the most common, and all strains exhibited resistance to key antibiotics.
  • Molecular analysis revealed the presence of multiple carbapenemase and ESBL genes in the isolates, marking the first detection of the blaNDM-1 gene in Enterobacter cloacae in this region.
