Trends in Causative Organisms and Antimicrobial Resistance in Late-onset Neonatal Sepsis.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the antibiotic resistance of microorganisms isolated in cases of culture-positive nosocomial late-onset neonatal sepsis in the neonatal intensive care unit. Infants admitted to our neonatal intensive care unit between October 2015 and June 2022 were retrospectively screened. A total of 458 different cultures from 386 sepsis incidents in 250 infants were analyzed.

Single-Port Multiport Robot-Assisted Partial Nephrectomy: A Meta-Analysis.

Several centers have reported their experience with single-port robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (SP-RAPN); however, it is uncertain if utilization of this platform represents an improvement in outcomes compared to multiport robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (MP-RAPN). To evaluate this, we performed a meta-analysis to compare the perioperative, oncological, and functional outcomes between SP-RAPN and MP-RAPN. For relevant articles, three electronic databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, were searched from their inception until January 1, 2023.
