Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the risk and prevalence of hospital-acquired bacterial infections in intensive care units during the first wave of COVID-19 by using advanced deep-sequencing techniques.
- Conducted in a hard-hit region in northern Italy, the research involved collecting and analyzing samples from patients in both regular wards and ICUs to identify specific bacterial pathogens.
- The findings highlighted the effectiveness of this novel sequencing approach in tracking bacterial transmission and understanding antimicrobial resistance during a time of increased patient load.
Article Synopsis
- * A study conducted at a pediatric clinic analyzed data from children hospitalized for iGAS infections in 2023, revealing clinical patterns and groundbreaking insights into the infections.
- * Between 2016 and 2023, the number of GAS infections remained relatively stable, but 2023 saw a significant increase in pediatric cases, with common symptoms including high fever, tachycardia, and vomiting; specific lab results were also noted.
is a facultative anaerobe Gram-positive bacillus, which is considered a zoonotic pathogen. causes erysipeloid, mainly in occupational groups such as veterinarians, slaughterhouse workers, farmers, and fishermen. Two cutaneous forms (localised and generalised) and a septicaemic form have been described.

Serratia marcescens represent the third most common pathogen in NICU outbreaks. Here we present an outbreak investigation performed using Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) analyses and the control measures implemented to limit the spread of S.
