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.

Acinetobacter baumannii poses a significant threat to public health due to the high rate of multidrug-resistant strains. However, information on the molecular characterization of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) bloodstream infections in children is scarce. This study aimed to describe the molecular characterization of carbapenem-resistant A.

Introduction: We describe a series of pediatric cases of bacteremia, all of them with a history of heart disease, use of central venous catheter and coinfections. A review of the published literature was carried out in order to enrich the available information.
Material And Methods: Pediatric observational retrospective study in which three cases of catheter-related bloodstream infection due to Chryseobacterium indologenes were reported in a period of two years in a tertiary care hospital.
Introduction: The current SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has caused feelings of anxiety, confusion, and panic among the world population. Due to these psychological changes resulting from the stress produced by the disease, we sought to investigate the psychological impact of the pandemic on the university student community.
Material And Methods: 1,283 students were surveyed, of which 1,149 students were selected.
