Failure of ceftazidime/avibactam experimental therapy in the treatment of Klebsiella pneumoniae ST11 co-producing NDM-1 and OXA-48 carbapenemases infection.

Carbapenem-resistant organisms (CRO) represent a significant threat because of their widespread in hospital settings, difficult-to-treat, and association with high morbidity and mortality rates. Data on the efficacy of ceftazidime/avibactam (CAZ-AVI) among patients infected with CRO in Iran are lacking. Herein, we report a case of a 91-year-old man with infection caused by extensively drug-resistant ST11 co-harbouring bla and bla strain from seven isolates.

Antimicrobial Resistance in Hospitalized Patients with Community Acquired Urinary Tract Infection in Isfahan, Iran.

Background: Antibiotic resistance against uro-pathogens is a worldwide health concern. The aim of this study was to determine the causative bacteria and antibiotic susceptibility patterns among hospitalized patients with community acquired urinary tract infection (UTI).

Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed in 2016-2018 in Isfahan, Iran.

Methodology and Early Results of the First Surveillance Program on Prevention and Control of Antimicrobial Resistance in Isfahan, Iran: The IAS-I Study.

Background: Isfahan Antibiotic Resistance Surveillance System-1 has been instituted in Isfahan, Iran to construct a project for surveillance of clinically significant bacteria, and to help raise a logic regional stewardship program for prevention and control of disseminating-resistant organisms.

Methods: During March 2016 to March 2018, an antibiotic resistance surveillance system was designed and implemented by Isfahan Infectious Diseases and Tropical Medicine Research Center. The surveillance program was implemented in three general hospitals in Isfahan.

Prevalence of class 1 integron in isolated from animal sources in Iran: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Among the genetic elements, integrons may contribute to the widespread incidence and spreading of antibiotic resistance among isolates. Accordingly, this review aims to investigate the prevalence of class 1 integron in isolated from animal sources in Iran.

Methods: This systematic literature search was performed from January 1, 2000 to the end of May 1, 2019.

Correction to: Investigation of antimicrobial susceptibility, class I and II integrons among Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from hospitalized patients in Isfahan, Iran.

Following publication of the original article [1], an error was reported in the tables due to a typesetting mistake. Table 3 is presented as a duplicate of Table 2. In this Correction, the correct presentation of Table 3 is shown.
