We report here a case of meningitis caused by Salmonella virchow in a woman without signs or history of immunosuppression. Salmonella meningitis is a rare complication of human salmonellosis. The patient was successfully treated with ciprofloxacin. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of confirmed meningitis in an adult caused by this serotype.

This study aimed to explore the interactions among genetic determinants influencing ciprofloxacin resistance in . Treatment with PAβN, an efflux pump inhibitor, resulted in a 4-32-fold reduction in the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) across all 18 ciprofloxacin-resistant isolates. Notably, isolates without point mutations reverted from resistance to sensitivity.

Introduction: Non-typhoidal (NTS) serovars are the leading global cause of gastroenteritis and have established reservoirs in food animals.
Gap Statement: Due to a lack of surveillance, there is limited information on the distribution of NTS serovars in India.
Aim: Here, we investigated the epidemiology, sequence types, serovar distribution, phylogenetic relatedness, and antimicrobial resistance patterns of NTS in humans and animals across a large geographic area in Northern India.

Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed 53 multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains from 1232 poultry meat samples in South Korea using whole-genome sequencing due to a lack of genetic data in this area.
- Five serotypes were identified, with Infantis being the most common, and various sequence types (STs) and core genome sequence types (cgSTs) also distinguished, indicating genetic diversity among the strains.
- The analysis revealed 28 antimicrobial resistance genes, 10 plasmid replicons, and numerous virulence genes, highlighting distinct genetic profiles among the major MDR serotypes—Infantis, Enteritidis, and Virchow—for improved epidemiological surveillance.
