Eighty-one Enterobacter cloacae isolates collected from 20 hospitals in Anhui Province, China, from January to August 2005 were screened for plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinants by polymerase chain reaction and sequencing. qnrA1, qnrB4, qnrS1, and aac(6')-Ib-cr were present in 6.2% (5/81), 6.2% (5/81), 8.6% (7/81), and 3.7% (3/81) of those isolates, respectively.

Colistin resistance threatens global health as it compromises the effectiveness of a last-resort antibiotic. We present the complete genome sequence of ST462, which carries the gene, isolated from a pediatric diarrhea case in southern Vietnam. The 5,049,362 bp genome contains 24 resistance genes distributed across 107 contigs.

Ceftriaxone-resistant Enterobacterales remain a public health threat; contemporary data investigating their molecular epidemiology are limited. Five hundred consecutive ceftriaxone-resistant (MIC ≥ 4 µg/mL) Enterobacterales bloodstream isolates were collected between 2018 and 2022 from three Maryland hospitals. Broth microdilution confirmed antibiotic susceptibilities.

Objective: This study aimed to analyze the antimicrobial resistance profiles, clinical characteristics and risk factors of bacteremia caused by complex (ECC) strains.
Methods: We retrospectively collected clinical data from patients diagnosed with ECC bacteremia between 2013 and 2022 in a tertiary hospital in Jiangsu. Subgroup analyses were performed based on multidrug resistance (MDR), nosocomial acquisition, polymicrobial bacteremia, and mortality.

: A positive intraoperative bile culture (bacterobilia) is considered to be a risk factor for increased morbidity after pancreatoduodenectomy. The aim of our study was to describe the frequency of bacterobilia with a special emphasis on antibiotic resistance and to analyze the association of these findings with postoperative complications, in particular with postoperative pancreatic fistula. : From a prospective database, patients with available intraoperative bile cultures (n = 95) were selected and analyzed.
