Fecal carriage of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli in South American camelids and biosecurity practices among farms in northern Italy.

South American camelids (SACs), particularly llamas (Lama glama) and alpacas (Vicugna pacos) are gaining popularity in Europe. Initially valued for their fiber and land management capabilities, these animals are now also kept for animal therapy, outdoor activities, and as companion animals. Despite their close interactions with humans and other animals, there is limited research on the transmission of microbes or antimicrobial resistance genes from SACs.

Br J Clin Pharmacol
January 2025
Department of Medical Microbiology, Haaglanden Medisch Centrum, The Hague, The Netherlands.
Aims: The beta-lactam antibiotic temocillin is increasingly used to treat extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL-producing) strains; however, its protein binding is complex. This study aims to predict unbound temocillin concentrations in various participant groups to determine its impact on the probability of target attainment (PTA) and to improve dosing recommendations.
Methods: The plasma pharmacokinetics were analysed using non-linear mixed-effects modelling.
A rapid literature review of the impact of penicillin allergy on antibiotic resistance.
JAC Antimicrob Resist
February 2025
Department of Microbiology, Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, Leeds, UK.
Background: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is caused by the use and misuse of antibiotics. AMR is a global health concern, to which penicillin allergy (penA) labels appear to contribute. Patients who have penA labels are treated with non-penicillin antibiotics and receive more antibiotics when compared with patients without penA.

Department of Medical Microbiology, School of Biomedical and Laboratory Sciences, College of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Gondar, Gondar, Ethiopia.
Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common infections worldwide, particularly in developing countries. It also is among the most prevalent nosocomial infections, largely due to the widespread use of urinary catheters in hospitalized patients. These catheters often act as reservoirs for multidrug-resistant bacteria, including extended-spectrum beta-lactamase- and carbapenemase-producing pathogens, which significantly limit treatment options and delay appropriate care.

Medical Research Center, Kantonsspital St. Gallen, St. Gallen, Switzerland.
Introduction: The global rise of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing (ESBL-PE) challenges resource-limited countries with insufficient laboratory infrastructure. This study investigates fecal carriage and risk factors for ESBL-PE and carbapenemase-producing organisms among patients with urinary tract infection (UTI) in rural Tanzania.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at St.
