Osteomyelitis is commonly caused by pathogens like , but rare organisms such as , typically associated with superficial skin infections, can also be implicated. Recognizing these atypical pathogens presents diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, especially in the presence of orthopedic hardware. We conducted a literature review yielding 25 studies and encompassing 797 patient cases, which highlights the emerging role of species in osteomyelitis, particularly following trauma or surgical interventions.

Disruption of host-associated microbial communities can have detrimental impacts on host health. However, the capacity of individual host-associated microbial communities to resist disturbance has not been well defined. Using a novel fecal sampling method for honey bees (Apis mellifera), we examined the resistance of the honey bee gut microbiome to disruption from a low dose of the antibiotic, tetracycline (4.

are opportunistic pathogens which can cause mastitis in dairy cattle. mastitis often has a poor cure rate and can lead to the development of chronic infection, which has an impact on both health and production. However, there are few studies which aim to fully characterize by whole-genome sequencing from bovine mastitis cases.

Background: To understand the emergence and spread of drug-resistant parasites in malaria-endemic areas, accurate assessment and monitoring of antimalarial drug resistance markers is critical. Recent advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have enabled the tracking of drug-resistant malaria parasites.

Methods: In this study, we used Targeted Amplicon Deep Sequencing (TADS) to characterise the genetic diversity of the Pfk13, Pfdhfr, Pfdhps, and Pfmdr1 genes among primary school-going children in 15 counties in Kenya (Bungoma, Busia, Homa Bay, Migori, Kakamega, Kilifi, Kirinyaga, Kisii, Kisumu, Kwale, Siaya, Tana River, Turkana, Vihiga and West Pokot).
