infection (CDI) is one of the main causes of morbidity associated with antibiotic use, producing both healthcare-associated infections and community infections. This study aims to describe the epidemiological characteristics, the clinical outcomes, previous antibiotic exposure, and other risk factors of hospitalized patients with CDI in a tertiary infectious disease hospital in Bucharest, Romania. We performed a descriptive analysis based on four-year surveillance data, collected in a tertiary infectious disease hospital in Bucharest, Romania.

Background: Antibiotic resistant bacteria are a threat to both human and animal health. Of special concern are resistance mechanisms that are transmissible between bacteria, such as extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) and plasmid-mediated AmpC (pAmpC). ESBL/AmpC resistance is also of importance as it confers resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics including third generation cephalosporins.

Background: Lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) are the most common infections in humans accounting for significant morbidity and mortality. Management of LRTIs is complicated due to increasing antimicrobial resistance. This study investigated the prevalence and trends of antimicrobial resistance for bacteria isolated from respiratory samples of patients with LRTIs.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examined the effects of ceftriaxone and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) on protecting the spinal cord from acute spinal infection (ASI) in rats.
  • Results showed that the combination treatment of ceftriaxone and ADMSCs led to significantly lower inflammatory markers and bacterial counts compared to the individual treatments, indicating better inflammation control and tissue preservation.
  • By day 28, the combination therapy demonstrated superior results in protecting vertebral bone and spinal cord integrity compared to each treatment alone, suggesting a potential therapeutic strategy for ASI.
