: The increased prevalence of antibiotic resistance among Gram-negative bacteria presents a severe public health challenge, leading to increased mortality rates, prolonged hospital stays, and higher medical costs. In Greece, the issue of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria is particularly alarming, exacerbated by overuse of antibiotics and inadequate infection control measures. This study aimed to detect the prevalence of extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Gram-negative bacteria in a tertiary hospital in Western Greece over the last eight years from 2016 to 2023.

is an important foodborne pathogen that can cause a range of illnesses in humans; it has also been a key focus for monitoring in the field of public health, including gastroenteritis, sepsis, and arthritis, and can also cause a decline in egg production in poultry and diarrhea and abortion in livestock, leading to death in severe cases, resulting in huge economic losses. This study aimed to investigate the isolation rate, antimicrobial resistance, serotypes, and genetic diversity of isolated from yak feces in various regions on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. A total of 1222 samples of yak dung were collected from major cities in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau area, and the sensitivity of the isolated bacteria to 10 major classes of antibiotics was determined using the K-B paper disk diffusion method for drug susceptibility.

Background: Plasma oxidized lipids are intimately linked to immune regulation as bioactive mediators. However, it is not clear whether they are related to the progression of sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) and the effect of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). This study intends to explore the changes in certain oxidized lipid during CRRT treatment and their correlation with the immune microenvironment and prognosis by analyzing plasma oxidative lipidomics.
