Background: To determine if colonisation with drug resistant organisms is associated with worse outcomes in patients who subsequently develop sepsis.
Methods: Retrospective study of patients with sepsis employing logistic regression and linear regression to determine the independent association of colonisation with adverse outcomes.
Results: Mortality was higher in patients colonized with VRE [501 of 1937 (26%) v.

Background: Clostridiodes difficile bacteremia (CDB) develops in less than 1% of all the cases, nonetheless, with a significant increase in mortality. The objective of the present article is to report the first case of CDB in the Mexican population, empathizing with the treatment difficulty derived from the lack of consensus.
Clinical Case: A 42-year-old female with previous history of chronic thromboembolic pathologies and grade III obesity, develops community acquired atypical pneumonia requiring hospitalization, having parenteral antibiotics.
Alterations in the gut microbiome have been implicated in various pathologies. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has been offered as a novel treatment for conditions implicated in the disruption of the gut-microbiota axis. This case report details the successful treatment of recurrent nonobstructive cholangitis following a single FMT application in a patient who had previously undergone a hepatobiliary tract surgical diversion.

Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) caused by multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) represent a global threat to human health and well-being. Because transmission of MDROs to patients often occurs via transiently contaminated hands of healthcare personnel (HCP), hand hygiene is considered the most important measure for preventing HAIs. Environmental surfaces contaminated with MDROs from colonized or infected patients represent an important source of HCP hand contamination and contribute to transmission of pathogens.

Article Synopsis
- This paper talks about how depression, problems with gut bacteria (called dysbiosis), and C. difficile infections are connected, which they call "The 3 Ds."
- It points out that more people are getting depressed, which can be made worse by medicines like antidepressants that might change the bacteria in our guts.
- Finally, it discusses new treatments, like special bacteria products, that could help people who keep getting C. difficile infections.
