Bacterial infections can cause many human diseases, which are closely related to people's health. Nowadays, antibiotics are mainly used to treat bacterial infections, but the widespread use of antibiotics can also lead to bacterial resistance. Therefore, effective treatment of bacterial infections is an urgent problem to be solved. In this article, a multifunctional therapeutic material with antibacterial properties was designed and synthesized. First, the porous media material ZIF-8 was synthesized, and applied to load hesperidin. When the load is completed, a layer of hyaluronic acid (HA) is uniformly wrapped on surface of the material. Such materials have high stability and high drug-carrying capacity, and can be slowly released in vivo. The HA coated on surface can also promote penetration of active ingredients into cells and give full play to antibacterial ability. Results of in vitro and in vivo antibacterial tests show that synergy between the materials enhances antibacterial activity which is related to dose. The material achieves high-efficiency antibacterial effects by increasing the permeability of cell membranes and destroying the integrity of bacteria. At same time, the material does not show obvious side effects. Therefore, the material seems to be a promising antibacterial agent with good biocompatibility and strong antibacterial activity.

Taylorella equigenitalis is the causative agent of sexually transmitted contagious equine metritis. Infections manifest as cervicitis, vaginitis and endometritis and cause temporary infertility and miscarriages of mares. While previous studies have analyzed this organism for various parameters, the evolutionary dynamics of this pathogen, including the emergence of antibiotic resistance, remains unresolved.

Introduction: Tackling the inertia of growing threat of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) requires changes in how antibiotics are prescribed and utilized. The monitoring of antimicrobial prescribing in hospitals is a critical component in optimizing antibiotic use. Point prevalence surveys (PPSs) enable the surveillance of antibiotic prescribing at the patient level in small hospitals that lack the resources to establish antimicrobial stewardship programs (ASP).

Background: The antibiotic resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) is increasingly severe in bronchiectasis patients. However, there is currently a lack of research on the clinical outcomes of carbapenem-resistant PA (CRPA) isolation in hospitalized exacerbations of bronchiectasis (HEB) patients. We investigated the incidence, risk factors, and clinical outcomes of PA and CRPA isolation in HEB patients.

Background And Aims: Although beneficial in reducing the risk of bacterial infections in patients with advanced decompensated cirrhosis after upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleed, the utility of prophylactic antibiotics in those with Child-Pugh A cirrhosis is not known. We studied if prophylactic antibiotics can be withheld in this cohort.

Methods: This was a single-centre, open-label randomised-controlled-trial with non-inferiority design.
