The susceptibility of 218 extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae isolates from companion animals to three cephamycins (cefmetazole, flomoxef, and latamoxef) was investigated. Phenotypic testing found 8 of 120 Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) and 15 of 69 Enterobacter cloacae (EC) isolates were ESBL and AmpC β-lactamase (ABL) co-producers. Isolates of KP, Proteus mirabilis, and EC that only produced ESBL exhibited susceptibility rates to cefmetazole (95.5%, 82.7%, and 9.3%), flomoxef (99.1%, 96.6%, and 74.0%), and latamoxef (99.1%, 100%, and 100%), respectively. Notably, isolates of KP and EC co-producing ESBL and ABL had significantly lower susceptibility rates to the studied drugs when compared with only ESBL producers. This implies that the in vitro activity of cephamycins against ESBL-producing bacteria can differ depending on ABL production and bacterial species.

Using minimally invasive tissue sampling (MITS) and Determination of Cause of Death (DeCoDe) to establish etiologies of community respiratory deaths among Zambian infants and children.

In low-to-middle income countries, acute lower respiratory infection (ALRI) remains the leading infectious cause of death among infants and children under 5 years old. Case-control studies based on upper respiratory sampling have informed current understandings of ALRI etiologies; in contrast, minimally-invasive tissue sampling (MITS) offers a method of directly interrogating lower respiratory tract pathogens to establish etiologic distributions. This study performed in the post-mortem setting used MITS and a Determination of Cause of Death (DeCoDe) panel to elucidate causes of fatal pneumonia in the community in Lusaka, Zambia.

Non-nutritive sweeteners (NNS) are widely employed in foodstuffs. However, it has become increasingly evident that their consumption is associated with bacterial dysbiosis, which, in turn, is linked to several health conditions, including a higher risk of type 2 diabetes and cancer. Among the NNS, stevia, whose main component is rebaudioside A (rebA), is gaining popularity in the organic food market segment.

After allogeneic HSCT (allo-HSCT), the diversity of the intestinal microbiota significantly decreases. The changes can be rapid and are thought to be caused by chemotherapy, antibiotics, or intestinal inflammation. Most patients are exposed to prophylactic and therapeutic antibiotics during neutropenia and several patients are colonized by ESBL bacteria.

Hypervirulent (hvKp) has attracted increasing attention in recent years. Diabetes and serotype K1 or K2 are risk factors for invasive liver abscess syndrome including liver abscesses and the metastatic complications such as bacteremia, meningitis, endophthalmitis, and necrotizing fasciitis. Simultaneous infections of the liver, lungs, prostate, brain, and eyes are exceedingly rare.
