Background: The aim of this study was to assess the incidence of bacterobilia at the time of a pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and the association of resistant bacteria in bile to surgical site infections (SSI).

Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study including patients undergoing PD in a single center between May 2016 and October 2020. Data of preoperative biliary drainage (PBD), intraoperative biliary cultures (IBC) and postoperative complications were analysed to assess the risk factors for resistant bacteria in IBC and SSIs.

Results: Of 361 patients included, 254 (70%) had undergone PBD. Second-generation cephalosporin resistant bacteria were found in IBC of 183 (64%) of all the patients. PBD was the only risk factor for second-generation cephalosporin resistance. The risk for second-generation cephalosporin resistance was more than 20-fold in patients with PBD [n = 170/254 (67%) (OR 22.58 (95% CI, 9.61-53.01), p < 0.001)] compared to patients who did not have PBD (n = 13/107 (12%)). Also, if the time between PBD and surgery was 2 months or more the second-generation cephalosporin resistance in IBC increased the risk for SSIs (OR 4.14 (95% CI, 1.18-14.51), p = 0.027).

Conclusion: The second-generation cephalosporin resistance in IBC is common in patients who have undergone PBD. Broad-spectrum antibiotics in prophylaxis may be beneficial for these patients.

Multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacterial infections.

Lancet

Multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacterial infections cause significant morbidity and mortality globally. These pathogens easily acquire antimicrobial resistance (AMR), further highlighting their clinical significance. Third-generation cephalosporin-resistant and carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (eg, Escherichia coli and Klebsiella spp), multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii are the most problematic and have been identified as priority pathogens.

Introduction: This study aimed to understand the origin and to explain the maintenance of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) isolated from food-producing animals in a third-generation cephalosporin (3GC)-free farm.

Methods: Culture and molecular approaches were used to test molecules other than 3GC such as antibiotics (tetracycline and oxytetracycline), antiparasitics (ivermectin, flumethrin, fenbendazol, and amitraz), heavy metal [arsenic, HNO, aluminum, HNO, cadmium (CdSO), zinc (ZnCl), copper (CuSO), iron (FeCl), and aluminum (AlSO)], and antioxidant (butylated hydroxytoluene) as sources of selective pressure. Whole-genome sequencing using short read (Illumina™) and long read (Nanopore™) technologies was performed on 34 genomes.

Objectives: This study aimed to identify the aetiological spectrum, seasonal distribution and antimicrobial resistance patterns of diarrhoeal diseases in Bhutan.

Study Design And Setting: The study used a cross-sectional, retrospective analysis of secondary data gathered through a passive, hospital-based sentinel surveillance for diarrhoeal disease across 12 hospitals, representing Bhutan's demographically diverse regions.

Participants: A total of 3429 participants' data of all age groups who presented with diarrhoea at sentinel hospitals between 1 January 1 2016 and 31 December 2022 were analysed.

Prevalence of difficult-to-treat resistance in ESKAPE pathogens in a third level hospital in Mexico.

Infect Prev Pract

March 2025

Department of Infectious Diseases, Hospital Universitario "Dr. José E. González" y Facultad de Medicina, Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León, Mitras Centro, Monterrey, Nuevo León, CP 64460, México.

Background: Antimicrobial resistance and difficult-to-treat resistance (DTR) in ESKAPE pathogens ( and species) is a threat to human health. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of antimicrobial resistance and DTR rates in ESKAPE pathogens over six years in a third-level hospital from Monterrey, Mexico.

Methods: Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was determined by either disk diffusion or broth microdilution in strains from 2018 to 2023.

Cefepime-tazobactam (FEP-TAZ) consists of cefepime combined with tazobactam, a penicillanic acid-sulfone recognized as an established beta-lactamase inhibitor. This study aims to investigate the in-vitro effectiveness of FEP-TAZ against cefepime-resistant clinical isolates of Escherichia coli (E. coli).
