Infection with the multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae New Delhi metallo-B-lactamase strain in patients with COVID-19:
Front Cell Infect Microbiol
May 2024
Department of Microbiology, Wroclaw Medical University, Wrocław, Poland.
Background: During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, in patients treated for SARS-CoV-2 infection, infections with the bacteria producing New Delhi metallo-B-lactamase (NDM) carbapenemase in the USA, Brazil, Mexico, and Italy were observed, especially in intensive care units (ICUs). This study aimed to assess the impact of NDM infection and other bacterial infections on mortality in patients treated in ICUs due to COVID-19.
Methods: The 160 patients who qualified for the study were hospitalized in ICUs due to COVID-19.
Epidemiology of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales infection in kidney transplant recipients.

Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine, Faculty of Medicine Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.
Background: Extended-spectrum b-lactamase (ESBL)-producing gram-negative bacilli (ESBL-GNB) are the most important pathogenic bacteria infecting kidney transplant patients. Kidney transplantation has been shown to be a risk factor for nosocomial ESBL-GNB bacteremia. The aims of this study were to describe the epidemiology of ESBL-GNB acquisition and to identify factors associated with ESBL-GNB infection in kidney transplant recipients, including pretransplant ESBL-GNB fecal carriage.

We conducted a retrospective study from 2005 to 2019 to describe the epidemiology and mortality of enterobacterial producing extended-spectrum β-lactamase (E-ESBL) infections in our university hospital over a 17-year period of time. Clinical and microbiological data were extracted from different software used for continuous surveillance. Stool samples from systematic screening for E-ESBL colonization were excluded from the study.

Department of Medical Microbiology, School of Biomedical and Laboratory Sciences, College of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Gondar, Ethiopia.
Background: Fecal carriage of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase and Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae is a potential risk for the transmission of infection with resistant strains. Understanding the burden of these resistant strains in asymptomatic people is essential to reduce the chain of infection transmission. However, data on the fecal carriage of Extended-spectrum Beta-lactamase and Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae among food handlers were limited in developing countries especially in Ethiopia.
