Background: Skin wounds are highly common in diabetic patients, and with increasing types of pathogenic bacteria and antibiotic resistance, wounds and infections in diabetic patients are difficult to treat and heal.
Aim: To explore the effects of betaine ointment (BO) in promoting the healing of skin wounds and reducing the inflammation and apoptosis of skin cells in microbially infected diabetic mice.
Methods: By detecting the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of betaine and plant monomer components such as psoralen, we prepared BO with betaine as the main ingredient, blended it with traditional Chinese medicines such as gromwell root and psoralen, and evaluated its antibacterial effects and safety and .

The emergence of antibiotic-resistant microorganisms has made antimicrobial resistance a global issue, and milk is a potential source for the propagation of resistant bacteria causing zoonotic diseases. Subclinical mastitis (SCM) cases, often overlooked and mixed with normal milk in dairy farms, frequently involve , which can spread through contaminated milk. We conducted this study to determine the prevalence of virulence genes, antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), antimicrobial susceptibility, and the genetic relatedness of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Shiga toxin-producing (STEC) isolated from SCM milk.

Microorganisms, crucial for environmental equilibrium, could be destructive, resulting in detrimental pathophysiology to the human host. Moreover, with the emergence of antibiotic resistance (ABR), the microbial communities pose the century's largest public health challenges in terms of effective treatment strategies. Furthermore, given the large diversity and number of known bacterial strains, describing treatment choices for infected patients using experimental methodologies is time-consuming.

Introduction: The intensification of tilapia production has increased animal density in tanks, leading to more frequent exposure to pathogenic agents and compromising the quality of fish products. Antimicrobial resistance is a global concern that affects human treatment, and sentinel microorganisms like are crucial for monitoring production chains, especially in aquaculture, where research is still limited. The aim of this study was to identify the presence of and investigate its antimicrobial resistance profiles throughout the entire tilapia production chain.

Although metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) technology has achieved notable outcomes in pathogen detection, there remains a gap in the research regarding its application in predicting the antibiotic resistance of pathogenic bacteria. This study aims to analyze the clinical application value of mNGS in predicting the resistance of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), as well as the relevant influencing factors, thereby providing valuable insights for clinical antimicrobial therapy. Nonduplicate isolates of bacteria collected from Liaocheng People's Hospital from April 2023 to June 2024 were selected, and CRE bacteria were screened.
