Effect of topical gentamicin in preventing surgical site infection in elective incisional hernia repair in a randomized controlled trial.
Sci Rep

Department of General and Digestive Surgery, Hospital Clínic Barcelona, Barcelona, 08036, Spain.
Article Synopsis
- Surgical site infections (SSI) are a common issue following surgeries, particularly in incisional hernia repairs, and the effectiveness of topical antibiotics like gentamicin for prevention remains uncertain.
- A randomized controlled trial was conducted with 146 patients, comparing outcomes between those given a gentamicin solution and those given saline solution during surgery.
- The study found no significant differences in SSI rates or other complications between the two groups, indicating that topical gentamicin did not effectively reduce SSI incidence in hernia repair surgeries.

Background: Although kidney diseases have a high prevalence, initial recognition and diagnosis of renal disease are complicated in avian medicine.
Objective: The aim of this study is to assess the intraosseous excretory urography (IOEU) in order to introduce a new method for evaluation of kidney's function in broilers as a primary model of birds.
Methods: A total of 10 male broiler chickens at the age of 20 days were included and evaluated with plain and serial post-contrast radiography and computed tomography (CT) scan to check the time and concentration of the contrast media (CM) passage from the kidney.

NpmA and NpmB are 16S rRNA methyltransferases that act on residue A1408 and confer high-level resistance to almost all aminoglycosides; however, these methyltransferases are rarely reported. A novel gene, npmC, was identified after analysisng all world-wide available metagenomic projects in a One Health context. This gene has a high level of similarity (91.
