The increasing incidence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) presents a global crisis to
healthcare, with longstanding antimicrobial agents becoming less effective at treating and …

Objectives The widespread intestinal carriage of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL E.
coli) among both patients and healthy individuals is alarming. However, the global …

Background The epidemiology of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) has undergone
dramatic changes, with CTX-M-type enzymes prevailing over other types. bla CTX-M genes …

Background Fecal carriage of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing
Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE) remains poorly documented in Africa. The objective of this …

Objectives We evaluated risk factors for gastrointestinal carriage of Enterobacteriaceae
which produce extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL-E), including individual-level …

The human microbiome can protect against colonization with pathogenic antibiotic-resistant
bacteria (ARB), but its impacts on the spread of antibiotic resistance are poorly understood …

Objective: To determine whether colonization with extended-spectrum β-lactamase–
producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE) predicts the risk for subsequent infection and …

Introduction New beta-lactams, associated or not with beta-lactamase inhibitors (NBs/BIs),
can respond to the spread of carbapenemase-producing enterobacteriales and …

This work compares the prevalence of antibiotic resistant coliform bacteria in hospital
wastewater effluents in Slovak (SR) and Czech Republic (ČR). It also describes selected …

Background The aim of this study is to evaluate the risk factors for colonisation by multidrug
resistant (MDR) K. pneumoniae in a critical care unit and the relationship between …
