The landscape of drug resistance in Plasmodium falciparum malaria in the Democratic Republic of Congo: a mapping systematic review
substitution that is invoked in artemisinin-resistance emergence in the Great Lakes region of Africa. Parasites carrying various mutations linked to resistance to the sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine combination were ...
Animal sources of antimicrobial-resistant bacterial infections in humans: a systematic review
outcome measures they reported. The most frequently addressed animal source was chicken, followed by cattle and pigs. Most studies investigated bacteria-resistance combinations. Overall, studies on the ...
Fluoroquinolone resistance in Escherichia coli isolates after exposure to non-fluoroquinolone antibiotics: a retrospective case–control study
Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, Volume 75, Issue 7 (2020) Keywords: antibiotics Belgium Escherichia coli Fluoroquinolones Nitrofurantoin Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole Combination urine specimens ...
Development of an NGS-Based Workflow for Improved Monitoring of Circulating Plasmids in Support of Risk Assessment of Antimicrobial Resistance Gene Dissemination.
(Oxford Nanopore Technologies) and a combination of both (hybrid). Furthermore, the added value of conjugation of a plasmid to a known host was evaluated. As a case study, an isolate harboring a large, ...
Attributable deaths and disability-adjusted life-years caused by infections with antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the EU and the European Economic Area in 2015: a population-level modelling analysis
disability-adjusted life-years (DALY s). METHODS: We estimated the incidence of infections with 16 antibiotic resistance-bacterium combinations from European Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Network (EARS-Net) ...
RNA-based drug susceptibility testing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
performed directly on crude cell lysate using a combination of the bead-based MagPixTM (Luminex) and QuantigeneTM Plex (Thermo Fischer) technology. Normalized, relative genes expression levels (control vs ...
Point Prevalence Study of Healthcare-Associated Infections and Antimicrobial Use in Belgian Acute-Care Hospitals: Results of the ECDC PPS 2017
The top 3 of most used antimicrobial agents consisted of amoxicillin in combination with a beta-lactamase inhibitor (J01CR02, 19.7%), cefazolin (J01DB04, 9.7%) and piperacillin in combination with ...
Surveillance of antimicrobial resistant bacteria in Belgian hospitals: Report 2016
hospitals participated to the optional surveillance of resistance in enterococci. Data were combined for acute and chronic care hospitals. The mean incidence of vancomycin and linezolid resistant Enterococcus ...
Comparative genomics of quinolone-resistant and susceptible Campylobacter jejuni of poultry origin from major poultry producing European countries (GENCAMP)
cgMLST trees of only FQ-R and FQ-S isolates showed that isolates from the same country of origin were distributed into multiple clusters similarly to the trees combining FQ-R and FQ-S isolates. The ...
Poor adherence to guidelines for preventing central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI): results of a worldwide survey.
= 1.4) reported compliance to the following (combined) recommendations for CL insertion: hand hygiene, full barrier precaution, chlorhexidine >0.5%, no topic or systemic antimicrobial prophylaxis; 60% ...
