Development of an NGS-Based Workflow for Improved Monitoring of Circulating Plasmids in Support of Risk Assessment of Antimicrobial Resistance Gene Dissemination.
view of AMR gene localization, i.e., chromosomal or on a plasmid. Whole-genome and plasmid DNA extraction methods were compared, as were assemblies consisting of short reads (Illumina MiSeq), long reads ...
Molecular surveillance of anti-malarial drug resistance in Democratic Republic of Congo: high variability of chloroquinoresistance and lack of amodiaquinoresistance.
national policies as a first-line treatment for uncomplicated malaria in several endemic countries, such as the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The K76T mutation on the pfcrt gene has been identified as ...
Superficial mycoses in Belgium: Burden, costs and antifungal drugs consumption
mycoses in Belgium and to assess trends in associated antifungal consumption. Methods The burden of dermatophytoses (including onychomycosis), as well as skin and genital candidiasis, was estimated using ...
Prevalence of healthcare-associated infections, estimated incidence and composite antimicrobial resistance index in acute care hospitals and long-term care facilities: results from two European point prevalence surveys, 2016 to 2017
study confirmed a high annual number of HAI in healthcare facilities in the EU / EEA and indicated that AMR in HAI in LTCF may have reached the same level as in ACH. Health Topics: Résistance aux ...
Antimicrobial use in European long-term care facilities: results from the third point prevalence survey of healthcare-associated infections and antimicrobial use, 2016 to 2017
Centre for Disease Prevention and Control initiated point prevalence surveys (PPS) of healthcare-associated infections and antimicrobial use in European LTCF s, performed by external contractors as the ...
Time trend of prevalence and susceptibility to nitrofurantoin of urinary MDR Escherichia coli from outpatients
ciprofloxacin, nitrofurantoin and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole) of urinary E. coli. MDR was defined as resistance to three or more of these agents. The prevalence of MDR E. coli and its non-susceptibility to ...
RNA-based drug susceptibility testing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
drug) are combined to one numeric value which determines the drug susceptibility of the investigated strain. The assay was optimized for parameters as cell density, incubation time and lysis method. ...
Surveillance of antimicrobial resistant bacteria in Belgian hospitals: Report 2016
as in 2015 (0.14 cases per 1 000 patient days). In acute and chronic care hospital 50.1% and 41.3% of all nosocomial MRSA cases were detected through screening, respectively. One hundred and five ...
Comparative genomics of quinolone-resistant and susceptible Campylobacter jejuni of poultry origin from major poultry producing European countries (GENCAMP)
different phylogenetic methods, ranging from single nucleotide polymorphisms analysis to gene-by-gene approaches such as rMLST, cgMLST, wgMLST and core genome tree, provided concordant results, but it is not ...
Poor adherence to guidelines for preventing central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI): results of a worldwide survey.
following the SHEA guidelines as a standard. We computed weighted estimates for high, middle and low-income countries using country population as a weight. Only countries providing at least 10 complete ...
