as it leads to morecomplicated infections, longer duration of treatment, and increases in patient mortality (WHO, 2014). The recent Review onAntimicrobial Resistancepredicted that by 2050, the worldwide toll fro

The primary outcome was the establishment of the resistance prevalence statistics. The analysis employed proportion as the outcome measure and applied a random effects model. Heterogeneity (τ2) was estimated using the DerSimonian-Laird estimator [9]. Additionally, the Q-test for heterogeneity [10]...
Antibiotic resistance occurs when organisms like bacteria and fungi can withstand the drugs designed to counteract them. Discover the definition and types of antibiotic resistance, and then explore the antibiotic resistance strategies and problems they present. What Is Antibiotic Resistance? It's comfort...
The spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) poses a substantial threat to human health. Phage-mediated transduction could exacerbate ARG transmission. While several case studies exist, it is yet unclear to what extent phages encode and mobilize ARGs
While most of these have so far received less attention, expanding our understanding of these emerging resistance mechanisms is of crucial importance to combat the antibiotic resistance crisis in the world. This review summarizes recent advances in our knowledge of emerging resistance mechanisms in bacte...

33 The epidemics of CRE have gradually been challenging worldwide.1,2,36 In Europe, the resistance to carbapenem in K. pneumoniae increased in 5 of 24 countries from 2009 to 2012.37 However, the CRE isolation density in some countries retained a low level. For example, the CRE ...
The worldwide emergence of antibiotic resistance poses a serious threat to human health. A molecular understanding of resistance strategies employed by bacteria is obligatory to generate less-susceptible antibiotics. Albicidin is a highly potent antibact
The epidemiology of ESBLs changes rapidly worldwide and, hence, there is no general overview of these enzymes in UTIs. Specifically, the antibiotic resistance of E. coli and K. pneumoniae associated to ESBLs is particularly high in some countries of the European Union, where UTIs can no more...
