2. 1. Antimicrobial Resistance and Production of Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamases in Enterobacteriaceae from Birds in Bangladesh

   Author : Badrul Hasan; Björn Olsen; Åsa Melhus; Yvonne Agersø; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Antimicrobial Resistance; ESBL; CTX-M; NDM; Poultry; Wild birds; E. coli; Bangladesh; Enterobacteriaceae; Antibiotics; Epidemiology; Epidemiologi; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology; Medical Science; Medicinsk vetenskap;

   Abstract : The dissemination of members of the Enterobacteriaceae family with extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) and metallo-beta-lactamases (MBLs) has become a global concern. ESBLs and MBLs have been reported in humans, domestic animals, wildlife and the environment, and their isolation frequencies are increasing rapidly worldwide. READ MORE

4. 2. Uropathogenic Esherichia coli, multidrug-resistance and induction of host defense mechanisms

   Author : Isak Demirel; Katarina Persson; Robert Kruse; Mirjana Poljakovic; Gabriela Godaly; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Urinary tract infection; uropathogenic Escherichia coli; suppressor of cytokine signalling 3; nitric oxide; cytokines; extended-spectrum beta-lactamases; filamentation; IL-6; Biomedicin; Biomedicine;

   Abstract : Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the primary cause of urinary tract infection (UTI), which is one of the most common infections in humans. UPEC strains have acquired successful strategies to subvert the host defense and antibiotics to persist in the urinary tract. READ MORE

5. 3. Multidrug-Resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae : Treatment, Selection and International Spread

   Author : Thomas Tängdén; Otto Cars; Anders Johansson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Escherichia coli; Klebsiella pneumoniae; extended-spectrum beta-lactamases; carbapenemases; metallo-beta-lactamases; synergy; antibiotic interventions;

   Abstract : The prevalence of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae producing extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) and carbapenemases is increasing worldwide. Therapeutic options for infections with these bacteria are limited not only by the production of ESBLs and carbapenemases, which confer resistance to cephalosporins and carbapenems, but also by frequent co-resistance to other antibiotics.

6. 4. Mechanisms and Dynamics of Carbapenem Resistance in Escherichia coli

   Author : Marlen Adler; Linus Sandegren; Josep Casadesús; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; carbapenem; antibiotic resistance; fitness cost; ESBLs; penicillin-binding proteins; gene amplification;

   Abstract : The emergence of extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing Enterobacteriaceae worldwide has led to an increased use of carbapenems and may drive the development of carbapenem resistance. Existing mechanisms are mainly due to acquired carbapenemases or the combination of ESBL-production and reduced outer membrane permeability. READ MORE

7. 5. Lessons from diagnosis-prescribing and antibiotic resistance surveillance in Ujjain, India : the lull before the storm

   Author : Ashish Pathak; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : antibiotic prescribing;

   Abstract : Background: The evolution of antibiotic resistance is a global public health crisis building over decades. In this build-up antibiotic use has been the main driver for antibiotic resistance. READ MORE
