Antibiotic treatment transiently improves pouchitis by suppressing exotoxin-producing bacteria, but resistant strains quickly re-emerge, driving relapse; targeted microbial approaches are needed for sustained remission.
A global genomic study of Helicobacter pylori reveals that mutations in 23S rRNA and gyrA predict antibiotic resistance with 100% sensitivity, signaling the end of empirical therapy in favor of genotype-based personalized treatment.
A large international trial found that selective decontamination of the digestive tract (SDD) during mechanical ventilation did not reduce hospital mortality but decreased bloodstream infections and antibiotic-resistant organisms, with no c
A multicountry outbreak of diphtheria among migrants in Europe raised concerns about cutaneous and respiratory disease, cross-border spread, and emerging antibiotic resistance. Genomic analysis revealed multiclonal transmission and resistan
Antibiotic resistance is growing worldwide, threatening our ability to treat common infections. Discover the science, misconceptions, and what we can all do to combat superbugs.
