1. Multidrug-Resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae : Treatment, Selection and International Spread
Sammanfattning : 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.

2. Mechanisms and Dynamics of Mecillinam Resistance in Escherichia coli
Sammanfattning : The introduction of antibiotics in healthcare is one of the most important medical achievements with regard to reducing human morbidity and mortality. However, bacterial pathogens have acquired antibiotic resistance at an increasing rate, and due to a high prevalence of resistance to some antibiotics they can no longer be used therapeutically. LÄS MER
3. Evolution and Mechanisms of Tigecycline Resistance in Escherichia coli
Sammanfattning : Antibiotic resistance is an ongoing global medical crisis and we are in great need of new antibacterial agents to combat rapidly emerging resistant pathogens. Tigecycline is one of few drugs that have been introduced into medicine during the last two decades. LÄS MER
4. Antibiotic sensitivity and horizontal gene transfer in Escherichia coli - A genome-wide perspective
Sammanfattning : Since their discovery in the early 20th century, antibiotics have truly revolutionized human medicine. They have allowed us to treat diseases that were previously untreatable and have become a staple of modern medicine. However, along with the human use of antibiotics pathogens resistant to antibiotics emerged. LÄS MER
5. Long-term molecular epidemiology of extended-spectrum β-lactamase producing Escherichia coli in a low-endemic setting
Sammanfattning : Escherichia coli is a commensal inhabitant in the gastro-intestinal tract of humans and animals but it is also the most common bacterial species causing urinary tract infection, which ranges in severity from distal cystitis to urosepsis and septic shock. During the past decades, the prevalence of antibiotic resistant E. LÄS MER
