Newest firstThe rapid emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial pathogens poses a critical threat to global health, creating an urgent need for novel antimicrobial agents. In this study, we evaluated a small library of natural and semisynthetic phytocannabinoids against a broad panel of MDR Gram-positive bacterial strains, evidencing very good activity in the low µM range. We provide evidence of the antibacterial activ…
Open article record in new tab ↗BackgroundUrinary tract infections (UTIs) remain a common clinical condition requiring antibiotic prescription among adult outpatients in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Data regarding the prevalence, patterns of bacteria and their antibacterial susceptibility profile for community acquired UTI are limited. MethodsA hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted from May to August 2024 at Igoma and B…
BackgroundHospital-acquired infections (HAIs) remain a global public-health concern, particularly in low- and middle-income countries where infection-prevention resources are limited. Surgical-site infections (SSIs) and urinary-tract infections (UTIs) are among the most frequent HAIs and contribute to increased morbidity and healthcare costs. Genomic surveillance provides insights into the diversity, antimicrobial…
Open article record in new tab ↗Infections caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria are recognized as a critical One Health concern which poses a significant threat to public health, leading to increased morbidity and mortality across both high- and low-income countries. In this study, we investigated the epidemiology and molecular mechanisms of multidrug-resistant methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MDR-MRSA) strains identified in…
Open article record in new tab ↗Klebsiella pneumoniae is a prominent opportunistic pathogen associated with multidrug resistance (MDR) and high morbidity and mortality rates in healthcare settings. The emergence of strains resistant to last-resort antibiotics, such as colistin and carbapenems, poses significant therapeutic challenges. This study presents the complete genome analysis of the MDR strain K. pneumoniae BCSIR-JUMIID to elucidate its g…
BackgroundInfected diabetic foot ulcer (IDFU) is a public health issue and a leading cause of non-traumatic limb amputation. Very few published data on IDFU is available in most West African countries. The objective of this study was to investigate the etiological agents of IDFU and the challenge of antibacterial drug resistance in the management of infections.\n\nMethodsThis was a prospective cross-sectional hosp…
