21 paź 2015 · Why does antibiotic resistance happen? Why is it important? Although antibiotic resistance can be considered to be an inevitable consequence of antibiotic use, injudicious use of antibiotics is a major factor facilitating the emergence of resistance worldwide.
21 lis 2023 · The global rise in antibiotic resistance poses a significant threat, diminishing the efficacy of common antibiotics against widespread bacterial infections. The 2022 Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) report highlights alarming resistance rates among prevalent bacterial pathogens.
25 cze 2015 · High antibiotic resistance frequencies have become a major public health issue. The decrease in new antibiotics' production, combined with increasing frequencies of multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria, cause substantial limitations in treatment options for some bacterial infections.
18 gru 2020 · The emergence of resistance mechanisms and their dissemination have contributed to the poor efficacy of many antibiotics, and the selection of multidrug-resistant bacteria is often the cause of ineffective treatment with increased morbidity and mortality.
13 lut 2021 · Our systematic review and meta-analysis of 15 studies indicates that applying restrictive antibiotic interventions has a significant effect on the resistance of nonfermenters to fluoroquinolones.
24 lip 2020 · Researchers from the University of Oxford’s Department of Zoology have discovered that moderate doses of antibiotics restrict the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This constraint arises because antibiotic exposure harms resistant cells, limiting the ability of individual resistant cells to establish successful populations.
2 wrz 2021 · Some bacteria are naturally resistant to certain antibiotics (intrinsic or inherent resistance). A more worrying problem is when some bacteria, that are normally susceptible to antibiotics, become resistant as a result of genetic changes (acquired resistance).
