A population-based study led by the University of Turku, Finland, investigated factors associated with the prevalence of antibiotic resistance. In addition to antibiotic use, diet, gender, living ...
For bacteria, microplastics are the perfect meetup spot—tiny, intimate surfaces where microbes can cling, huddle close and swap genes. And these crowded bacterial breeding grounds may pose a threat to ...
Talk about a culture shock. Microplastics, like the ones pictured here, have been linked to several health concerns. Researchers from Boston University identified another downside to microplastics — ...
For bacteria, microplastics are the perfect meetup spot—tiny, intimate surfaces where microbes can cling, huddle close and swap genes. And these crowded bacterial breeding grounds may pose a threat to ...
In Guatemalan communities, a recent visit to a health clinic or hospital - not antibiotic use - is the strongest predictor of carrying bacteria resistant to critical antibiotics, according to a new ...
Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have found a way to use a bacterium's own drug resistance mechanisms ...
Researchers have identified three key factors that increase the risk for patients to pass on carbapenemase-producing carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriacecae to another patient, helping explain why ...
A new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on the deadly drug-resistant bacteria NDM-CRE found a 70% rise in infections in the U.S. between 2019 and 2023. Also known as ...
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are already directly responsible for the deaths of an estimated 1.27 million people every year, and these challenging infections contribute to the deaths of millions more ...
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is spreading awareness to an increase in drug-resistant bacteria in its report, Annals of Internal Medicine. Infections related to the bacteria, called ...
Talk about a culture shock. Microplastics — tiny particles that come from large plastic items and industrial waste — can ...
