In vitro activity of rifampicin, rifapentine and rifabutin in combination with their 25-deacetyl-metabolites against various Mycobacterium tuberculosis lineages
Genestet C, Bourg C, Hodille E, Bahuaud O, Ader F, Goutelle S, et al.
Ann Clin Microbiol Antimicrob . 2025 Feb; 24(1):16. PMID: 40022145
Objectives: Rifamycin agents (rifampicin (RIF), rifapentine (RFP), rifabutin (RFB)) are the cornerstone of tuberculosis (TB) therapy. Rifamycins are metabolized into 25-deacetyl-metabolites, which have been described has active and may contribute...

Characterization, genomic analysis and preclinical evaluation of the lytic Staphylococcus bacteriophage PSK against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus wound isolate
Zanaty A, Dishisha T, El-Sayed-Ahmed M, Abdel-Fattah M, Ahmed K, Abdelkader K
Ann Clin Microbiol Antimicrob . 2025 Feb; 24(1):17. PMID: 40022070
Background: The dissemination of multi-drug-resistant bacteria, particularly Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), necessitates exploring new alternatives for their control. Bacteriophages are promising antibiotic alternatives with unique features. Here, we have performed...

Major blood stream infection-causing bacterial pathogens, antimicrobial resistance patterns and trends: a multisite retrospective study in Asmara, Eritrea (2014-2022)
Andemichael Y, Habtetsion E, Gulbet H, Eman M, Achila O, Mengistu S, et al.
Ann Clin Microbiol Antimicrob . 2025 Feb; 24(1):15. PMID: 39984936
Background: An important knowledge gap exists on the epidemiology of blood stream infections (BSIs) in low-middle-income countries (LMICs). In this retrospective analysis, we evaluated the etiology, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and...

Host DNA depletion assisted metagenomic sequencing of bronchoalveolar lavage fluids for diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis
Yuan J, Ma L, Du J, Sun H, Li S, Zhou G, et al.
Ann Clin Microbiol Antimicrob . 2025 Feb; 24(1):13. PMID: 39962548
Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) has greatly improved our understanding of pathogens in infectious diseases such as pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). However, high human DNA background (> 95%) impedes the detection sensitivity...

Diagnostics, resistance and clinical relevance of non-tuberculous mycobacteria unidentified at the species level by line probe assays: a bi-national study
Dohal M, Wetzstein N, Hromadkova M, Masiarova S, Rasmussen E, Kunc P, et al.
Ann Clin Microbiol Antimicrob . 2025 Feb; 24(1):14. PMID: 39962513
Objectives: While the reported incidence of non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections is increasing, the true prevalence remains uncertain due to limitations in diagnostics and surveillance. The emergence of rare and novel...

Exploring New Delhi Metallo Beta Lactamases in Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli: genotypic vs. phenotypic insights
Ain N, Elton L, Sadouki Z, McHugh T, Riaz S
Ann Clin Microbiol Antimicrob . 2025 Feb; 24(1):12. PMID: 39923059
Background: Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales pose a serious clinical threat, particularly in high-burden settings of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae (CREK), where rapid detection tools are essential to aid patient management....

Comparison of phenotypic and genetic traits of ESBL-producing UPEC strains causing recurrent or single episode UTI in postmenopausal women
Kalu M, Jorth P, Wong-Beringer A
Ann Clin Microbiol Antimicrob . 2025 Feb; 24(1):11. PMID: 39920666
Background: Recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTIs) occur in over 20% of patients, with postmenopausal women (over 50 years old) carrying the highest risk for recurrence compared to younger women. Virulence...

Poor efficacy of the combination of clarithromycin, amikacin, and cefoxitin against Mycobacterium abscessus in the hollow fiber infection model
Vignaud E, Goutelle S, Genestet C, Guitton J, Cohen S, Bourg C, et al.
Ann Clin Microbiol Antimicrob . 2025 Jan; 24(1):10. PMID: 39885508
Background: Mycobacterium abscessus (MABS) causes difficult-to-treat pulmonary and extra-pulmonary infections. A combination therapy comprising amikacin, cefoxitin, and a macrolide agent is recommended, but its antimicrobial activity and clinical efficacy is...
