Compared with Cotrimoxazole Nitroxoline Seems to Be a Better Option for the Treatment and Prophylaxis of Urinary Tract Infections Caused by Multidrug-Resistant Uropathogens: An In Vitro Study Open
The resistance of uropathogens to various antibiotics is increasing, but nitroxoline remains active in vitro against some relevant multidrug resistant uropathogenic bacteria. E. coli strains, which are among the most common uropathogens, a…

Gallbladder Cancer Presenting as Mirizzi Syndrome Complicated by Rapidly Evolving 23 rRNA Gene-Linezolid Resistance with Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus Infection Resulting in Fatal Cholangial Sepsis Open
We describe the case of a 71-year-old woman who presented with obstructive jaundice and subhilar bile duct stenosis. MRI showed extensive cholecystolithiasis with an impacted bile stone in the cystic duct suggesting Mirizzi syndrome. Delay…

External quality assessment (EQA) of Neisseria gonorrhoeae antimicrobial susceptibility testing in primary laboratories in Germany Open
Background Worldwide, an increase in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) of Neisseria gonorrhoeae has been observed. Until now, no protocol for an external quality assessment (EQA) has been available for Germany. The German gonococcal resistanc…
