Hence, this study aimed to analyze the microbiological profiles of circulating of K. pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing K. pneumoniae belonging to ST258 clone in Asia. A systematic search was prepared and reported through searching the Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Google Scholar electronic databases to find all available articles that are pertinent to our design from January 2000 to December 2019. Afterward, 10 publications meeting the inclusion criteria were included for data extraction and analysis. The majority of included studies were from the eastern region including China, South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and Hong Kong, and only one report from the western region was reported in Turkey. The earliest report was in 2010 from Korea and the late one in 2017 from China. All of those studies that performed a carbapenemase detection method indicated positive results. Except for one isolate, which containing blaKPC–3, all of the isolates harbor blaKPC–2. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of colistin against ST258 isolates was estimated ranging from 0.094 to 4 μg/ml. The plasmid investigation showed a marked heterogeneity toward the studied isolates; however, IncFII type plasmids were the most prevalent plasmid. Our findings highlighted that despite the growing concern regarding the potential distribution of KPC-producing K. pneumoniae in Asia, strains belonged to the ST258 clone are not the main suspects. However, more clinical studies should be performed in the future to support our findings.","PeriodicalId":231643,"journal":{"name":"Reviews and Research in Medical Microbiology","volume":"119 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133752811","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The pattern of liver histological changes in patients with HBV and HCV infections resembles those of NAFLD, leading to potential misdiagnosis. Methods: Using global databases such as Scopus and PubMed, relevant studies were retrieved and those studies found to be eligible based on inclusion criteria were analyzed. Statistical analysis was done by comprehensive meta-analysis software. Results: The results suggested an inverse association between HBV and HCV infections and hepatic steatosis risk, but not significant. The risk of hepatic steatosis in patients with concurrent chronic viral hepatitis is significantly associated performed with metabolic syndrome and biochemical parameters particularly body mass index > 25 kg/m2, arterial hypertension, dyslipidemia, type 2 diabetes, hypertriglyceridemia, and hypercholesterolemia. Conclusion: According to the results of the present study, viral hepatitis (viral load) has a protective role against the development of hepatic steatosis. Nevertheless, hepatic steatosis in patients infected with HBV and HCV was associated with metabolic syndrome.","PeriodicalId":231643,"journal":{"name":"Reviews and Research in Medical Microbiology","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132119943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main question was, ‘What are the most reliable in-vitro methods to determine MIC and MBC of EOs’? The reported outputs of the search terms for the colony-forming unit (CFU), MIC, MBC, and the zone of inhibition (ZOI) were used to assess the methods.121 studies reported ‘Antibacterial’, 90 ‘Antifungal’, 110 ‘Antimicrobial’, 71 ‘ZOI’, 17 ‘CFU’, and 35 ‘MIC and MBC’. Forty-seven studies were selected according to the criteria for analysis in this review. This review indicated that each study requires its appropriate method. The antimicrobial efficacy of herbal extracts or EOs was not comparable to those of the antibiotics. The use of standard microbial strains is essential when clinical strains are included in the research. Based on the contents and analysis of the published articles, it is clear that designing antimicrobial experiments using EOs would produce more reliable results than those of the extracts. Based on the literature review and our experience, we suggest parameters to consider while determining antimicrobial properties of essential oils.","PeriodicalId":231643,"journal":{"name":"Reviews and Research in Medical Microbiology","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134322585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The balance between clinical need and resistance prevention is further compromised by agricultural antibiotic use as some countries have actively used colistin in animal production. Antimicrobial-resistant microorganisms have been found in humans, food, animals, plants, and the environment (water, soil, and air), and they can move between ecosystems. The problem of antimicrobial resistance is currently seen in the concept: One Health. This approach encourages interdisciplinary collaborative efforts that work locally. The beginnings of the mcr gene's presence in America dates to 2012 and the first report of disseminating the mcr-1 gene was described for Kelp gulls (Larus dominicanus) from Ushuaia, Argentina. It can be associated with the possible dissemination of the gene in the American continent through migratory birds. The mcr-1 gene is disseminated in countries, such as Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Colombia, Chile, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, and Venezuela and the mcr-3 and mcr-9.1 gene in Brazil and mcr-5 in Colombia and Paraguay. Given this context, we present a literature review on disseminating the mcr gene and its variants in South America in a One Health approach.","PeriodicalId":231643,"journal":{"name":"Reviews and Research in Medical Microbiology","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125249799","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many infectious agents such as Campylobacter jejuni (the most commonly identified bacteria associated with GBS), cytomegalovirus, Epstein–Barr virus, measles virus, influenza A virus, and Mycoplasma pneumonia, as well as enterovirus D68 and Zika virus and noninfectious agents such as vaccines and surgeries have been reported to trigger GBS. Three main variants of GBS include the classic acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP), which is the most common presentation of GBS, Miller Fisher syndrome, and the recently defined axon loss variants (acute motor axonal neuropathy and acute motor and sensory axonal neuropathy). One of the assumptions about the mechanisms of GBS is molecular mimicry, which is a process caused due to the structural resemblance between a microorganism and the host. The original concept of GBS is rooted in molecular mimicry defined as the similarity between the microorganisms’ peptide sequences or epitopes and ganglioside sequences or structures. Since the coronavirus disease-2019 outbreak in January 2020 there have been cases of GBS reported. Our review aims at providing an overview of some case reports of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2-related GBS.","PeriodicalId":231643,"journal":{"name":"Reviews and Research in Medical Microbiology","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133952675","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute and European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing have investigated colistin broth microdilution and offer particular recommendations, but this method has a challenging perform in routine daily practice. It is time consuming and requires ≥48 h. In this issue, several alternative rapid tests are developed such as ResaPolymyxin Acinetobacter/Pseudomonas NP. The sensitivity and specificity of 100% for the Rapid ResaPolymyxin Acinetobacter/Pseudomonas NP test to Enterobacterales have been reported. Colistin broth disk elution test and colistin agar test are another novel potential methods that were validated by the Clinical laboratory standard institutes subcommittee for colistin screening in the Enterobacterales and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In addition, recently, Rapid flow cytometry (FASTinov) method was introduced which requires only 2 h compared with conventional methods.
