Six-year progression of medically treated infective aortitis
CONCLUSIONS: Infective aortitis with mycotic aneurysms is usually treated surgically due to the significant risk of rupture in the acute period. This case suggests that if the acute infective period is passed, the aneurysmal disease stabilises and does not progress.PMID:38626935 | DOI:10.1177/17085381241248724 (Source: Vascular)

TiO < sub > 2 < /sub > Nanorod Decorated with MoS < sub > 2 < /sub > Nanospheres: An Efficient Dual-functional Photocatalyst for Antibiotic Degradation and Hydrogen Production
This article presents the engineering of a binary heterostructured photocatalyst by combining TiO2 (nanorods) and MoS2 nanosphere using a straightforward solvothermal method and the assessment of the phase structures, morphologies, and optical properties of the resulting nanocomposites using diverse analytical techniques. The TiO2(Rod)/MoS2 composite exhibits remarkable efficacy in degrading ciprofloxacin, achieving 93% removal rate within one hour, which is four times higher than that of bare TiO2. Moreover, the optimized TiO2(Rod)/MoS2 presents an outstanding hydrogen production rate of 7415 μmol g-1, which is ∼24 tim...

Interaction of beauvericin in combination with antibiotics against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella typhimurium
Toxicon. 2024 Apr 12:107713. doi: 10.1016/j.toxicon.2024.107713. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMultidrug resistance in bacteria is a major challenge worldwide, increasing both mortality by infections and costs for the health systems. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to find new drugs against resistant bacteria. Beauvericin (BEA) is a mycotoxin produced by entomopathogenic and other fungi of the genus Fusarium. Our work determines the effect of BEA combined with antibiotics, which has not been previously explored. The combination analysis included different antibiotics against non-methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus a...

Emerging threats of high biofilm formation and antibiotic resistance in clinical methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates from Pakistan
CONCLUSIONS: Clinical MRSA strains exhibit a substantial potential for biofilm formation, contributing to a resistant phenotype.
