Antimicrobial resistome of coagulase-negative staphylococci from nasotracheal cavities of nestlings of Ciconia ciconia in Southern Spain: Detection of mecC-SCCmec  type-XI-carrying S. lentus
This study demonstrated that most of the CoNS isolates were susceptible to all the antibiotics tested (63.1%). However, AMR genes of public health importance were found, including the mecC-mediated methicillin resistance trait.PMID:37453201 | DOI:10.1016/j.cimid.2023.102012 (Source: Comparative immunology, microbiology and infectious diseases.)

Antibiotic susceptibility and clonal distribution of Staphylococcus aureus from pediatric skin and soft tissue infections: 10-year trends in multicenter investigation in China
ConclusionThe antibiotic sensitivity and molecular characteristics of S. aureus from pediatric SSTIs has changed significantly over the past decade. To standardize medical care, provide timely and reasonable clinical treatment, and effectively manage infection control, Chinese pediatric SSTIs guidelines are urgently needed.

Associated Outcomes of Different Intravenous Antibiotics Combined with 2% Mupirocin Ointment in the Treatment of Pediatric Patients with Staphylococcal Scalded Skin Syndrome
CONCLUSION: Oxacillin resistance was rare, and clindamycin resistance was high in pediatric patients with SSSS in our district. Intravenous amoxicillin-clavulanic acid and cefuroxime combined with topical mupirocin were favorable due to a shorter intravenous treatment course and lower costs. Younger age, elevated WBC count, and CRP levels could indicate a longer course of treatment with intravenous antibiotics.PMID:37404367 | PMC:PMC10315143 | DOI:10.2147/CCID.S417764 (Source: Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology)
