A Case Report of Salmonella enterica Meningitis in an Infant: A Rare Entity not to Forget
CONCLUSION: Invasive Salmonella diseases, such as meningitis, are very uncommon in industrial countries nowadays, and the optimal management is yet not well established. Late onset of com-plications from Salmonella meningitis warrants more thorough neurodevelopmental follow-ups.PMID:38676483 | DOI:10.2174/0118715265286206240402050756 (Source: Infectious Disorders Drug Targets)

PCR-positive meningococcal CSF infection without pleocytosis but high IL-6 and IL-8
ConclusionsWe present a rare case of meningococcal infection of the CSF in a SLE patient without further CSF abnormalities. We discuss the involvement of early antibiotic treatment and the role of the patient ’s immune status in the normal CSF findings of this case. Moreover, this case demonstrates the importance of early antibiotic therapy in bacterial meningitis for the clinical outcome. (Source: Infection)

Sphingobium yanoikuyae Bacteremia, Japan
We report a case of Sphingobium yanoikuyae bacteremia in an 89-year-old patient in Japan. No standard antimicrobial regimen has been established for S. yanoikuyae infections. However, ceftriaxone and ceftazidime treatments were effective in this case. Increased antimicrobial susceptibility data are needed to establish appropriate treatments for S. yanoikuyae.PMID:38666619 | DOI:10.3201/eid3005.231514 (Source: Emerging Infectious Diseases)

Characterization of Ceftriaxone-Resistant < em > Haemophilus influenzae < /em > Among Korean Children
CONCLUSION: The emergence of ceftriaxone-resistant H. influenzae with ceftriaxone MIC values of up to 0.75 mg/L was observed even in children in South Korea, with most associated with S385T and L389F substitutions. The N526K mutation alone does not significantly impact ceftriaxone resistance. Further large-scale studies are essential to investigate changes in antibiotic resistance patterns and factors influencing antibiotic resistance in H. influenzae isolated from pediatric patients in Korea.PMID:38651222 | DOI:10.3346/jkms.2024.39.e136 (Source: Journal of Korean Medical Science)

Dissemination of IncC plasmids in Salmonella enterica serovar Thompson recovered from seafood and human diarrheic patients in China
In conclusion, to our knowledge, it is the first report of the co-existence of blaCMY-2, qnrS, and qepA in IncC plasmids, and the conjugational transfer contributed to their dissemination in S. Thompson. These findings underline further challenges for the prevention and treatment of Enterobacteriaceae infections posed by IncC plasmids bearing blaCMY-2, qnrS, and qepA.PMID:38653121 | DOI:10.1016/j.ijfoodmicro.2024.110708 (Source: International Journal of Food Microbiology)
