Worldwide emergence of colistin resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae from healthy humans and patients in Lao PDR, Thailand, Israel, Nigeria and France owing to inactivation of the PhoP/PhoQ regulator mgrB: an epidemiological and molecular study.
Abiola Olumuyiwa Olaitan,Seydina M. Diene,Marie Kempf,Meryem Berrazeg,Sofiane Bakour,Sushim K. Gupta,Boupha Thongmalayvong,Kongsap Akkhavong,Silaphet Somphavong,Phimpha Paboriboune,Kittipong Chaisiri,Chalit Komalamisra,Olawale Olufemi Adelowo,O. E. Fagade,Omowunmi Abosede Banjo,Adeyeye James Oke,Amos Adler,Marc V. Assous,Serge Morand,Didier Raoult,Jean-Marc Rolain +20 more
TL;DR: Inactivation of the PhoP/PhoQ regulator gene mgrB is associated with ≥40% of colistin resistance among the CRKP isolates observed in this study, which is warranted to prevent an uncontrollable pandemic.

Characterization of OXA-48-like-producing Enterobacteriaceae isolated from river water in Algeria.
TL;DR: This study showed the presence of OXA-48-like-producing Enterobacteriaceae in water environments and highlighted the potential role of aquatic environments as reservoirs of clinically relevant antimicrobial-resistant bacteria, with the potential to spread throughout the community.

Prevalence and clonal relationship of ESBL-producing Salmonella strains from humans and poultry in northeastern Algeria.
Samia Djeffal,Sofiane Bakour,Bakir Mamache,Rachid Elgroud,Amir Agabou,Selma Chabou,S. Hireche,Omar Bouaziz,Kheira Rahal,Jean-Marc Rolain +9 more
TL;DR: The results of the combined phenotypic and genotypic analysis found in this study suggest a close relationship between human and avian strains and support the hypothesis that poultry production may play a role in the spread of multidrug-resistant Salmonella in the human community within the study region.
Emergence of Carbapenem-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii Clinical Isolates Collected from Some Libyan Hospitals

TL;DR: The first case of co-occurrence of blaVIM-2 with oprD porin loss in identical isolates of P. aeruginosa and A. baumannii in Libya is reported and it is demonstrated that these OprD mutations can be used as a tool to study the clonality in P.aeruginose isolates.
