Evaluating the use of whole-genome sequencing for outbreak investigations in the lack of closely related reference genome.

TL;DR: This study assessed the use of WGS in investigating an outbreak of a relatively understudied bacterial pathogen with no publicly available closely related reference genome and demonstrated that the Bcc outbreak isolates were closely related and were phylogenetically distinct from the 11 publically available Bcc genomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Early detection of extended-spectrum β-lactamase from blood culture positive for an Enterobacteriaceae using βLACTA test

TL;DR: Bacterial pellets from Enterobacteriaceae positive blood cultures prepared using ammonium chloride were tested for rapid detection of β-lactamase using the commercial βLACTA test and read after 30 minutes, exhibiting a sensitivity and specificity of 75% and 100% for the detection of third-generation cephalosporin resistance.
Journal Article

[SARS-CoV-2, a point in the storm]

TL;DR: An update of the knowledge currently available about the SARS-CoV-2 virus and its clinical manifestations, which is still little known today.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Titers Predict the Severity of COVID-19

TL;DR: Serology testing at admission may be a good indicator to identify severe COVID-19 patients who will require invasive mechanical ventilation and serology performed well in predicting the necessity of invasive ventilation.
