Journal ArticleDOI

Vaccine escape recombinants emerge after pneumococcal vaccination in the United States.

TL;DR: This is the first time a single recombinational event has been documented in vivo that resulted in both a change of serotype and penicillin nonsusceptibility, and has the potential to reduce PCV7 effectiveness in the longer term.
Journal ArticleDOI

Within-host evolution of bacterial pathogens

TL;DR: How whole-genome sequencing studies have advanced understanding of the mechanisms and principles of within-host genome evolution is described, and the consequences of findings such as a potent adaptive potential for pathogenicity are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediction of Susceptibility to First-Line Tuberculosis Drugs by DNA Sequencing.

Caroline Allix-Béguec, +90 more
TL;DR: Genotypic predictions of the susceptibility of M. tuberculosis to first‐line drugs were found to be correlated with phenotypic susceptibility to these drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Temporal and Geographic Stability of the Serogroup-Specific Invasive Disease Potential of Streptococcus pneumoniae in Children

TL;DR: There was a significant inverse correlation between invasive disease and carriage prevalence for the serotypes that were considered, which implies that the most invasive serotypes and serogroups were the least commonly carried and that the least frequently carried were the most likely to cause invasive disease.
