TL;DR: A substantial portion of community-onset, ESBL-producing E. coli infections now occur among patients without discernible healthcare-associated risk factors in the United States, which has implications for the empiric management ofcommunity-associated infection when involvement of E. bacteria is suspected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inducible Clindamycin Resistance in Staphylococci: Should Clinicians and Microbiologists be Concerned?
TL;DR: Several newer antimicrobial agents and a few older agents are available for treatment of systemic staphylococcal infections, but use may be limited by the relatively high cost of these agents or the need for parenteral administration.
