Journal ArticleDOI
Will 10 Million People Die a Year due to Antimicrobial Resistance by 2050
TL;DR: Marlieke de Kraker and colleagues reflect on the need for better global estimates for the burden of antimicrobial resistance and suggest that more needs to be done to estimate this burden.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mortality and Hospital Stay Associated with Resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli Bacteremia: Estimating the Burden of Antibiotic Resistance in Europe
TL;DR: The authors calculate excess mortality, excess hospital stay, and related hospital expenditure associated with antibiotic-resistant bacterial bloodstream infections (Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli) in Europe.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Irrespective of methicillin susceptibility, S. aureus BSI has a significant impact on morbidity and mortality and in addition, MRSA BSI leads to a fatal outcome more frequently than MSSA B SI.

TL;DR: In Europe, improvement of national antimicrobial resistance surveillance systems and better alignment between human and veterinary surveillance systems in Europe must become a scientific and political priority, coordinated with international stakeholders within a global approach to reduce the burden of antimicrobial resistant bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in invasive isolates from southern and eastern Mediterranean countries
Michael Borg,Marlieke E. A. de Kraker,E. Scicluna,Nienke van de Sande-Bruinsma,E Tiemersma,J. Monen,Hajo Grundmann +6 more
TL;DR: It appears that most of the countries in the Mediterranean region are experiencing a surge in MRSA infections, which requires a greater focus to identify relevant drivers of resistance and implement effective practices in order to address them, especially improved infection control and antibiotic consumption practices.
