Resistance is futile: the bacteriocin model for addressing the antibiotic resistance challenge
Margaret A. Riley,Sandra M. Robinson,Christopher M. Roy,Morgan Dennis,Vivian Liu,Robert L. Dorit +5 more
TL;DR: A new paradigm in antibiotic discovery and development is proposed, one that applies ecological and evolutionary theory to design antimicrobial drugs that are more difficult and/or more costly to resist.

Effect of Inactivation of the Global Oxidative Stress Regulator oxyR on the Colonization Ability of Escherichia coli O1:K1:H7 in a Mouse Model of Ascending Urinary Tract Infection
TL;DR: The findings indicate that oxyR is a broadly prevalent potential target for future preventive interventions against UTI due to E. coli UTI and that the major oxidative stresses against which OxyR protects E. Escherichia coli within the host milieu are not phagocyte derived.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence of Antibiotic-Resistant Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Clonal Group A in Wastewater Effluents
TL;DR: The occurrence of “human-type” E. coli CGA in wastewater effluents demonstrates a potential mode for the dissemination of this clonal group in the environment, with possible secondary transmission to new human or animal hosts.

Diagnosis and treatment of uncomplicated urinary tract infection
Thomas M. Hooton,Walter E. Stamm +1 more
TL;DR: The optimal treatment duration for acute uncomplicated pyelonephritis has not been established, but 10- to 14-day regimens are recommended, and patients prefer to use antimicrobials that attain high renal tissue levels, such as a fluoroquinolone, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, or an aminoglycoside for pyel onephritis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increasing prevalence of antimicrobial resistance among uropathogens causing acute uncomplicated cystitis in women.
TL;DR: While the prevalence of resistance to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, ampicillin, and cephalothin increased significantly among uropathogens causing acute cystitis, resistance to nitrofurantoin and ciprofloxacin remained infrequent.
