TL;DR: In this article, a matched case-case-control investigation was conducted in a large veterinary hospital (2017-2019) in which 29 infected horses and donkeys were matched to 29 animals with third-generation cephalosporin-resistant enterobactorales (3GCSE) infections, and 29 uninfected controls (overall n = 87).

TL;DR: In this article , the authors focused on describing the epidemiology and microbiological characteristics of ESBL-E from equine patients of the Equine Veterinary Teaching Hospital of the University of Helsinki during 2011-2014, and analyzed putative risk factors for being positive for ESBL -E during an outbreak of Klebsiella pneumoniae ST307.

Does colonization with MRSA, ESBL – producing Enterobacteriaceae, and/or Acinetobacter baumannii – increase the risk for postoperative surgical site infection?
TL;DR: In this article , the role of indicator pathogens in equine surgical site infection (SSI) and other infection-promoting factors was evaluated in a cross-sectional study of 156 horses presenting with open injury or surgical colic during 1.5 years.

TL;DR: The evolution of virulence is linked to bacterial sex because rates of evolution have accelerated in pathogenic lineages, culminating in highly virulent organisms whose genomic contents are altered frequently by increased rates of homologous recombination.
