    Resistance to clarithromycin, amoxicillin, metronidazole, levofloxacin and tetracycline was assessed by high-resolution melting curve. In conclusion, our data seem to show that, despite secondary resistances are not so high, a resistance to clarithromycin could be very likely related to previous exposure to this antibiotic.

    Bacterial and fungal infections were associated with higher rates of induction mortality and lower overall survival, and prophylaxis using fluconazole and levofloxacin did not present any significant difference in preventing these infections in this study, contrasting results found in the literature. The individuality of each treatment center should be taken into consideration and future studies should be realized to better determine the most effective methods and agents for prophylaxis.

In the hope of encouraging others to adopt this model, we have described the principles of the initiative, its strengths and weaknesses and next steps.

    We have previously studied the link between one of those systems (defined as HigBA) with specific expression patterns associated with levofloxacin antibiotic exposure...Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems play a significant role in bacterial persistence, a phenomenon where bacterial cells enter a dormant or slow-growing state to survive adverse conditions such as nutrient deprivation, antibiotic exposure, or host immune responses. By studying TA systems in Burkholderia pseudomallei, we can gain insights into how this pathogen survives and persists in the host environment, contributing to its virulence and ability to cause melioidosis chronic infections.
