Wayne State University's Center for Emerging and Infectious Diseases (CEID) is launching its participation in World AMR Awareness Week with an urgent message: the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance requires immediate community action, so it is critical to educate, advocate, and act now.
Since older adults have been more severely affected by acute COVID-19, researchers have hypothesized that older adults may have worse long COVID symptoms as well.
Since older adults have been more severely affected by acute COVID-19, researchers have hypothesized that older adults may have worse long COVID symptoms as well. But according to new research published in the Annals of Neurology, an official journal of the American Neurological Association, Northwestern Medicine researchers found on an average of 10 months after COVID-19 onset, younger (ages 18-44) and middle-aged (ages 45-64) adults had worse neurologic symptoms of long COVID than adults 65 and older. Symptoms included headache, numbness and tingling, problems with smell and taste, blurred vision, depression, anxiety, insomnia, fatigue and a decrease in cognitive function. These symptoms occurred regardless of if the patient had mild or severe COVID-19 infections.
According to the CDC, a severe case of monkeypox has been confirmed in California. This is the first known case of the clade 1 strain in the United States. ...
Sobre la base de trabajos anteriores, los investigadores de ACS Infectious Diseases han demostrado un posible tratamiento antibacteriano a partir de una darobactina modificada, un compuesto originario de una bacteria. El equipo informa de pruebas de concepto en animales con infecciones causadas por bacterias, entre ellas, E. coli, conocidas por desarrollar farmacorresistencia.
In work published in Nature, researchers鈥 structural insights help reveal a weak spot in malaria鈥檚 plan of attack which could help guide vaccine design.
Building on previous work, researchers in ACS Infectious Diseases have demonstrated a potential antibacterial treatment from a modified darobactin, a compound originally from a bacterium. The team reports proof-of-concept animal trials on infections caused by bacteria, including E. coli, that are known to develop drug resistance.

Researchers have found that some coronavirus genes don鈥檛 produce a working protein, but nevertheless appear evolutionarily advantageous. Their work investigating how these mystery genes evolve could help forecast which viral variants might be more dangerous.

La influenza puede ser una enfermedad desagradable de una semana de duraci贸n y un inconveniente para muchas personas, pero puede tener consecuencias graves para los adultos mayores.
The rod-shaped tuberculosis (TB) bacterium, which the World Health Organization has once again ranked as the top infectious disease killer globally, is the first single-celled organism ever observed to maintain a consistent growth rate throughout its life cycle. These findings, reported by researchers on November 15 in the journal Nature Microbiology, overturn core beliefs of bacterial cell biology and hint at why the deadly pathogen so readily outmaneuvers our immune system and antibiotics.
