Phase angle is associated with length of hospital stay, readmissions, mortality, and falls in patients hospitalized in internal-medicine wards : a retrospective cohort study

Del Giorno, Rosaria ; Quarenghi, Massimo ; Stefanelli, Kevyn ; Rigamonti, Alice ; Stanglini, Carlotta ; De Vecchi, Valentina ; Gabutti, Luca

In: Nutrition, 2021, vol. 85, no. May, p. 7 p

The aim of this study was to investigate the predictive value of bioimpedance phase angle (PA) on selected clinical outcomes in patients hospitalized in internal-medicine wards. This was a retrospective observational study of 168 patients admitted to the internalmedicine service (52.9% women, 47.1% men), with a mean (± SD) age of 73.9 ± 15.9 y. Anthropometric examination, laboratory tests,...

Colistin resistance in Parisian inpatient faecal Escherichia coli as the result of two distinct evolutionary pathways

Bourrel, Anne Sophie ; Poirel, Laurent ; Royer, Guilhem ; Darty, Mélanie ; Vuillemin, Xavier ; Kieffer, Nicolas ; Clermont, Olivier ; Denamur, Erick ; Nordmann, Patrice ; Decousser, Jean-Winoc ; The IAME Resistance Group

In: Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2019, vol. 74, no. 6, p. 1521–1530

Beyond plasmid-encoded resistance (mcr genes) prevalence in strain collections, large epidemiological studies to estimate the human burden of colistin-resistant Escherichia coli gut carriage are lacking.Objectives: To evaluate the prevalence of colistin-resistant E. coli carriage in inpatients and decipher the molecular support of resistance and the genetic background of the strains.Methods:...

Vitis methods to understand and develop strategies for diagnosis and sustainable control of grapevine trunk diseases

Reis, P. ; Pierron, R. ; Larignon, P. ; Lecomte, P. ; Abou-Mansour, Eliane ; Farine, S. ; Bertsch, C. ; Jacques, A. ; Trotel-Aziz, P. ; Rego, C. ; Fontaine, F.

In: Phytopathology, 2019, vol. 109, no. 6, p. 916–931

Vitis vinifera is affected by many diseases every year, depending on causal agents, susceptibility of cultivars, and climate region. Some are caused by a single agent, such as gray mold caused by Botrytis cinerea or powdery mildew caused by Erysiphe necator. Others result from the actions of a complex of pathogens such as grapevine trunk diseases (GTDs). GTDs are presently among the most...

Efficiency of different control measures for preventing carbapenemase-producing enterobacteria and glycopeptide-resistant Enterococcus faecium outbreaks: a 6-year prospective study in a French multihospital institution, January 2010 to December 2015

Fournier, Sandra ; Desenfant, Laure ; Monteil, Catherine ; Nion-Huang, Michèle ; Richard, Christian ; Jarlier, Vincent ; AP-HP Outbreaks Control Group

In: Eurosurveillance, 2018, vol. 23, no. 8, p. 17–00078

An infection control programme was implemented in a 21,000-bed multihospital institution for controlling the spread of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) and glycopeptide-resistant Enterococcus faecium (GRE), classified as ‘emergent extensively drug-resistant bacteria’ (eXDR) in France. We evaluated factors associated with outbreaks occurrence (n = 103), which followed 901...

Bacillus subtilis PTA-271 counteracts Botryosphaeria dieback in grapevine, triggering immune responses and detoxification of fungal phytotoxins

Trotel-Aziz, Patricia ; Abou-Mansour, Eliane ; Courteaux, Barbara ; Rabenoelina, Fanja ; Clément, Christophe ; Fontaine, Florence ; Aziz, Aziz

In: Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019, vol. 10, p. -

Plant pathogens have evolved various strategies to enter hosts and cause diseases. Particularly Neofusicoccum parvum, a member of Botryosphaeria dieback consortium, can secrete the phytotoxins (-)-terremutin and (R)-mellein during grapevine colonization. The contribution of phytotoxins to Botryosphaeria dieback symptoms still remains unknown. Moreover, there are currently no efficient control...
