Epidemiology of Carbapenemase-Producing E. coli by Néstor Herrera is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This study investigates the international epidemiology of carbapenemase-producing Escherichia coli (CP-Ec), highlighting significant geographic variations and clinical outcomes associated with metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) and non-MBL strains. Among 114 isolates, 49 harbored MBLs, predominantly found in China, with MBL-Ec showing lower acuity of illness and better 30-day outcomes compared to non-MBL-Ec. The findings underscore the public health threat posed by CP-Ec and the need for tailored treatment strategie
