Quantifying antibiotic impact on within-host dynamics of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase resistance in hospitalized patients
2019-02-15
Abstract excerpt
Antibiotic exposure can perturb the human gut microbiome and cause changes in the within-host abundance of the genetic determinants of drug-resistance in bacteria. Such within-host dynamics are expected to play an important role in mediating the relationship between antibiotic use and persistence of drug-resistance within a host and its prevalence within a population. Developing a quantitative representation of th...
