The landscape of antibiotic resistance genes in the nasopharynx of preterm infants: Prolonged signature of hospitalization and effects by antibiotics
2023-08-10
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Respiratory pathogens, commonly colonizing nasopharynx, are among the leading causes of death due to antimicrobial resistance. Yet, antibiotic resistance determinants within nasopharyngeal microbial communities remain poorly understood. Utilizing shotgun metagenomics, we investigated the nasopharynx resistome development in preterm infants, assessed early antibiotic impact on its trajectory, and...
