Quantifying the bystander effect of antimicrobial use on the diversity and resistome of the gut microbiome in Malawian adults

2025-04-04

Abstract excerpt

Antibiotic treatment for sepsis has an unintended yet crucial consequence: it exerts a bystander effect on the microbiome, changing its bacterial composition and resistome. Antimicrobial stewardship aims, in part, to minimise this effect to prevent development of subsequent drug-resistant infection, but data evaluating and quantifying these changes are largely lacking, especially in low-income settings which are d...
