Antibiotic resistance, bacterial transmission and improved prediction of bacterial infection in patients with antibody deficiency.

PMID 38098890 · 2023

The study identifies high levels of antibiotic resistance in respiratory tract bacteria from patients with antibody deficiency, particularly macrolide resistance genes erm(B) and mef(A), and highlights the role of commensal streptococci as reservoirs for resistance genes.
