This study shows that carbapenemase-producing CRE exhibit an inoculum effect, which can mislead susceptibility testing and highlights the need for improved detection methods.

The paper develops a method to trace horizontal gene transfer and persistence of carbapenem resistance genes across bacterial species using genomic data from clinical isolates.

The paper uses plasma proteomics to identify tissue-specific cell death and cell-cell interaction mediators in severe COVID-19 patients, linking them to survival outcomes and viral infection effects.
