Molecular and Pathological Characterization of Cervicovaginal Specimens Evince Significant Protection Against HPV Infections, Bacterial Vaginosis, and Epithelial Cell Abnormalities by Lactobacillus species

The paper analyzes cervicovaginal specimens to show that Lactobacillus species, particularly L. crispatus, protect against HPV infections, bacterial vaginosis, and epithelial abnormalities.

Plasmid-borne mcr-1 and Replicative Transposition of Episomal and Chromosomal blaNDM-1, blaOXA-69, and blaOXA-23 Carbapenemases in a Clinical Acinetobacter baumannii Isolate

The paper characterizes the genetic resistance mechanisms in a multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolate, identifying plasmid-borne mcr-1 and chromosomal carbapenemase genes linked to replicative transposition and genomic plasticity.

Molecular Characterization of Vaginal Microbiota Using a New 22-Species qRT-PCR Test to Achieve a Relative-abundance and Species-based Diagnosis of Bacterial Vaginosis

This paper develops a qRT-PCR test targeting 22 BV-associated species and uses it to create a diagnostic index that classifies vaginal microbiome states into BV-positive, BV-negative, or transitional BV.

Genomic, Epigenomic, and Transcriptional Characterisation of Carbapenem and Colistin Resistance Mechanisms in Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter species.

This study characterizes genomic, epigenomic, and transcriptional resistance mechanisms in carbapenem and colistin-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter isolates.
