Fighting Antibiotic Resistance: Can Economic Incentives Play a Role?
Widespread reliance on antibiotics has spurred an alarming rise in resistant strains of bacteria, complicating the treatment of infectious diseases. Many blame the situation on doctors, patients, and livestock farmers who overuse, and sometimes even misuse antimicrobial agents.

Although the concept that commensal flora play a major role in disseminating bacterial resistance was developed at least 30 years ago, it was set aside for several reasons.

This challenge is transnational, its solution justifies coercion, tangible benefits are likely to be achieved, and other commitment mechanisms have thus far not been successful. Since addressing ABR depends on near-universal and interdependent collective action acr...
متن کاملP-glycoproteins play a role in ivermectin resistance in cyathostomins☆
Anthelmintic resistance is a global problem that threatens sustainable control of the equine gastrointestinal cyathostomins (Phylum Nematoda; Superfamily Strongyloidea). Of the three novel anthelmintic classes that have reached the veterinary market in the last decade, none are currently licenced in horses, hence current control regimens focus on prolonging the useful lifespan of licenced anthe...
متن کاملUrolithiasis – do ureaplasmas play a role in etiology.
Background and Objective: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by urease-producing organisms, including ureaplasmas may contribute to the formation of urolithiasis. We aimed to determine the frequency of U. parvum and U. urealyticum among urology hospital patients with urinary stones. Methods: The study group included 30 men with urolithiasis. Urine samples were examined routinely for bacte...
