Antibiotic resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex in Africa : a systematic review of current reports of molecular epidemiology, mechanisms and diagnostics

Osei Sekyere, John; Reta, Melese Abate; Maningi, Nontuthuko Excellent; Fourie, P.B. (Petrus Bernardus) (Elsevier, 2019-12)

BACKGROUND : Tuberculosis (TB) remains a main global public health problem. However, a systematic review of TB resistance epidemiology in Africa is wanting. METHODS : A comprehensive systematic search of PubMed, Web of ...
Diversity and proliferation of metallo-β-lactamases : a clarion call for clinically effective metallo-β-lactamase inhibitors

Somboro, Anou M.; Osei Sekyere, John; Amoako, Daniel G.; Essack, Sabiha Y.; Bester, Linda A. (American Society for Microbiology, 2018-09)

The worldwide proliferation of life-threatening metallo-β-lactamase (MBLs)-producing Gram-negative bacteria is a serious concern to public health. MBLs are compromising the therapeutic efficacies of β-lactams, particularly ...
Genomic and resistance epidemiology of gram-negative bacteria in Africa : a systematic review and phylogenomic analyses from a one health perspective

Osei Sekyere, John; Reta, Melese Abate (American Society for Microbiology, 2020-11-24)

Antibiotic resistance (AR) remains a major threat to public and animal health globally. However, AR ramifications in developing countries are worsened by limited molecular diagnostics, expensive therapeutics, inadequate ...
Part VII : Interventions

Visser, Adele; Moore, D.P.; Whitelaw, Andrew; Lowman, W.; Kantor, G.; Hoosen, Anwar Ahmed; Madhi, Shabir A.; Brink, A.; Van den Bergh, D.; Devenish, L.; Moodley, P.; Apalata, T.; Duse, A.G.; Gelband, H. (Health and Medical Publishing Group, 2011-08)

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) surveillance activities in South Africa have been described in Part V of this report. Surveillance – knowing the levels of resistance and the trends around the country and in different ...
Pathogenomics and evolutionary epidemiology of multi-drug resistant clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from Pretoria, South Africa

Mbelle, Nontombi Marylucy; Feldman, Charles; Osei Sekyere, John; Maningi, Nontuthuko Excellent; Modipane, Lesedi; Essack, Sabiha Yusuf (Nature Publishing Group, 2020)

Antibiotic-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae is increasingly being implicated in invasive infections worldwide with high mortalities. Forty-two multidrug resistant (MDR) K. pneumoniae isolates were collected over a 4-month ...
Prevalence of blaSHV, blaTEM and blaCTX-M antibiotic resistance genes in selected bacterial pathogens from the Pretoria Academic Hospital

Hoosen, Anwar Ahmed; Ehlers, Marthie Magdaleen; Veldsman, C.; Makgotlho, Phuti Edward; Kock, Marleen M.; Dove, Mike G.; Creative Studios, Dept of Education Innovation, University of Pretoria (2008-10-23)

Extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) are considered one of the most important antibiotic resistance mechanisms. Multidrug resistance is emerging in many Gram-negative pathogens and is associated with severe nosocomial ...
Prevalence of ESBL and MBL antibiotic resistance genes in Klebsiella pneumoniae in Pretoria Academic Hospital

Ehlers, Marthie Magdaleen; Hoosen, Anwar Ahmed; Omar, Shaheed Vally; Maningi, Nontuthuko Excellent; Makgothlo, E.; Kock, Marleen M.; Creative Studios, Dept of Education Innovation, University of Pretoria (2008-12-09)

Extended-spectrum-beta-lactamases (ESBL) have been recovered from medical centres in South Africa since the late 1980’s but little is known about the various types of ESBLs present and their prevalence. Metallo-beta-lactamase ...
Risk factors for, and molecular epidemiology and clinical outcomes of, carbapenem- and polymyxin-resistant Gram-negative bacterial infections in pregnant women, infants, and toddlers : a systematic review and meta-analyses

Osei Sekyere, John; Reta, Melese Abate; Fourie, P.B. (Petrus Bernardus) (Wiley, 2021-10)
