Abstract

Huaxiibacter chinensis is a recently proposed Enterobacteriaceae species with few public genomes. We report the draft genome of urinary isolate 195099, carrying multiple resistance genes, including blaNDM-5, documenting a carbapenem-resistant clinical isolate of this uncommon species.

Risk factors associated with urinary tract infection within 4 days of male rectal cancer surgery in the era of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programs.

BACKGROUND: Bladder drainage is systematically used in rectal cancer surgery in male patients, even in the era of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). However, little data is available on risk factors for urinary tract infection (UTI). Identifying the risk factors associated with UTI within 4 days of male rectal cancer surgery in an ERAS program could support more individualized decision-making. METHODS: We used data from the GRECCAR 10 randomized clinical trial, a comparison of outcomes of transurethral catheterization (TUC) or suprapubic catheterization (SPC). 240 patients were randomized, 209 retained in the study (TUC n = 99; SPC n = 109). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression post-hoc study analyses were performed to assess association between potential predictive factors and UTI within 30 days after surgery. RESULTS: Out of 208 patients (median age 64.5 years), 19 (9.1%) had UTI, 26 (12.5%) had bacteriuria and 145 (69.7%) had pyuria. Univariate analysis identified age ≥ 65 years (OR = 3.08 [1.07-8.89]; p = 0.038), hypertension (OR = 3.65 [1.23-10.84]; p = 0.020) and ASA score ≥ 3 (OR = 4.15 [1.53-11.2]; p = 0.005) as risk factors for UTI until POD4. Multivariate analysis identified ASA score ≥ 3 with a risk of UTI. CONCLUSION: Regarding male rectal cancer surgery, our study shows that nearly 1 in 10 patients had UTI within 4 days. An ASA score ≥ 3 is an independent risk factor linked to UTI. Identifying this risk factor for UTI is necessary to advise patients, support a tailored decision-making process, and prevent these complications.

Complicated urinary tract infections: evolving definitions, clinical burden, and treatment landscape amid antimicrobial resistance.

INTRODUCTION: Complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI) is a common and heterogeneous infection associated with substantial morbidity, high healthcare utilization, and increasing antimicrobial resistance. Evolving definitions, increasing device use, and changing patient populations have altered its epidemiology and management. Marked variability in diagnostic criteria, clinical trial endpoints within and outside registrational settings, and treatment strategies complicates clinical decision-making and interpretation of therapeutic advances. AREAS COVERED: This review examines contemporary cUTI epidemiology, classification frameworks, and drivers of disease burden. It evaluates resistance trends and their therapeutic implications, alongside stewardship-based management strategies, including empiric antibiotic selection, intravenous-to-oral transition, treatment duration, and source control. Challenges in catheter-associated infection, recurrence, and regulatory endpoint design are discussed, together with the emerging role of novel agents targeting resistant Gram-negative pathogens. EXPERT OPINION: Rising multidrug resistance and limited oral options are reshaping cUTI management, necessitating individualized, stewardship-aligned therapy guided by illness severity and local epidemiology. Current regulatory endpoints inadequately reflect patient-centered outcomes, particularly in the context of asymptomatic bacteriuria. Expanding availability of effective oral agents may enable earlier discharge and outpatient care. Integration of rapid diagnostics and risk stratification will be essential to optimize therapy, limit resistance, and improve outcomes.

Flexible ureteroscopy with a flexible and negative suction ureteral access sheath versus traditional sheath for treatment of infectious upper urinary tract stones: A prospective, randomized controlled study.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the flexible ureteroscopy (fURS) with a flexible and negative suction ureteral access sheath (FANS) versus traditional sheath for patients with infectious upper urinary tract stones (IUUTS). A total of 185 patients were enrolled, with 93 assigned to the FANS group and 92 to the traditional UAS group. The primary outcome was the stone-free rate (SFR) at the first postoperative day. Secondary outcomes included the SFR at 30 days postoperatively, operative time, hemoglobin reduction, length of hospital stay, quality of life (QoL) improvement, incidence of ureteral stricture at 3 months, and surgery-related complications. No significant differences were observed between the two groups in baseline demographics or preoperative clinical characteristics (P > 0.05). The FANS group had significantly lower white blood cell count, C-reactive protein, and procalcitonin levels at 6 and 24 h postoperatively (all P < 0.05). Mean operative time was significantly shorter (P < 0.001), QoL improvement was obviously greater (P < 0.001), and average hospital stay was shorter in the FANS group (P < 0.001). The SFRs on postoperative day 1 and at 30 days were both significantly higher in the FANS group (both P < 0.05). At 3 months, ureteral strictures occurred in three patients in the traditional UAS group and one in the FANS group, a difference that was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). The overall complication rate was significantly lower in the FANS group (P < 0.05). For patients with IUUTS, fURS combined with FANS effectively improves stone clearance efficiency and reduces the risk of postoperative infection.
