ABSTRACTMetallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) represent one of the main causes of carbapenem resistance in the order Enterobacterales. To combat MBL-producing carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales, the development of MBL inhibitors can restore carbapenem effi

Neurons in visual area V4 modulate their responses depending on the figure-ground (FG) organization in natural images containing a variety of shapes and textures. To clarify whether the responses depend on the extents of the figure and ground regions

ABSTRACTβ-Lactam antibiotics are first-line agents for the treatment and prevention of group B Streptococcus (GBS) infections. We previously reported clinical GBS isolates with reduced β-lactam susceptibility (GBS-RBS) and characterized them as har

ABSTRACT Production of metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs), which hydrolyze carbapenems, is a cause of carbapenem resistance in Enterobacteriaceae. Development of effective inhibitors for MBLs is one approach to restore carbapenem efficacy in carbapenem-res

Segmentation of a natural scene into objects and background is a fundamental but challenging task for recognizing objects. Investigating intermediate-level visual cortical areas with a focus on local information is a crucial step towards understandin

The visual area V4 has been considered to play a crucial role in the intermediate representation of objects, where low-level image features are transformed into object-level representations. We estimated the intrinsic dimensionality in V4 for the rep

The Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC) is one of the most common causes of bacteremia and leads to poor clinical outcomes. The aim of this study was to clarify the antimicrobial susceptibility profiles and genetic backgrounds of non-carbapenemase-pro

Group B streptococci (GBS; Streptococcus agalactiae) are the leading cause of neonatal invasive diseases and are also important pathogens for elderly adults. Until now, nearly all GBS with reduced penicillin susceptibility (PRGBS) have shown β-hemol

We used 73 group B Streptococcus with reduced penicillin susceptibility (PRGBS) isolates and determined more rational cutoff values of previously developed disk diffusion method for detecting PRGBS using oxacillin, ceftizoxime, and ceftibuten disks.
