Projecting the development of antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae from antimicrobial surveillance data: a mathematical modelling study

Julien Riou et al.

Summary: This study used data and mathematical models to project the time until gonorrhea-causing bacteria develop resistance to commonly used antibiotics, and found that the susceptibility to the last remaining treatment option, ceftriaxone, is decreasing. The study concludes that new treatment options are needed, and emphasizes the importance of monitoring and managing antimicrobial use.

PivNG primers and probes set used in the cobas omni Utility Channel is a reliable supplemental test for detection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in oropharyngeal, urogenital and rectal specimens collected in cobas PCR Media

Mark Hopkins et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the clinical performance of the novel PivNG primers and probes set (PivNG test) used in the cobas omni Utility Channel for supplemental testing of Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG). The results showed that PivNG is a reliable supplementary test with high sensitivity for confirming NG infection when used in conjunction with the cobas CT/NG test and samples collected in cobas PCR Media.

WHO global antimicrobial resistance surveillance for Neisseria gonorrhoeae 2017-18: a retrospective observational study

Magnus Unemo et al.

Summary: Global surveillance of gonorrhoea and antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae is essential, with data from 2017-18 showing emerging resistance to ceftriaxone, cefixime, azithromycin, and ciprofloxacin. Surveillance has increased since 2015-16, but remains scarce in certain regions. Priorities include improved prevention, early diagnosis, treatment, surveillance, and the development of new antimicrobials and diagnostic tests.
