Temporal burden of WHO Critical-priority Enterobacteriaceae in the infant gut during early life influenced by maternal postpartum antibiotic exposure
These findings highlight that cephalosporin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae colonize the infant gut as early as 6-weeks, with maternal postpartum antibiotic exposure playing a significant role. Understanding these early-life drivers of AMR could help inform strategies to mitigate AMR spread in vulnerable populations.
