Genomic analysis of non-carbapenem drug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria from advanced chronic liver disease (ACLD) patients suggests no evidence for in-house transmissions
NCR-DRGN are prevalent in ACLD patients, with <i>E. coli</i> as the dominant pathogen. Standard hygiene measures appear effective in preventing transmission, emphasizing the importance of routine screening and infection control in this high-risk population.
