    Abstract Patients colonized with antibiotic resistant bacteria are at risk of infections and spontaneous decolonization delays are highly variable between patients. The management of these patients is therefore time-consuming; requires patient isolation, and cohort policies. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has been used with the aim of shortening this gut colonization. Here, we proposed a comprehensive literature review on FMT utilization for gut antibiotics resistant bacteria decolonization. After literature research through Pubmed indexed for MEDLINE, we analyzed 23 studies with description of FMT utilization and analyze of gut decolonization. In total, the data involved 197 patients, 153 of whom underwent FMT. Overall, 66.7% (102/153) of the patients were decolonized after FMT. However, we noticed a lot of interpretation bias, such as variation in colonization definition and high disparities in FMT administration modalities. Two disparities were of special interest: repeated FMT seems to increase the effectiveness of decolonization, and gut decolonization with antibiotics before FMT was proposed by some authors, but with too few studies to draw a conclusion. Overall, the use of FMT is a promising perspective for intestinal decolonization, but it requires greater standardization.

    Abstract Background: Schistosomiasis is an endemic parasitic infection found in many tropical countries and is highly prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa. It can follow different and atypical clinical patterns. In these unusual cases, diagnosis may be difficult, as symptoms are unspecific. Arthropathy can appear in parasitic infections, but making a connection between arthritis and parasitic aetiology is difficult. This review aims to summarise all cases that have reported schistosomiasis associated with arthropathy, and the different ways authors have diagnosed this disease.
    Method: We present a systematic literature review of schistosomiasis associated with joint impairments, with a focus on the difficulty of differentiating between reactive arthritis and its parasitic presence in situ.
    Results: Joint impairments mimicking polyarthropathy are not rare in parasitic infections. Diagnosis is difficult. On the one hand, some patients have arthritis with parasite eggs found in situ, particularly in synovial biopsy. These situations are less common and antiparasitic treatment is straightforward. On the other hand, arthritis can be associated with parasitic infections in the form of reactive arthritis due to an immunological reaction. In such cases, pathogenicity due to circulating immune complex should be suspected. Anti-inflammatory treatments such as corticosteroids or immunosuppressive therapies are ineffective in cases of schistosomal arthropathy. A joint fluid puncture appears to be necessary and parasitic examination as well as in situ immunological techniques appear to be important in order to confirm the diagnosis of schistosomal arthropathy.
    Conclusions: The frequency of articular schistosomiasis is probably underestimated and should be sought when patients have unexplained polyarthropathy, as it can be an alternative diagnosis when patients have concomitant parasitic infections. These situations are common, whereas the association between unexplained inflammatory arthritis and a concomitant parasitic infection is rarely made. Unspecific rheumatism can lead to probabilistic treatments with many side effects, and looking for a parasitic aetiology could lead to repeated antiparasitic treatments and may avoid other immunosuppressive or corticosteroid therapies. With increasing travel and global migration, physicians need to be more aware of nonspecific symptoms that may reveal an atypical presentation of a tropical disease that can be treated easily, thus avoiding inappropriate immunosuppressive treatments.

    Abstract As a result of Next Generation Sequencing methods, metagenomic studies have become increasingly widespread. After being first applied to microbiome description, metagenomics is currently proposed as a diagnostic tool in clinical microbiology, although this application remains confined to the field of research. In this review, we will discuss the application of metagenomics to the detection of bacterial pathogens and demonstrate that the interpretation of the metagenomic results may fluctuate depending on the type of sample analyzed. However, we propose a view of metagenomic application to the evaluation of antimicrobial resistance, epidemic investigations and forensic medicine. Secondly, we present the many limits of metagenomic interpretation and application in routine clinical microbiology. From our perspective, metagenomics is not yet reliable enough for general use in clinical microbiology.

    Abstract Campylobacter jejuni is recognized as a cause of miscarriage in animals, but rarely in humans. We describe here a case of spontaneous miscarriage at 12 weeks of gestation associated with Campylobacter jejuni bacteremia following digestive disorders. The patient was treated with azithromycin with good clinical evolution and underwent uterine aspiration during hospitalization. In our review of the literature, we found only 12 other miscarriages due to C. jejuni infections. Clinicians should consider this cause of miscarriage in febrile pregnant women, as the bacterium is resistant to many beta-lactam antibiotics, and macrolides are the first-line treatment.

    Abstract The management of some serious infections such as infective endocarditis (IE) and bone and joint infections (BJIs) caused by Gram-positive cocci (GPC) is complex and requires great responsiveness and effective antimicrobials with high bioavailability in heart valves or bone tissues. Treatment of these infections requires the use of a higher dosage that may result in increased toxicity or the use of new promising antimicrobials to control the infection. However, use of these new antimicrobials could still bring about new toxicity and resistance. Another approach may be the 'comeback' of old antimicrobials, which is evaluated in this review in the treatment of IE and BJIs caused by GPC.
