Zooanthroponotic Transmission of Drug-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Brazil
Open accessAbstract
We recovered VIM-2 carbapenemase-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from an infected dog, its owner, and the domestic environment. Genomic investigation revealed household transmission of the high-risk hospital clone sequence type 233 in the human-animal-environment interface. Results suggest zooanthroponotic transmission of VIM-2-producing P. aeruginosa in the household following the patient's hospital discharge.

A review reported 56 articles dealing with human to animal disease transmission.
“A review on this subject reported 56 articles dealing with human to animal disease transmission [98].”
From A One Health Perspective on the Human-Companion Animal Relationship with Emphasis on Zoonotic Aspects. (2020) · cites this paper as [98]
The References section names a systematic review of human-to-animal disease transmission, so the cited paper supports the existence of a review on this subject. Neither that entry nor the paper’s discussion states that the review reported 56 articles; searches for “56 articles” and the review’s article count found no such passage. No page number is provided in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.78)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
