Late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) accounts for 95% of all Alzheimer's cases and is genetically complex in nature. Overlapping clinical and neuropathological features between AD, FTD and Parkinson's disease highlight the potential role of genetic pleiotropy across diseases. Recent genome‐wide association studies (GWASs) have uncovered 20 new loci for AD risk; however, these exhibit small effect sizes.

Objectives: During 2003, the Health Protection Agency's Antibiotic Resistance Monitoring and Reference Laboratory began to receive isolates of Escherichia coli for confirmation of extended-spectrum ?-lactamase production with a phenotype implying a CTX-M-type ?-lactamase, i.e. MICs of cefotaxime ?8-fold higher than MICs of ceftazidime. Many were referred as being from community patients. We examined 291 CTX-M-producing isolates from the UK and investigated the genetic basis of their phenotype.
