A resistência antimicrobiana está se tornando um grande desafio para saúde pública devido ao aumento da resistência aos beta-lactâmicos em geral. Os isolados de Salmonella spp. e Escherichia coli são os mais frequentes agentes causadores de doenças de transmissão hídrica e alimentar, mas també...
Fosfomycin tromethamol (FT) was reintroduced as an option for the treatment of low urinary tract infection (UTI) in children. In this study, we described the antibiotic sensitivity and mechanisms of resistance to fosfomycin in isolates from children older than 6 years with UTI. Urine culture and antibiot...
ABSTRACT Objective: Cystography an invasive procedure with potential complications such as urinary infection (UI). There are few studies about the incidence of complications associated with this procedure. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the incidence of post-cystography urinary infection (UI....
Introducción: En la superficie cutánea residen microorganismos responsables del balance bioquímico, algunas son patógenas y persisten a pesar del lavado de manos. Objetivo: Identificar la flora bacteriana resistente al lavado de manos en estudiantes universitarios. Métodos: Se realizó el estud...
Resumen Los patotipos de Escherichia coli enterotoxigénica (ETEC) y enteroagregativa (EAEC) son importantes agentes etiológicos causantes de diarrea en niños menores de cinco años de México y países en desarrollo, en quienes causan numerosas muertes. Ambos se han asociado con retraso en el crecimie...
Abstract Introduction: The treatment of urinary tract infections has become more challenging due to the increasing frequency of multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli in human populations. Objective: To characterize multidrug-resistant E. coli isolates causing community-acquired urinary tract infections ...
Introducción: El incremento de la multirresistencia bacteriana constituye un problema de salud pública a nivel internacional. Objetivos: Determinar la susceptibilidad antimicrobiana y los patrones de multirresistencia en cepas de Escherichia coli y Klebsiella pneumoniae aisladas de urocultivos. Mé...
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) is one of the main acute and chronic diarrhea causes both in children and adults, mainly in developing countries. OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study is to characterize EAEC strains isolated from faecal samples and to identify genes p...
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis is a serious complication in cirrhotic patients, and changes in the microbiological characteristics reported in the last years are impacting the choice of antibiotic used for treatment. OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study is to evaluate the ch...
