Dysentery caused by macrolide and fluoroquinolone resistant Campylobacter coli in central area of Iran

Background: Campylobacter genus is considered some of the most important agents of bacterial gastroenteritis worldwide. Campylobacter coli (C. coli) is accounted to at least 25% of all Campylobacter related diarrheal diseases moreover, C. coli infections can result in severe complications, such as bacteremia, sepsis, meningitis and spontaneous abortion. Finally, there is evidence that the frequ...

Fluoroquinolone-resistant Escherichia coli, Indonesia

In a recent, population-based survey of 3,996 persons in Indonesia, fluoroquinolone (FQ)-resistant Escherichia coli was prevalent in the fecal flora of 6% of patients at hospital admission and 23% of patients at discharge, but not among healthy relatives or patients visiting primary healthcare centers (2%). Molecular typing showed extensive genetic diversity with only limited clonality among is...

Bacterial sepsis with fluoroquinolone resistant E. coli after prostate biopsy — Is fluoroquinolone prophylaxis still effective?

Fluoroquinolone-resistant Escherichia coli: food for thought.

Molecular typing of fluoroquinolone resistant Escherichia coli isolates from patients undergoing prostate biopsy

Background: Escherichia coli (E. coli) is one of the most important infectious agents in patients undergoing prostate biopsy. It belongs to a large family of gram-negative rods, Enterobacteriaceae. This family includes members of the normal flora of the intestine that are only occasionally pathogenic. Recent considerations of rectal colonization with fluoroquinolone-resistant E. coli shows the ...
