Aeromonas hydrophila bacteraemia and portal pyaemia.
The Aeromonas species uncommonly cause disease in humans. We report portal pyaemia secondary to Aeromonas hydrophila bacteraemia occurring in a 71-year-old Chinese man with no history of hepatobiliary disease or malignancy. He presented with fever, rigors and abdominal bloating for four days and was subsequently found to have Aeromonas hydrophila bacteraemia, portal vein thrombosis and a psoas ...
متن کاملAntimicrobial peptides: broad-spectrum antibiotics from nature.
No therapeutically useful new classes of antibiotics have been identified in the past quarter of a century This has become of major consequence in the face of the increase in the incidence of significant antibiotic resistance in the past decade. Indeed, strains of several important pathogens have been identified for which very few, or even no, possibilities for antibiotic therapy exist. Althoug...
متن کاملProphylactic Antibiotics in Otolaryngologic Surgeries: From Knowledge to Practice
Introduction: The management and use of antimicrobial drugs has clinical, economic, and environmental implications. In many countries, antimicrobial drugs are the most frequently prescribed therapeutic agents. Therefore, health-care policy should focus on how to establish a rational attitude toward antibiotics. This study was performed to investigate antibiotic usage as a prophylactic regimen ...
متن کاملresistance of nanobacteria isolated from urinary and kidney stones to broad-spectrum antibiotics.
background and objective: nanoscopic life forms called nanobacteria or calcifying nanoparticles (cnp) are unconventional agents. these novel organisms are very small (0.1 to 0.5 microns) and possess unusual properties such as high resistance to heat and routine antimicrobial agents. nanobacteria are 100 times smaller than bacteria and protected by a shell of apatite, so they could be as candida...
متن کاملHigh-throughput discovery of broad-spectrum peptide antibiotics.
Membrane-permeabilizing peptide antibiotics are an underutilized weapon in the battle against drug-resistant microorganisms. This is true, in part, because of the bottleneck caused by the lack of explicit design principles and the paucity of simple high-throughput methods for selection. In this work, we characterize the requirements for broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity by membrane permeabi...
