Case Report Emergence of Resistance to Third-Generation Cephalosporin in Shigella—A Case Report
The emergence of ciprofloxacin resistance in Shigella has shifted the attention to cephalosporins. The first occurrence of third generation cephalosporin-resistant Shigella flexneri was from France. This article reports the first case of cephalosporin-resistant S. flexneri from India. A 12-month-old child was admitted for a 20-day episode of loose stools, non-fetid, with mucus and blood.

متن کاملThird-generation cephalosporin resistance in Shigella sonnei, Argentina.
Shigella sonnei resistant to cefotaxime (but not to ceftazidime) was isolated for the first time in stool samples from a pediatric patient with vomiting and bloody diarrhea in northern Argentina.

متن کاملThird-Generation Cephalosporin–Resistant Vibrio cholerae, India
Vibrio cholerae resistance to third-generation cephalosporins is rarely reported. We detected a strain that was negative for extended-spectrum β-lactamase and positive for the AmpC disk test, modified Hodge test, and EDTA disk synergy test and harbored the blaDHA-1 and blaNDM-1 genes. The antimicrobial drug susceptibility profile of V. cholerae should be monitored.
متن کاملThe Sudden Dominance of blaCTX–M Harbouring Plasmids in Shigella spp. Circulating in Southern Vietnam
BACKGROUND Plasmid mediated antimicrobial resistance in the Enterobacteriaceae is a global problem. The rise of CTX-M class extended spectrum beta lactamases (ESBLs) has been well documented in industrialized countries. Vietnam is representative of a typical transitional middle income country where the spectrum of infectious diseases combined with the spread of drug resistance is shifting and b...
متن کاملThird-generation cephalosporin resistance in clinical isolate of Shigella sonnei in Andaman & Nicobar Islands, India.
Diarrhoea is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in all regions of the world and among all ages [1]. It has been estimated that 91 million individuals worldwide contract shigellosis each year and among them 1.1 million die [2]. About, 410,000 (40%) of these deaths occur among Asian children [3]. Appropriate antibiotic treatment of shigellosis depends on identifying resistance patterns...
