Increasing importance of plasmid-mediated trimethoprim resistance in enterobacteria: two six-month clinical surveys.
All clinical isolates of enterobacteria received at the laboratory were monitored for trimethoprim resistance over six months in 1978. The survey was repeated in 1979 and the incidence of trimethoprim resistance showed a slight decrease, but the proportion of resistant strains owing their trimethoprim resistance to transferable R plasmids had almost trebled. There was also a large increase in t...
متن کاملType of Bacterial Isolates and Antibiotic Resistance Patterns from Clinical Specimens in Yazd, Iran
Background and Aims: Due to a wide variety of causes, various bacteria can acquire resistance to antibiotics. This study investigated the antibiotic susceptibility patterns of the etiologic bacterial agents of various infections in patients referred to three hospitals in Yazd city, Iran. Materials and Methods: A total of 336 clinical specimens including wound discharge, sputum, blood, bronchia...
متن کاملDistribution Patterns of Methicillin Resistance Genes (mecA) in Staphylococcus aureus Isolated from Clinical Specimens
There is a growing concern about the application of molecular methods in epidemiological studies of infectious diseases. The objective of this study was to determine the genetic stability of methicillin resistance genes in Staphylococcus aureus for the evaluation of resistance strain distribution. One hundred and fifteen S. aureus isolates from patients with staphylococcal infection were collec...
متن کاملEvaluation of Toxin and Antitoxin System in Acinetobacter Multidrug Resistance Bacteria Isolated From Clinical Specimens
Introduction: Acinetobacter baumannii is one of the most important nosocomial and community-acquired pathogens that is resistant to many antibiotics. Toxin-antitoxin systems are regulatory systems that maintain bacteria and serve as new targets for Antimicrobial therapies are considered. The prevalence and transcription of these systems in clinical isolates is still unknown. The aim of this stu...
متن کاملFactors associated with trimethoprim-resistant bacteria isolated from urine samples.
Urine samples with trimethoprim-resistant or trimethoprim-sensitive Gram-negative bacteria and samples with no bacterial growth (NG) were identified. Age-sex matched community controls were generated with each trimethoprim-resistant case. These four groups were evaluated for exposure. Prior trimethoprim use was significantly more common in the trimethoprim-resistant group when compared with the...
