Antimicrobials for treating symptomatic non-typhoidal Salmonella infection

Drug Resistance Patterns of Typhoidal and Non-typhoidal Salmonella Species in Hamadan

ABSTRACT The epidemiological studies indicate that the incidence of salmonellosis is increasing throughout the world. The uncontroled and unappropriate usage of antibiotics has been caused multi - drug resistance in these organisms, in recent years. In a cross-sectional descriptive study, 204 strains of typhoidal salmonella (T.S) and 114 strains of non-typhoidal salmonella (N.T.S) were exami...

Non-typhoidal Salmonella bacteremia in adults.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Very few studies have examined prognostic factors in adult patients with non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) bacteremia. The purpose of this study was to identify the prognostic factors of these patients. METHODS A total of 79 episodes of NTS bacteremia were identified in 73 patients between January 2001 and December 2003. Susceptibilities to various antimicrobials were dete...

Non-typhoidal Salmonella infections in HIV-positive adults.

Non-typhoidal salmonellae are important pathogens causing bacteraemia, especially in immunocompromised patients, but there are limited data explicitly describing the clinical characteristics and outcome in these individuals. Recurrent invasive salmonellosis has been recognised as an AIDS-defining condition in HIV-positive patients since the 1980s. Salmonella meningitis is an infrequent complica...
