Fluoroquinolone Resistance and Clostridium difficile, Germany
We characterized 670 Clostridium difficile isolates collected from patients in 84 hospitals in Germany in 2008. PCR ribotyping showed high prevalence of ribotype 001 and restricted dissemination of ribotype 027 strains. Fluoroquinolone resistance and associated gyrase mutations were frequent in various ribotypes, but no resistance to metronidazole or vancomycin was noted.
متن کاملMultiple resistance mechanisms in fluoroquinolone-resistant Salmonella isolates from Germany.
During the early 1990s, a clone of multiresistant Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium O5 negative (var. Copenhagen) of phage type DT204c predominated in Germany and neighboring countries within the calf-fattening industry. In addition to being resistant to ampicillin, kanamycin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, and trimethoprim, these isolates were highly resistant to nalidixic acid (MIC 128 ...

متن کاملFluoroquinolone Use and Clostridium difficile–Associated Diarrhea
We performed a case-control study to evaluate the association between antibiotic use and Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD), matching for admission unit and time at risk for CDAD. A multivariable regression model showed that treatment with fluoroquinolones (odds ratio 12.7; 95% confidence interval 2.6 to 61.6) was the strongest risk factor for CDAD.
