Antibiotic Resistance Patterns in Enteric and Uropathogenic Strains of Escherichia Coli in Children
Abstract Background and Objective: Escherichia coli is the most common cause of urinary tract infections in children and the leading cause of intra-abdominal infections (peritonitis and abscess) followed intestinal injuries. Urinary tract infection, including cystitis and pyelonephritis, is a common childhood infection. E. coli causes more than 90 percent of the community acquired and 50% of ho...
متن کاملthe association of virulence determinants of uropathogenic escherichia coli with antibiotic resistance
conclusions the results showed that e. coli isolated from patients with uti had eight virulence factors with high frequencies. moreover, these results alleged a direct connection between virulence factors and antimicrobial resistance in e. coli. results the frequency of virulence factors papc, afa, sfa/foc, fimh, hly, neuc, ibea, and iucc were 53.3%, 51.7%, 53.3%, 56.7%, 23.3%, 31.7%, 20%, and ...
متن کاملUroPathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) Infections: Virulence Factors, Bladder Responses, Antibiotic, and Non-antibiotic Antimicrobial Strategies
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common pathological conditions in both community and hospital settings. It has been estimated that about 150 million people worldwide develop UTI each year, with high social costs in terms of hospitalizations and medical expenses. Among the common uropathogens associated to UTIs development, UroPathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the primary...
متن کاملMolecular Characterization and Antimicrobial Resistance of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli
Background:Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are the most common infectious diseases in childhood. The Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) strains account for as much as 80% of UTIs. Objective:From a clinical perspective, it is important to know which virulence factors and antibiotic resistance properties are present in UPEC strains in pediatrics. Therefore, this study was carried out...
متن کاملStudy of virulence factors of uropathogenic Escherichia coli and its antibiotic susceptibility pattern.
CONTEXT Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common nosocomial infections, caused by Escherichia coli. This study determined the presence of virulence factors in the organism and correlates it with the multi-drug resistance (MDR). AIMS The aim of the following study is to assess the virulence factors of uropathogenic E. coli and antibiotic susceptibility pattern. SETTINGS AND DE...
