Nasopharyngeal Carriage, Antibiotic Resistance and Serotype Distribution of Streptococcus Pneumoniae among Healthy Adolescents in Zahedan
BACKGROUND Colonization of nasopharynx by Streptococcus pneumoniae can lead to pneumococcal diseases. This study was performed to determine the carriage rate of nasopharyngeal S. pneumoniae in adolescents, antibiotic susceptibility and serotype prevalence in Zahedan, Iran. METHODS Nasopharyngeal specimens from 865 adolescents (age range: 10-19 years old) attending eight schools in Zahedan, Ir...

متن کاملRate of nasopharyngeal carriage, antimicrobial resistance and serotype of Streptococcus pneumoniae among children in northern Taiwan.
Multiple-antibiotic-resistant strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae are isolated from clinical specimens in Taiwan with increasing frequency. This study aimed to define the carriage rate of S. pneumoniae among children in northern Taiwan, and to determine the antibiotic susceptibility and the serotype incidence of these isolates. Nasopharyngeal swabs were taken from a total of 478 children (age, ...
متن کاملPrevalence and serotype distribution of nasopharyngeal carriage of Streptococcus pneumoniae in China: a meta-analysis
BACKGROUND To explore the overall prevalence and serotype distribution of nasopharyngeal carriage of Streptococcus pneumoniae(S. pneumoniae) among healthy children. METHODS A search for pneumococcal nasopharyngeal carriage studies including children published up to July 31th, 2016 was conducted to describe carriage in China. The review also describes antibiotic resistance in and serotypes of ...
متن کاملAntibiotic Resistance Patterns and Risk Factors of Streptococcus Pneumoniae Carriage among Healthy Jordanian Children
Objectives: Isolation of Streptococcus pneumoniae from healthy children in Amman, Jordan. Methods: Nasal swabs were taken from 1002 healthy children. Isolates were analysed for antimicrobial susceptibility, serotypes, macrolide resistance genotypes and phenotypes. Results: The overall carriage rate was 19.5% (n= 195 isolates). The percentage of resistance was as follows: penicillin (91.8%), cef...
