conclusions timely detection and appropriate antibiotic therapy of afbn are essential to prevent renal abscess formation. a possible diagnosis of afbn needs to be considered in all patients being treated for febrile uti. detection and surgical correction of the underlying malformation are necessary to prevent further recurrences. case presentation here we describe a case of a 4-year-old boy adm...

background : the pathologies classified as urinary tract infections (uti) can have a deleterious effect on patients who have undergone a renal transplantation.  often recurrent utis will occur, leading to high morbidity, failure of the grafting process overall and even death.  the study presented here seeks to expand the knowledge of recurrent utis in the context of renal transplantation, what ...

background putative virulence factors are responsible for the pathogenicity of utis caused by pseudomonas aeruginosa (p. aeruginosa). resistance of p. aeruginosa to commonly used antibiotics is caused by the extreme overprescription of those antibiotics. objectives the goal of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of virulence factors and the antibiotic resistance patterns of p. a...

background diabetes is one of the most serious metabolic disorders to affect different organs in the body. patients with diabetes are hence at risk of developing other problems. urinary tract infections (uti) are one of the problems that occur more commonly in diabetic patients than in others. there are several risk factors that lead to the incidence of uti in diabetic patients. conclusions we ...

results there are many pitfalls in diagnosis of utis both with urinalysis and culture methods and also in evaluating the risk factors and causes of utis. conclusions this paper reviews and discusses the common pitfalls in diagnosis and evaluation of utis in children. context urinary tract infections (utis) are among the most common infections in children that affect up to 3% of boys and 8% of g...

background:  one of the most common infections in human is urinary tract infection  (uti)  and  uropathogenic   escherichia  coli   is  one  of  its  major causative agents . uti is extremely common among young women. children under age 5 are also highly at risk. considering the prevalence of this disease, it is necessary  to design  an appropriate  diagnostic  method  for its effective diagnos...

objective(s) staphylococcus aureus is both a successful human commensal and a major pathogen. in this study we investigated the genetic diversity of 26 s. aureus isolates recovered from human skin and urinary tract infections. materials and methods typing procedure for the studied s. aureus isolates was performed based on pcr amplification of the aroa gene, which encodes the enzyme 5-enolpyruvy...

background: based on biochemical properties, enterobacter cloacae represents a large complex of at least 13 variant species, subspecies, and genotypes that progressively identified as the most species causing hospital-acquired infections. the aim of this study was to determine the relevance between phylogenetically related strains within the e. cloacae complex and the frequency of urinary tract...

conclusions in conclusion, we developed a method to express the papg.acma protein on the surface of lactobacillus. this is the first report on the successful application of lactic acid bacteria displaying the papg.acma fusion protein. it will be interesting to determine the immune responses against the papg protein in near future using this surface display strategy. results the papg.acma fusion...
