In recent years, there has been a significant rise in the prevalence of multidrug resistance Salmonella typhi and salmonella paratyphi in Dhaka city. Patients are most susceptible to infections like typhoid fever. It is therefore a subject of interest to observe the number of incidence and antimicrobial resistant pattern of typhoidal Salmonella in patients in Dhaka city. During February to May ...

Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is a food-borne pathogen that causes severe gastroenteritis. The ability of Salmonella to cause disease depends on two type III secretion systems (T3SSs) encoded in two distinct Salmonella pathogenicity islands, 1 and 2 (SPI1 and SPI2, respectively). S. Typhimurium encodes a solo LuxR homolog, SdiA, which can detect the acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs) pro...

The publication of studies using next generation sequencing to analyse large numbers of bacterial isolates from global epidemics is transforming microbiology, epidemiology and public health. The emergence of multidrug resistant Salmonella Typhimurium ST313 is one example. While the epidemiology in Africa appears to be human-to-human spread and the association with invasive disease almost absolu...

Salmonella virchow infection in man is usually sporadic and is little known in Britain. We report an outbreak of 21 cases in the Manchester area. The source of infection was believed to be chickens bought at different shops. Symptoms were typhoidal or septicaemic.

Non-typhoidal Salmonella infections are a common cause of gastroenteritis in England. Non-Enteritidis, non-Typhimurium Salmonella serotypes have gained in relative importance in recent years, but their modes of transmission are poorly understood. In a large case-case study in England between 2004 and 2007, the association between exposure to reptiles and Salmonella illness was investigated usin...

Interleukin 12 receptor beta 1 (IL12Rβ1) deficiency is the most common cause of Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD). MSMD usually predisposes affected individuals infections with weakly virulent mycobacteria such as Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG), environmental mycobacteria, non-typhoidal Salmonella, and certain other intracellular pathogens. presents disseminated BCG infect...

background: salmonella is one of the major causes of human diseases related to food consumption. salmonella typhi and s. para-typhi are causes of typhoidal and para-typhoidal infections. some infected individuals recovering from this infection become temporary or permanent carriers, harboring the organisms in the gallbladder, biliary tract, or rarely in their intestines. the aims of this study ...

Antimicrobial susceptibility was analyzed for 354 typhoidal Salmonella isolates collected during 1999-2012 in the Netherlands. In 16.1% of all isolates and in 23.8% of all isolates that showed increased MICs for ciprofloxacin, the MIC for azithromycin was increased. This resistance may complicate empirical treatment of enteric fever.

BACKGROUND Non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi bacteremia are the causes of significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. There is a paucity of data regarding NTS bacteremia in South Asia, a region with a high incidence of typhoidal bacteremia. We sought to determine clinical predictors and outcomes associated with NTS bacteremia compared with typhoidal bactere...
