Risk Factors for Mortality, Intensive Care Unit Admission, and Bacteremia in Patients Suspected of Sepsis at the Emergency Department: A Prospective Cohort Study Universiteit Hasselt
Characterization of Salmonella enterica isolates causing bacteremia in Lima, Peru, using multiple typing methods Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde KU Leuven
In this study, different molecular typing tools were applied to characterize 95 Salmonella enterica blood isolates collected between 2008 and 2013 from patients at nine public hospitals in Lima, Peru. Combined results of multiplex PCR serotyping, two- and seven-loci multilocus sequence typing (MLST) schemes, serotyping, IS200 amplification and RAPD fingerprints, showed that these infections were caused by eight different serovars: ...

Resistance to quinolones, cephalosporins and macrolides in Escherichia coli causing bacteremia in Peruvian children Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde KU Leuven
OBJECTIVE: To characterize the β-lactam, quinolone and macrolide resistance levels and mechanisms in 62 Escherichia coli isolates causing children bacteremia.
METHODS: Minimal inhibitory concentration of ciprofloxacin, nalidixic acid (NAL) and azithromycin was determined in presence and absence of Phe-Arg-β-Naphtylamyde. Additionally, the susceptibility levels to other 14 antimicrobial agents was established. Extended Spectrum ...
