The resistance mechanisms and genotypes of fosfomycin-resistant isolates were also identified. Finally, the in vitro efficacy of combinations of fosfomycin with other antibiotics were examined in susceptible or extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing E. coli isolates. The fosfomycin resistance rate was 6.7% and was significantly higher in LTCF-onset isolates than community-onset and hospital-onset isolates. Twenty-one sequence types (STs) were identified among 19 fosfomycin-resistant E. coli isolates, showing diverse genotypes. fosA3 was found in only two isolates, and diverse genetic variations were identified in three genes associated with fosfomycin resistance, namely, GlpT, UhpT, and MurA.

  • Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, and Syphilis
    2019 GONORRHEA, CHLAMYDIA, AND SYPHILIS AND CHLAMYDIA, GONORRHEA, Dedication TAG would like to thank the National Coalition of STD Directors for funding and input on the report. THE PIPELINE REPORT Pipeline for Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, and Syphilis By Jeremiah Johnson Introduction The current toolbox for addressing gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis is inadequate. At a time where all three epidemics are dramatically expanding in locations all around the globe, including record-breaking rates of new infections in the United States, stakeholders must make do with old tools, inadequate systems for addressing sexual health, and a sparse research pipeline of new treatment, prevention, and diagnostic options. Lack of investment in sexual health research has left the field with inadequate prevention options, and limited access to infrastructure for testing and treatment have allowed sexually transmitted infections (STIs) to flourish. The consequences of this underinvestment are large: according to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2012 there were an estimated 357 million new infections (roughly 1 million per day) of the four curable STIs: gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and trichomoniasis.1 In the United States, the three reportable STIs that are the focus of this report—gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis—are growing at record paces. In 2017, a total of 30,644 cases of primary and secondary (P&S) syphilis—the most infectious stages of the disease—were reported in the United States. Since reaching a historic low in 2000 and 2001, the rate of P&S syphilis has increased almost every year, increasing 10.5% during 2016–2017. Also in 2017, 555,608 cases of gonorrhea were reported to the U.S.

  • Management of Penicillin and Beta-Lactam Allergy
    Management of Penicillin and Beta-Lactam Allergy (NB Provincial Health Authorities Anti-Infective Stewardship Committee, September 2017) Key Points • Beta-lactams are generally safe; allergic and adverse drug reactions are over diagnosed and over reported • Nonpruritic, nonurticarial rashes occur in up to 10% of patients receiving penicillins. These rashes are usually not allergic and are not a contraindication to the use of a different beta-lactam • The frequently cited risk of 8 to 10% cross-reactivity between penicillins and cephalosporins is an overestimate based on studies from the 1970’s that are now considered flawed • Expect new intolerances (i.e. any allergy or adverse reaction reported in a drug allergy field) to be reported after 0.5 to 4% of all antimicrobial courses depending on the gender and specific antimicrobial. Expect a higher incidence of new intolerances in patients with three or more prior medication intolerances1 • For type-1 immediate hypersensitivity reactions (IgE-mediated), cross-reactivity among penicillins (table 1) is expected due to similar core structure and/or major/minor antigenic determinants, use not recommended without desensitization • For type-1 immediate hypersensitivity reactions, cross-reactivity between penicillins (table 1) and cephalosporins is due to similarities in the side chains; risk of cross-reactivity will only be significant between penicillins and cephalosporins with similar side chains • Only type-1 immediate hypersensitivity to a penicillin manifesting as anaphylaxis, bronchospasm,

  • Vs. Long-Course Antibiotic Treatment for Acute Streptococcal Pharyngitis: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
    antibiotics Review Short- vs. Long-Course Antibiotic Treatment for Acute Streptococcal Pharyngitis: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials Anna Engell Holm * , Carl Llor, Lars Bjerrum and Gloria Cordoba Research Unit for General Practice and Section of General Practice, Department of Public Health, Øster Farimagsgade 5, 1014 Copenhagen, Denmark; [email protected] (C.L.); [email protected] (L.B.); [email protected] (G.C.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +45-261-110-54 Received: 9 September 2020; Accepted: 21 October 2020; Published: 26 October 2020 Abstract: BACKGROUND: To evaluate the effectiveness of short courses of antibiotic therapy for patients with acute streptococcal pharyngitis. METHODS: Randomized controlled trials comparing short-course antibiotic therapy ( 5 days) with long-course antibiotic therapy ( 7 days) for patients with ≤ ≥ streptococcal pharyngitis were included. Two primary outcomes: early clinical cure and early bacterial eradication. RESULTS: Fifty randomized clinical trials were included. Overall, short-course antibiotic treatment was as effective as long-course antibiotic treatment for early clinical cure (odds ratio (OR) 0.85; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.79 to 1.15). Subgroup analysis showed that short-course penicillin was less effective for early clinical cure (OR 0.43; 95% CI, 0.23 to 0.82) and bacteriological eradication (OR 0.34; 95% CI, 0.19 to 0.61) in comparison to long-course penicillin. Short-course macrolides were equally effective, compared to long-course penicillin. Finally, short-course cephalosporin was more effective for early clinical cure (OR 1.48; 95% CI, 1.11 to 1.96) and early microbiological cure (OR 1.60; 95% CI, 1.13 to 2.27) in comparison to long-course penicillin.

  • Prevalent Bacteria and Their Sensitivity and Resistance Pattern to Antibiotics: a Study in Dhaka Medical College Hospital
    PREVALENT BACTERIA AND THEIR SENSITIVITY AND RESISTANCE PATTERN TO ANTIBIOTICS: A STUDY IN DHAKA MEDICAL COLLEGE HOSPITAL. HOSSAIN MZ1, NAHER A2, HASAN P3, MOZAZFIA KT4, TASNIM H5, FERDUSH Z6, TOWHID KMS7, IMRAN MAA8 Abstract Background and rationale: Antibiotic resistance is a global problem. Many factors are complexly related to the issue in multiple dimensions. Bangladesh is right in the middle of this great calamity, and is seeing the rise in resistant strains of several bacteria. Very sadly, the prevalent malpractice of abusing antibiotics in Bangladesh contributes to add complexity to the danger which may prove to be possibly the greatest threat humans have ever faced. There is much scarcity of medical literature in Bangladesh, on the antibiotic sensitivity pattern and prevalent microorganisms. Moreover, antibiotic sensitivity pattern changes over time and place. Again, most of the studies done in Bangladesh, concentrate on a single disease, pathogen, or specimen. This study attempts to see the prevalent microorganisms and the antibiotic sensitivity pattern in multiple types of specimens collected from Dhaka Medical College Hospital. This study also attempts to establish a way of presentation of the relevant findings which can be used in future to ensure easy comparability and contrasting of findings. Methods: The specimens were collected from the adult patients (age >12 years) admitted in the Internal Medicine ward of Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, over a period of 6 months. The sampling technique was consecutive sampling method. Specimens which were culture positive, were only included in the study for analysis. Multiple specimens were taken. Results: S. aureus was 100% sensitive to amikacin, moxifloxacin, imipenem, meropenem, piperacillin+tazobactum combination, vancomycin, doxycycline, tetracycline, tigecycline, nitrofurantoin, azactum, linezolid and 100% resistant to cefixime.
