Antibiotic resistance in Enterococcus faecium clinical isolates. Expert Rev. Anti-Infect. Ther. 2014; 12: 239.CATTOIR, V.; GIARD, J.-C. Antibiotic resistance in Enterococcus faecium clinical isolates. Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy, v. 12, n. 2, p. 239-248, 2014....
Concerns regarding increased prevalence of daptomycin (DAP)-resistant strains necessitate novel therapies for Enterococcus faecium infections. Obligately lytic bacteriophages are viruses that target, infect, and kill bacterial cells. Limited studies have evaluated phage-antibiotic combinations against E. faecium...
Enterococcus faecium has become an important microorganism in nosocomial infections with great ability to acquire antibiotic resistance. However, little is known about their presence on the oral cavity. Therefore, our objective was to verify the presence of E. faecium and E. faecalis in endodontic in...
Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium PBP: Penicilin-binding protein S. aureus : Staphylococcus aureus S. pneumonia : Streptococcus pneumoniae B. subtilis : Bacillus subtilis S. epidermidis : Staphylococcus epidermidis FICI: Fractional Inhibitory Concentration Index μg/mL: Microgram per mill...
Therefore, our objective was to verify the presence of E. faecium and E. faecalis in endodontic infections and compare their susceptibility to conventional antibiotics and photodynamic therapy.关键词: Enterococcus faecalis Enterococcus faecium Antimicrobials Photodynamic therapy ...
For colistin, it is the only available agent for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) or MDR Pseudomonas aeruginosa treatment, for example. Same for Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) management, only tigecycline and linezolid (that is not always available due to very high cost compared ...
Syphilis: Benzylpenicillin sodium is one of the preferred treatments for syphilis, a sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum. It is administered intravenously or intramuscularly, depending on the stage and severity of the infection. ...
(GI) tract, thus making vancomycin the drug of choice for treatment of pseudomembranous enterocolitis (PE)27. However, orally-administered (and to a lesser extent intravenously-administered) vancomycin, results in development of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE)29,30. The risk for VRE infection...
One of the most significant medical advancements of the 20th century was the discovery of antibiotics, which continue to play a vital tool in the treatment and prevention of diseases in humans and animals. However, the imprudent use of antibiotics in all
Long-term persistence of resistant Enterococcus species after antibiotics to eradicate Helicobacter pylori. Ann. Intern. Med. 139, 483–487 (2003). This article shows that an antibiotic treatment that successfully eradicates H. pylori in patients also selects for resistant entercocci that persist in...
