METHODS. This was a single-center, retrospective cohort conducted from August 2019 to August 2020 including adult patients who received treatment for variceal hemorrhage and antibiotics for prevention of SBP during hospitalization. Patients were excluded if they were diagnosed with non-variceal hemorrhage...
The WT-pAL-gp39 strain was more sensitive to redox stress via hydrogen peroxide treatment relative to WT-pAL, as the zone of inhibition was significantly larger for the SWU1gp39 expression when compared to vector control (Fig. 4D). Taken together, these results showed that SWU1gp39 ...
5. use of quinolones for the treatment of chronic carriers of Salmonella typhi 6. use of norfloxacin for prophylaxis against SBP. As further experience with these new antimicrobial agents is obtained and as more bacteria develop resistance to current first-line agents, there can be little doubt ...
As mentioned previously, the appearance of a larger number of infections due to quinolone-resistant organisms in recent years may invalidate quino- lone treatment as a first-line therapy for SBP.Cirrhotic patients are particularly prone to de- velop nephrotoxicity from aminoglycosides (35) and this ...
