The odds ratio for women with bacterial vaginosis also having a urinary tract infection was 2.79 (95% confidence interval = 1.05–8.33). Women with and women without bacterial vaginosis were similar in age (mean = 28 years) and race. The diagnosis of both bacterial vaginosis and urinary tract...
Pyelonephritis, an inflammation of the kidney, can be caused by bacteria that have spread from other parts of the urinary tract (such as the bladder). In addition,pyelonephritiscan develop from bacteria that travel through the bloodstream to the kidney. When the infection spreads from the lower ...

PREGNANT womenESCHERICHIA coliThe study sample included randomly (90) women who are suffering from urinary tract infection, divided into two groups, the first group included (52) women who are pregnant, while the second group consist of (38) non pregnant women. Those women...
Urinary tract infection (UTI)is a bacterial infection of the bladder, urethra, kidneys, or ureters. Respiratory tract infectionsinclude sore throat, bronchitis, sinusitis, and pneumonia. Bacteria or viruses may be responsible for respiratory tract infections. Tuberculosis is a type of bacterial lower...
Women in their 3rd and 2nd. trimester were more significantly associated with vaginal infection (X2 = 9.47, P = 0.002; X2 = 4.79, P = 0.029) respectively. The Pseudomonas showed susceptibility to ciprofloxacin (CIP) and cefuroxime (CXM). While, E. coli isolates were ...
thereby possibly inducing BV in some women. A similar mechanism has been observed for urinary tract infections in women, and in particular, a significantly elevated risk for urinary tract infection withE. coliassociated with condom use has been observed [105], presumably involving a rectal-vestibular...
The aim this study was to determine the in vitro susceptibility to fosfomycin of bacteria isolated from urine samples of pregnant women with urinary tract infection. Samples of urine culture with bacterial growth of pregnant women were collected from clinical laboratories in Tubarão, state of Santa...
Host cells assemble linear ubiquitin chains to activate immune signalling during bacterial infection. A new study reveals that Legionella pneumophila— the causative agent of Legionnaires’ disease — produces an enzyme that specifically disassembles these linear ubiquitin modifications to restrict immune resp...
