Requirements for modern management of diabetic foot include early diagnosis and timely combination of anti-infective drugs and surgery, and it is believed that the combination of antibiotics and surgery appears to be more effective than either treatment alone [9, 10]. Surgical intervention is ...
As a result, a high C-reactive protein (CRP) level may be noted which can often lead to unnecessary use of antibiotics and hospital admissions. Using of point-of-care (POC) testing for HAdV infections could improve the pre-hospital evaluation, provide the diagnosis, and lead to appropriate...

Objective To investigate the drug-resistance of different types of Helicobacter pylori(Hp) strains,in order to provide the basis for guiding clinical eradication treatment for Hp infection.Methods Bacteria of gastric mucosa tissue in patients with chronic gastritis,peptic ulcer,and gastric cancer were ...
Describe the characteristics of bacteria and give an example of a bacterial infection. What types of medications are used to treat them? Describe various viral resistance methods in plants. Many antibiotics are produced by fungi. What is the evolutionary advantage of produci...
Data suggest very high rates of ABR in several low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), although representative data remain scarce for some regions [1]. Overuse and misuse of antibiotics, poor sanitation, low vaccination rates and poor infection prevention and control practices all contribute to ...
Extensive use and misuse of prophylactic antibiotics in aquaculture for the prevention of bacterial infection and rapid spread of disease is most likely the main cause of the emergence and widespread of multiple drug resistance (MDR) in V. parahaemolyticus isolates. In addition, the overuse of ...
Most human parainfluenza viruses are mild and can be treated at home. Because HPIVs are caused by viruses and notbacteria,antibioticsdon’t work. In a typical case of human parainfluenza virus, treatment involves reducing the severity of symptoms until the virus passes. ...
Antivirulence drugs are likely to have distinct properties from those of antibiotics, including reduced selection pressure (meaning they are less likely to lead to drug resistance) and minimal perturbation of the healthy microbiota. However, antivirulence strategies pose unique challenges for drug developme...
