In confirming whether an isolate belongs to VRSA, the presence of vanA or other van resistance determinants should be demonstrated by molecular methods [15]. VISA Isolates of VISA, which are associated with hospitalization, persistent infection, prolongation, and/or failure of vancomycin therapy, ...
Of the 2842Enterococcusisolates, 88.5% (2516) originated from urine, withE. faeciumaccounted for 60.1% of these. ThevanA gene was identified in 27/28 vancomycin resistantEnterococcus(VRE) isolates, 4 of which carried bothvanA andvanM genes. The remaining strain wasvanM positive. TheoptrA gene ...

To further investigate the similarity between different samples, we constructed a hierarchical clustering tree at the OTU level using the unweighted UniFrac distances (left) and the component proportion of the bacterial phylum in each group (right), in which mice treated with the same antibiotic ...
Experienced surgeons tend to use vancomycin in high-risk patients (higher ASA scores, intraoperative sterility concerns, steroid usage). In that case, one could hypothesize that vancomycin does reduce the SSI rate to comparable levels compared to our control group, which consisted of patients with ...
points >3 times the interquartile range above or below the box were termed far outside points and are indicated by point symbols with plus signs superimposed above them. In the case of the presence of outside points, the whiskers were drawn to the largest and smallest data values, which ...
Here, we identified a significant increase in VREBI incidence over the study period and detected the time point at which the shift of the vanA/vanB ratio is believed to have occurred in Germany [18], and analyzed the further progression of this trend. The overall VREBI incidence increased ...
[19], which used the cut-off value of ≥120 mL/min. Additionally, one study [20] did not report the specific definition of ARC but included a group of patients with CrCl ≥ 120 mL/min. The methods for determining CrCl varied among the studies. CG was the most frequently used CrCl ...
Peritonitis is a limiting complication of peritoneal dialysis, which is treated by intraperitoneal administration of antibiotics. Various dosing strategies are recommended for intraperitoneally administered vancomycin, which leads to large differences in intraperitoneal vancomycin exposure. Based on data from ther...
Ventilator-associated pneumonia is one of the most prevalent nosocomial infections in the intensive care unit (ICU), which leads to poor treatment outcomes and high socioeconomic burden [1]. Multidrug-resistant bacteria are a common problem, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is ...
