Pharmacodynamics of fosfomycin: Insights into clinical use for antimicrobial resistance
(American Society for Microbiology, 2015-09-01)
The aim of this study was to improve the understanding of the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic relationships of fosfomycin against extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli strains that have different ...

β-Lactam/β-Lactam Inhibitor Combinations for the Treatment of Bacteremia Due to Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase-Producing Escherichia coli: A Post Hoc Analysis of Prospective Cohorts
(Oxford University Press, 2012)
Background. Extended-spectrum ß-lactamase–producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) is an important cause of invasive infections. Alternatives to carbapenems—considered the drugs of choice—are needed because of the emergence ...

Duration of Colonization by Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae in Healthy Newborns and Associated Risk Factors: a Prospective Cohort Study
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
Duration of colonization by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) and factors associated with it were studied in 20 newborns in Seville, Spain. Median duration of colonization was 7.5 months; ...

Is reduced vancomycin susceptibility a factor associated with poor prognosis in MSSA bacteraemia?
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
Objectives: The known data about the influence of vancomycin MIC on Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia are contradictory. Our objective was to study the possible impact of vancomycin MIC ≥1.5 mg/L on short- and medium-term ...

Uptake and intracellular activity of moxifloxacin in human neutrophils and tissue-cultured epithelial cells
(American Society for Microbiology, 1999-02-15)
The penetration by moxifloxacin of human neutrophils (polymorphonuclear leukocytes [PMN]) and tissue-cultured epithelial cells (McCoy cells) was evaluated by a fluorometric assay. At extracellular concentrations of 5 ...

Fatal levofloxacin failure in treatment of a bacteremic patient infected with Streptococcus pneumoniae with a preexisting parC mutation
(American Society for Microbiology, 2008)
The fatal outcome of levofloxacin treatment in a patient with bacteremic pneumonia caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae with a preexisting parC mutation is reported. Failure was due to the emergence of a gyrA mutation after ...

Epidemiology and Clinical Features of Infections Caused by Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-Producing Escherichia coli in Nonhospitalized Patients
(American Society for Microbiology, 2004-03)
Infections due to extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli (ESBLEC) in nonhospitalize patients seem to be emerging in different countries. Their incidence, epidemiology, and clinical impact in the ...

Propensity score and desirability of outcome ranking analysis of ertapenem for treatment of nonsevere bacteremic urinary tract infections due to extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase-producing enterobacterales in kidney transplant recipients
(American Society Microbiology, 2021)
There are scarce data on the efficacy of ertapenem in the treatment of bacteremia due to extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacterales (ESBL-E) in kidney transplant (KT) recipients. We evaluated the ...

Mechanisms of Tolerance and Resistance to Chlorhexidine in Clinical Strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae Producers of Carbapenemase: Role of New Type II Toxin-Antitoxin System, PemIK
(MDPI, 2020-09-02)
Although the failure of antibiotic treatment is normally attributed to resistance, tolerance and persistence display a significant role in the lack of response to antibiotics. Due to the fact that several nosocomial ...
