Infections Caused by Stenotrophomonas maltophilia in Recipients of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.

Frontiers in oncology

Al-Anazi KA, Al-Jasser AM.
PMID: 25202682
Front Oncol. 2014 Aug 25;4:232. doi: 10.3389/fonc.2014.00232. eCollection 2014.

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (S. maltophilia) is a globally emerging Gram-negative bacillus that is widely spread in environment and hospital equipment. Recently, the incidence of infections caused by this organism has increased, particularly in patients with hematological malignancy and in recipients...

Protecting Mammalian Hair Cells from Aminoglycoside-Toxicity: Assessing Phenoxybenzamine's Potential.

Frontiers in cellular neuroscience

Majumder P, Moore PA, Richardson GP, Gale JE.
PMID: 28503132
Front Cell Neurosci. 2017 Apr 18;11:94. doi: 10.3389/fncel.2017.00094. eCollection 2017.

Aminoglycosides (AGs) are widely used antibiotics because of their low cost and high efficacy against gram-negative bacterial infection. However, AGs are ototoxic, causing the death of sensory hair cells in the inner ear. Strategies aimed at developing or discovering...

OBJECTIVE: There is an increased prevalence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (ESBL-KP) worldwide including India, which is a major concern for the clinicians, especially in intensive care units and pediatric patients. This study aims to determine the prevalence...

Carriage of multidrug-resistant organisms in a tertiary university hospital in Albania-a point prevalence survey.

Antimicrobial resistance and infection control

Parascandalo FA, Zarb P, Tartari E, Lacej D, Bitincka S, Manastirliu O, Nika D, Borg MA.
PMID: 27499852
Antimicrob Resist Infect Control. 2016 Aug 05;5:29. doi: 10.1186/s13756-016-0128-1. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial resistance has been recognised as a serious global Public Health problem. Prevalence of Multiple-Drug-Resistant (MDR) organism carriage in Albania is largely unknown since no national surveillance system is in place and few publications are accessible in the...

Plasmid Profile Analysis and bla VIM Gene Detection of Metalo β-lactamase (MBL) Producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolates from Clinical Samples.

Journal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR

S J, M J.
PMID: 25120980
J Clin Diagn Res. 2014 Jun;8(6):DC16-9. doi: 10.7860/JCDR/2014/8096.4492. Epub 2014 Jun 20.

INTRODUCTION: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a frequent colonizer of hospitalized patients. They are responsible for serious infections such as meningitis, urological infections, septicemia and pneumonia. Carbapenem resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is currently increasingly reported which is often mediated by production...

Towards the Prevention of Aminoglycoside-Related Hearing Loss.

Frontiers in cellular neuroscience

O'Sullivan ME, Perez A, Lin R, Sajjadi A, Ricci AJ, Cheng AG.
PMID: 29093664
Front Cell Neurosci. 2017 Oct 18;11:325. doi: 10.3389/fncel.2017.00325. eCollection 2017.

Aminoglycosides are potent antibiotics deployed worldwide despite their known side-effect of sensorineural hearing loss. The main etiology of this sensory deficit is death of inner ear sensory hair cells selectively triggered by aminoglycosides. For decades, research has sought to...

INTRODUCTION: Multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MDR-PA) is an important and growing issue in the care of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), and a major cause of morbidity and mortality.OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to describe the frequency of...

Aminoglycoside-Induced Cochleotoxicity: A Review.

Frontiers in cellular neuroscience

Jiang M, Karasawa T, Steyger PS.
PMID: 29062271
Front Cell Neurosci. 2017 Oct 09;11:308. doi: 10.3389/fncel.2017.00308. eCollection 2017.

Aminoglycoside antibiotics are used as prophylaxis, or urgent treatment, for many life-threatening bacterial infections, including tuberculosis, sepsis, respiratory infections in cystic fibrosis, complex urinary tract infections and endocarditis. Although aminoglycosides are clinically-essential antibiotics, the mechanisms underlying their selective toxicity...

[Assay of aminoglycosides in serum using the urease method].

Infection

PMID: 27722999
Infection. 1977 Jun;5(2):115-116. doi: 10.1007/BF01642092.

The urease method developed byNoone et al. for rapid bioassay of aminoglycoside antibiotics in serum is described in detail. The accuracy of the method was improved by using a BM 1-09 electrode assembly (Metrohm, CH-9100 Herisau, Switzerland) in conjunction...
