The main objective of the study is to describe the antimicrobial resistance profile of E. coli isolated in patients from the community - defined as those with cultures collected within 48 hours of hospital admission - and admitted to the intensive care unit.
This descriptive cross-sectional study will beconducted in Suez Canal University Hospitals (SCUHs) in Ismailia, Egypt. The study aims to detect Escherichia coli biofilm producers to improve prognosis and treatment and reduce morbidity and mortality rates due to this infection.
We aim to conduct a prospective surveillance study of mothers and their infants born vaginally or by scheduled C-section and who are admitted to Northwestern Medicine Prentice Women's Hospital to determine the prevalence of ESBL-E carriage in healthy post-partum women and the transmission rate of these strains to their infants. Using whole genome sequencing and a comparative genomics approach we will determine the relatedness of strains among mother-infant dyads as well as identify genetic regions common to transmitted strains. We hypothesize that; 1) given the diverse population of Chicago there will be a significant rate of gut colonization with ESBL-E among mothers admitted to Prentice, 2) ESBL-E strains isolated from neonates will be identical to those from their mothers and 3) genetic determinants of transmission are conserved across ESBL E. coli strains that are perinatally transmitted. These hypotheses will be tested using the following Aims: Aim 1: Determine the prevalence of ESBL-E gut colonization and rate of perinatal transmission among mother-infant dyads Aim 2: Identify genetic determinants of transmission common to ESBL E. coli that are perinatally transmitted. Our long-term goal is to understand the unique features of persistent gut and vaginal ESBL-E colonizers and identify genetic and molecular elements that could be attractive therapeutic targets to decrease the burden of ESBL-E colonization and perinatal transmission.
The purpose of this study is to show that high-dose quadrivalent seasonal influenza vaccine (HD QIV) given together with 9-valent extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli vaccine (ExPEC9V) does not induce lower antibody response against each of the 4 influenza vaccine strains, as compared to HD QIV given alone and further show that ExPEC9V given together with HD QIV does not induce lower antibody response against each of the vaccine O-serotype antigens, as compared to ExPEC9V given alone.
The goal of this individual patient data meta-analysis is to estimate the attributed and the associated health burden related to bloodstream infections, pneumonia, skin and soft tissue infections, surgical site infections and urinary tract infections, caused by target drug-resistant pathogens, in high income countries. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Are common infections caused by drug-resistant pathogens associated with an increased health burden, when compared with individuals with the same infection caused by a susceptible strain (attributed burden)? - Are common infections caused by drug-resistant pathogens associated with an increase health burden, when compared with individuals without the infection under study (associated burden)?
The goal of this observational study is to reveal quinolone resistance profiles and mechanisms in S. aureus and E. coli in the human, animal and aquaculture sector in Blitar, Indonesia. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Obtain the quinolone resistance profiles and mechanisms of S. aureus and E. coli in human health, animal health and aquaculture health sector in Blitar, Indonesia. - Obtain the association of AMR and AMU data within and between the human health, animal health and aquaculture health sector in Blitar, for quinolones.
This is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple dose, dose escalation study in healthy participants, investigating the safety, tolerability, recovery, and PD of multiple oral administrations of SNIPR001.
The objective of this study is to determine if early high volume intravenous fluid administration (hyperhydration) may be effective in mitigating or preventing complications of shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) infection in children and adolescents when compared with traditional approaches (conservative fluid management).
Escherichia coli (E. coli) poses a major public health problem. E. coli is not only a commensal of the digestive tract but also a major opportunistic pathogen, first cause of urinary tract infections, first cause of bacteremia. However, little is known about the dynamics of intestinal colonization of the human host. Understanding the dynamics of colonization is crucial because selection for the major traits of E. coli is antibiotic resistance and virulence (the propensity to cause infection) works in commensalism, in the gut, not in infections. This study will make possible for the first time to study the colonization dynamics of E. coli in a large healthy host population. The main objective is to quantify the succession (gain, loss or replacement) of E. coli strains in the gut microbiota in healthy volunteers and how it depends on the properties of the host and the bacteria. This study will thus provide a better understanding of the E. Coli's epidemiological dynamics and the development of certain traits such as antibiotic resistance. To reach this goal, the study will take place in two successive phases : A first pilot phase will first be conducted with 50 healthy volunteers. During this pilot phase, a stool sample will be taken. The strains isolated during this pilot phase will be sequenced, making possible to characterize the strains present and the strains' possible changes between two stool samples. Succession rates will be estimated. The optimal sampling rate that maximizes accuracy in estimating succession rates will be identified and retained for the second phase. A second phase, a prospective cohort study will also be conducted in 200 healthy volunteers. During this second phase, healthy volunteers who participated in the first phase will be able to continue their participation and new volunteers will be selected. The healthy volunteers included in the prospective cohort study will be followed up with visits and stool samples which will be defined according to the results of the pilot phase.
