Filter by:The sequence type 131 (ST131) is a predominant lineage among extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli. It plays a major role in the worldwide dissemination of E. coli that produce extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL). The aim of this study was to describe the epidemiology of ESBL producing ST131clonal group in our university hospital. All patients with an infection due to ESBL E. coli will be prospectively included for a 2-year period. ST131 isolates will be identified and risk factors associated to ST131 will be determined in comparison to non-ST131 ESBL E. coli.
This study evaluates oral antimicrobial agents for the treatment of non-bacteremic acute urinary tract infection caused by Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase producing Escherichia coli or Klebsiella pneumoniae in Post-kidney transplantation. Patients are treated with intravenous (IV) antibiotics follow by oral sitafloxacin or IV ertapenem.
Although the existing diarrhoeagenic Escherichia coli (E. coli) challenge model is already suitable for dietary interventions in its current form, further characterization of the working-mechanism of the attenuated strain and further optimization of the study design will enable the investigators to better select those ingredients that affect the key pathophysiological processes. The aim of the CORAL study is to further characterize and increase the discriminative power of the diarrhoeagenic E. coli challenge model.
The aim of the investigators' study was to evaluate oral and non carbapenem antimicrobial agents which can be used in outpatient for the treatment of non-bacteremic acute pyelonephritis caused by Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase Escherichia coli. This study was conducted to compare the clinical and bacteriological outcomes of patients with non-bacteremic acute pyelonephritis caused by Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase Escherichia coli who were treated with intravenous (IV) carbapenems followed by oral sitafloxacin or IV ertapenem.
This Phase I multi-center placebo controlled study is conducted in healthy women with a history of recurrent urinary tract infections (UTI) aged between 18 and 70 years.
The purpose of the study is to determine if immunization with a chimeric E. coli protein, dsc14CfaE-sCT2/LTB5, is safe and immunogenic when administered by vaccination under the skin.
The aim of this study is to accelerate the development of vaccine candidates against diarrheal diseases caused by Shigella and Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC). We plan to identify cases of laboratory-proven shigellosis and ETEC-associated diarrhea, to study humoral and cellular immune parameters following natural infections with Shigella and ETEC, and to compare the level of pre-existing local, humoral and cellular immune parameters in cases of shigellosis and ETEC-associated diarrhea and in matched controls.
The investigators examined the outcome of patients with severe Enterohaemorrhagic E. Coli (EHEC) O104:H4 infection suffering from bloody diarrhoea that were at risk to develop hemolytic uremic syndrome and underwent repetitive whole bowl lavage during hospitalization.
The Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS) in its typical form occurs after a food born infection with a shiga-toxin secreting bacteria, usually Escherichia coli of the O157H7 serotype. An outbreak of bloody diarrhea followed by HUS begun after a collective meal with 120 persons on June 8th, 2011 in Bègles, a city of Bordeaux urban area (CUB). At least 9 patients, 8 adults and 1 child have been involved in this HUS outbreak, E. coli of the O104:H4 serotype being demonstrated in most patients. This outbreak is remarkable by its preponderance in adults and women, its aggressiveness with multiorgan involvement , i.e. the kidneys, brain, liver, pancreas, and skin. Pathophysiology, prognosis, and treatment of typical HUS are poorly defined, particularly in adults who are usually not involved in typical E. coli O157H7 HUS. The aim of the present study is to gain knowledge on these different aspects of the HUS, including response to therapy.
The purpose of the study is to determine if immunization with a recombinant E. coli protein, dscCfaE, is safe and immunogenic when administered through the skin using a patch.
