Prevalence, risk factors, and impact on clinical outcome of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli bacteraemia: a five-year study

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2015
Background: The impact of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) bacteraemia on outcome remains controversial. Methods: A retrospective analysis of the prevalence, risk factors, clinical features, and outcomes of all

Procalcitonin and Interleukin-10 May Assist in Early Prediction of Bacteraemia in Children With Cancer and Febrile Neutropenia

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
ObjectivesFebrile neutropenia (FN) causes treatment disruption and unplanned hospitalization in children with cancer. Serum biomarkers are infrequently used to stratify these patients into high or low risk for serious infection.

COMPARISON OF PRESEPSIN, PROCALCITONIN, INTERLEUKIN-8 AND C-REACTIVE PROTEIN IN PREDICTING BACTERAEMIA IN FEBRILE NEUTROPENIC ADULT PATIENTS WITH HAEMATOLOGICAL MALIGNANCIES

Mediterranean Journal of Hematology and Infectious Diseases, 2019
Bacterial infections represent life-threatening complications in patients with febrile neutropenia (FN). Biomarkers of infections may help to differentiate bacteraemia from non-bacteraemia FN.

Prevalence and 30-day all-cause mortality of carbapenem-and colistin-resistant bacteraemia caused by Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella pneumoniae: Description of a decade-long trend

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2019
Background: Bacteraemia due to carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria is challenging. This study examined the burden of carbapenem and colistin resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii bacteraemia in ...

Concurrent Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia in Plasmodium vivax malaria Infection: A report of two cases from western India

Journal of Vector Borne Diseases, 2023
Malaria and concurrent bacteraemia cases have been reported globally, mostly in association with Plasmodium falciparum malaria. In comparison, concurrent bacteraemia with Plasmodium vivax infected patients is reported rarely.

The species distribution, antimicrobial resistance and risk factors for poor outcome of coagulase-negative staphylococci bacteraemia in China

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2019
Objective Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are one of the major opportunistic pathogens and the incidence of CoNS bacteraemia is increasing. However, most of the CoNS-positive blood cultures are contaminants rather than true CoNS bacteraemia.

The Role of the Bacteroides spp. in Bacteraemia

Postępy Mikrobiologii, 2022
Anaerobic bacteraemia is not frequent (1.2–13.7%), but is associated with a high mortality rate of 16–27%. Anaerobic infections including bacteraemia nearly always arise from contamination by endogenous bacteria into contiguous or other sites like ...

Association between serum alkaline phosphatase and bacteraemia in haemodialysis outpatients: a multicentre retrospective cross-sectional study

BMJ Open, 2022
Objectives Elevated baseline serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) may correlate with higher medium-term to long-term mortality in the general population and in patients with chronic kidney disease.

Oral antibiotic therapy in people who inject drugs (PWID) with bacteraemia

Swiss Medical Weekly, 2020
Bacterial infections are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in people who inject drugs (PWID). Patients with bacteraemia have a particularly high risk of complications and are usually treated with intravenous antibiotics. Intravenous treatment is

Bacteraemia during Transurethral Resection of the Prostate: What Are the Risk Factors and Is It More Common than We Think? [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
The aim of this work was to investigate the microbial causes, incidence, duration, risk factors and clinical implications of bacteraemia occurring during transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) surgery to better inform prophylaxis strategies.
