Fecal Carriage of Extended-Spectrum-β-Lactamase/AmpC-Producing Escherichia coli in Horses. [PDF]
Extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) are widespread in human and animal populations and in the environment. Many different ESBL variants exist. The dissemination of ESBLs within and between populations and the environment is also largely influenced by genetic mobile elements (e.g., plasmids) that facilitate spread of these ESBLs. In order to identify

Estimating the transmission parameters of pneumococcal carriage in households [PDF]
This paper analyses Streptococcus pneumoniae transmission dynamics in households using longitudinal data on pneumococcal (Pnc) carriage in the United Kingdom. Ten consecutive swabs were taken at 4-week intervals from all members of 121 households.

Fecal carriage of multiresistant bacteria versus infection in ICU wards patients [PDF]
Healthcare-associated infections (HAI) constitute major health care problem from their frequency, cost and gravity. Fecal carriage of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing isolates has mainly been detected in HAI, and few studies have evaluated fecal carriage during non-outbreak situations and among patients in the community. This study was

Fecal Carriage of Staphylococcus aureus in the Hospital and Community Setting: A Systematic Review [PDF]
Staphylococcus aureus fecal carriage has been identified as a potential source for nosocomial transmission and a risk factor for disease development. This systematic review determined the overall S. aureus [including methicillin susceptible and resistant S.

Klebsiella pneumoniae in Gastrointestinal Tract and Pyogenic Liver Abscess
To determine the role of gastrointestinal carriage in Klebsiella pneumoniae liver abscess, we studied 43 patients. Bacterial isolates from liver and fecal samples from 10 patients with this condition and 7 healthy carriers showed identical serotypes and ...
