Availability of secondary healthcare data for conducting pharmacoepidemiology studies in Colombia: A systematic review

Pharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 8, Issue 5, October 2020., 2020
Abstract Real‐world evidence (RWE) is emerging as a fundamental component of the post‐marketing evaluation of medicinal products. Even though the focus on RWE studies has increased in Colombia, the availability of secondary data sources to perform this type of research is not well documented.

Clindamycin resistance of skin derived Staphylococcus pseudintermedius is higher in dogs with a history of antimicrobial therapy

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 31, Issue 4, Page 305-e75, August 2020., 2020
Background – In the Netherlands there is a lack of data regarding resistance of Staphylococcus pseudintermedius to the systemic antimicrobial drugs used for the treatment of superficial pyoderma. Objectives – To assess antimicrobial resistance, with emphasis on resistance to clindamycin and meticillin, in clinical isolates of S.

Association of bacteria in pancreatic fistula fluid with complications after pancreatic surgery

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 432-437, June 2020., 2020
This study showed that, despite the absence of intestinal lumen opening, pancreatic fistulas after distal pancreatectomy frequently contain intestinal bacteria, which markedly worsen the clinical outcome. Understanding the pathogenetic mechanism behind this high prevalence of intestinal bacteria within distal pancreatectomy‐associated pancreatic ...
