Population Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Prediction for Tebipenem Pivoxil Treatment of Pediatric Shigellosis. [PDF]

Clin Transl Sci
ABSTRACT Increasing antimicrobial resistance poses a serious challenge for the treatment of Shigella infections, and there is an urgent need for alternative antibacterial treatments. We conducted a clinical trial to investigate the efficacy of oral tebipenem pivoxil, compared to intravenous ceftriaxone, in Bangladeshi children with shigellosis.

Antimicrobial resistance in shigellosis: A surveillance study among urban and rural children over 20 years in Bangladesh.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Antimicrobial resistance against shigellosis is increasingly alarming. However, evidence-based knowledge gaps regarding the changing trends of shigellosis in Bangladesh exist due to the scarcity of longitudinal data on antimicrobial resistance. Our study

Shigellosis seasonality and transmission characteristics in different areas of China: A modelling study

Infectious Disease Modelling, 2022
Objective: In China, the burden of shigellosis is unevenly distributed, notably across various ages and geographical areas. Shigellosis temporal trends appear to be seasonal. We should clarify seasonal warnings and regional transmission patterns. Method:
