  1. 16. Antibiotic resistance and environmental factors : focusing on the situation in Odisha, India

    Author : Krushna Chandra Sahoo; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : environment;

    Abstract : Background: The rise of antibiotic resistant bacteria is a major challenge to global public health. The environment has a significant impact on health and infectious diseases; however, there is a lacuna of information on the relationship between the environment and antibiotic resistance. READ MORE

  2. 17. Lessons from diagnosis-prescribing and antibiotic resistance surveillance in Ujjain, India : the lull before the storm

    Author : Ashish Pathak; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : antibiotic prescribing;

    Abstract : Background: The evolution of antibiotic resistance is a global public health crisis building over decades. In this build-up antibiotic use has been the main driver for antibiotic resistance. READ MORE

  3. 18. Epidemiological and molecular biological studies of multi-resistant methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus

    Author : Maria Lindqvist; Anita Hällgren; Barbro Isaksson; Lennart E. Nilsson; Christina Åhrén; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Antibiotic resistance is increasingly recognised as a major problem and threat. During the last decades Gram-positive bacteria in general, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in particular, have been in focus both concerning matters of antibiotic resistance and as pathogens causing health care-associated (nosocomial) infections.
