    Author : Anna Lindblom; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ESBL; E. coli; recurrent infection; UTI; AMR; phylogroup; fimH30Rx;

    Abstract : Infections with Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae (EPE) are increasing globally. The most common EPE are the gut pathogens Escherichia coli (ESBL-E. coli) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (ESBL-K. pneumoniae). READ MORE

  2. 2. Escherichia coli flora and diarrhea in Nicaraguan children

    Author : Daniel Reyes Navarrete; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A combination of a phenotyping method (PhP typing) for the identification of clonal groups, and a genotyping method (PCR) for the identification of virulent strains of E. coli were used in order to obtain insight into diarrheal disease morbidity and epidemiology of diarrheagenic E. coli strains in children in León, Nicaragua.

  3. 3. Every bug counts : neonatal colonization and infection of Gram-negative bacilli : aspects on antibiotic resistance in Sweden and Ecuador

    Author : Viveka Nordberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Neonatal infections caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Gramnegative bacilli are associated with high morbidity and mortality. In order to perform targeted preventive interventions against the impacts of antibiotic resistance in neonates, it is crucial to study colonization, infection and the spread of EPE-bacteria.
