Carbapenems are the choice of treatment in infections caused by multidrug resistant Enterobacteriaceae. In recent years carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae isolates due to carbapenemases have been increasingly reported worldwide. Multicenter studies on scarce Turkey. The aim this study was determine distribution from different parts Turkey as a part European Survey Carbapenemase Producing (EuSCAPE) project. Beginning November 2013, at least one agents, namely imipenem, meropenem, and...
It was recently proposed that Candida parapsilosis represents a complex composed of three closely related species, i.e., C. sensu stricto, orthopsilosis, and metapsilosis. The aim this study to describe the distribution isolates among clinical samples. We also evaluated antifungal susceptibility profiles, in vitro presence lipase secreted aspartyl proteinase, as well their ability grow total parenteral nutrition (TPN) solution, biofilm production. A 413 non-C. albicans were obtained from...
Objective To evaluate the serotype distribution and antibiotic resistance in pneumococcal infections adults to provide a perspective regarding coverage of both current future vaccines.Patients methods This passive surveillance study was conducted with Streptococcus pneumoniae strains isolated from specimens patients pneumonia (materials bronchoalveolar lavage), bacteraemia, meningitis, pleuritis peritonitis between 2015 2018. Serogrouping serotyping were performed by latex particle...
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are found in the development stages of carcinogenesis.Fifty two patients with gastric cancer and 35 controls were enrolled this trial.IMA, MDA, Total Oxidant Status (TOS), Antioxidant (TAS) Oxidative Stress Index (OSI) evaluated.There was a significant increase IMA MDA levels patient group (0.405±0.111, 0.271±0.066;p= 0.0001 0.207±0.251,0.077±0.103;p= 0.004 respectively).TOS also higher but it not statistically different.TAS lower there difference OSI...
Successful vaccination policies for protection from invasive pneumococcal diseases (IPD) dependent on determination of the exact serotype distribution in each country. We aimed to identify serotypes strains causing IPD children Turkey and emphasize change before after with 7-valent conjugate vaccine (PCV-7) was included PCV-13 newly changed Turkish National Immunization Program. Streptococcus pneumoniae were isolated at 22 different hospitals Turkey, which provide healthcare services...
This study presents data on species distribution and antifungal susceptibility profiles of Candida bloodstream isolates obtained from a Turkish Tertiary Care Hospital during 4-year period. All hospitalized patients who had ≥ 1 blood culture positive for yeast their hospital stay January 2005 through 2009 were included in this study. identified to level using CHROMagar ID 32 C. Fluconazole voriconazole testing was performed the disk diffusion method according CLSI M44-A. In vitro activity...
Background: Lyme borreliosis is a tick-borne, multi-systemic infectious disease that thought to be wide spread in Turkey even though studies on its seroprevalence are limited.Aims: To determine the of part north-eastern Tur-key (in city Trabzon), and identify possible relationships between seropositivity various factors such as location, gender, age group, occupation, income, educational level.Study Design: Retrospective cross-sectional study.Methods: A total 884 blood samples collected from...
Objectives: To determine the serotype distribution of pneumococcus causing invasive pneumococcal disease (meningitidis, bacteremia and empyema) in children Turkey, to observe potential changes this time guide effective vaccine strategies.Methods: We surveyed S. pneumoniae with conventional bacteriological techniques real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) samples cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), blood pleural fluid. strains were isolated from 33 different hospitals which are giving health...
Hepatitis C virus (HCV), the major cause of transfusion-associated hepatitis, is an important public health problem in world as well Turkey. HCV grouped six distinct genotypes and a large number closely-related subtypes. Genotyping tool for providing epidemiological data, prediction prognosis, optimization antiviral therapy. This study was carried out to determine distribution hepatitis patients residing different provinces Eastern Black Sea Region, A total 304 HCV-RNA positive cases (151...
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, which is a non-fermentative gram-negative bacillus, has an increasing importance in nosocomial and opportunistic infections. Since it exhibits resistance to numerous broad-spectrum antibiotics such as aminoglycosides, beta-lactams tetracyclines, may considerably limit empirical treatment options. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (SXT) recommended the first-line therapy of S.maltophilia infections thanks its high potency usefulness range patients. In recent years,...
A rapid, practical, and accurate identification of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae isolates is crucial for the implementation appropriate infection control measures proper treatment infections. For this purpose, a large number phenotypic test methods have been developed, although none has 100% sensitivity specificity. Variations in specificity these tests based on type beta-lactamase enzymes carried by that might result differences between regions countries. The aim study was to...
The extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing bacteria have been isolated at increasing frequency worldwide. Expression of ESBL is often associated with multidrug resistance and dissemination by plasmids. During a two-month period in 2000, 133 clinical isolates enterobacterial strains were randomly collected from outpatients inpatients university hospital Turkey. producing determined double-disk synergy (DDS) testing. Twenty (15%) including Escherichia coli (n = 9), Klebsiella...
