Human bocavirus was detected in 57 (18.3%) of 312 children with acute respiratory infection (ARI) who required hospitalization Jordan. It also 30 (21.7%) 138 severe ARI, 27 (15.5%) 174 mild or moderate disease, and 41 (72%) other pathogens.
Human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) is the major viral cause of acute lower tract infections in children. Few data about molecular epidemiology developing countries, such as Jordan, are available. The frequency and severity caused by HRSV were assessed hospitalized Jordanian children <5 years age compared with other potential etiological agents. Overall a pathogen was detected 78% (254/326) 43% (140/326) nasopharyngeal aspirates. found more frequently during winter (January/February),...
The misuse of antibiotics is a worldwide public health concern. Behavioral Intervention programs that aim to reduce patients’ own request for during their visit primary care clinics an attractive strategy combat this problem. We tested the effectiveness behavioral modification method known as Tailoring Antimicrobial resistance Programs (TAP) in reducing by patients visiting mild upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs). A stratified cluster randomized design with two groups pre-post,...
The emergence of multidrug-resistant Gram negative bacteria has given rise to significant therapeutic challenges. These pathogens may have developed resistance tigecycline, which is an alternative antibiotic used empirically in the treatment serious infections. objectives this study were identify in-vitro activity tigecycline against strains isolated from clinical specimens and their related genes, at a university hospital. For this, 150 isolates cultures various collected. Bacterial...
Background Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is endemic in the Middle East, with countries such as Syria reporting high incidence rates. Objective This study aimed to assess trends of cutaneous Jordan from 2010 2016. Methods retrospective included all cases CL that had been reported Leishmaniasis Surveillance System Department Communicable Diseases at Ministry Health during period A total 1243 were and met case definition. Results (60.65% [754/1243] males 39.34% [489/1243] females) diagnosed...
Abstract Ventilator-associated pneumonia is a life threatening device related infection in intensive care units. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus considered common contagious pathogen causing and sepsis. To assess the prevalence of S comparison to other pathogens, their antibacterial sensitivity profile ventilator-associated pneumonia. Data regarding adults admitted unit, at Jordan University Science Technology Hospital, between 2012 2018 were extracted from computerized system....
Streptococcus anginosus group (SAG) may be unrecognized or misidentified in the Clinical Microbiology Laboratory resulting under-reporting. Consequently, their role as genuine pathogens remains underestimated.The aim of this study is to suggest a reasonable identification approach that suitable for laboratories limited resources, detect any possible emerging antimicrobial resistance, and assess clinical spectrum infections are caused solely by SAG.Our research included 190 bacterial isolates...
A male infant was born at 31 weeks of gestation by spontaneous vaginal delivery. He the second child a 25-year-old mother who had regular prenatal care and presented with preterm labor rupture membranes. The reported having flu-like symptoms low-grade fever myalgia over preceding week, for which she no evaluation or treatment. She received 2 doses intramuscular dexamethasone to enhance fetal lung maturity magnesium sulfate neuroprotection. baby delivered 24 hours later through green-tinged...
Microbial keratitis is a serious potentially blinding corneal infection. Contact lens wear remains the most common predisposing factor. Fungal represent only small fraction of overall number cases contact lens-associated microbial keratitis, however they are proportionally more severe.An 18-year-old female, who occasionally used eye cosmetic soft lenses, presented with pain, redness, and blurring vision in her left eye.The showed decreased visual acuity, central ulcer abscess, severe ciliary...
