ABSTRACT In November 2010, NDM-1-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (NDMKP) was identified for the first time in South Korea from four patients with no history of traveling abroad who stayed 21 to 205 days a tertiary care hospital. All were sequence type (ST) 340 and had nearly identical XbaI pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) patterns. The bla NDM-1 -carrying plasmids IncN group, sizes ranging 50 200 kb. These findings suggest that NDMKP already been introduced into before this clustering found.

This study aimed to characterize the latest antimicrobial resistance patterns and genetic diversity of Campylobacter spp. isolated from patients with acute diarrhea in Korea. In total, 371 clinical isolates (361 jejuni 10 coli) were collected 106 medical institutions six provinces during seasonal peak (April-September 2022) South We then assessed their susceptibility eight agents performed multilocus sequence typing (MLST). investigated (AMR) profiles tetracycline (32.3%), nalidixic acid...
Several studies reported that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 antibody levels change over 6 months in participants receiving the vaccination. From enrolled 272 health care workers (HCWs), blood samples were obtained at 2, 16, and 24 weeks after second vaccination dose. In 267 noninfected HCWs, neutralizing antibodies decreased by 23.9%, anti-spike/receptor binding domain 53.8% weeks. We observed no significant difference reduction between sexes; however, younger individuals,...

A 42-yr-old man with hepatitis B virus associated liver cirrhosis was admitted to the emergency room because of multiple seizures, a history chills and myalgia over previous 2 weeks, 3 days melena.He febrile temperature 38.0°C.There were no symptoms signs related genitourinary system, skin, or joints.Three sets blood cultures obtained oxidase-positive, gram-negative diplococci detected after 25.9-26.9hr incubation in all aerobic vials.The organism positive for catalase oxidase, identified as...
Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of tacrolimus is essential because narrow therapeutic range and poor correlation dose to blood concentration. Affinity Column Mediated Immunometric Assay (ACMIA) does not require a pretreatment steps in measurement tacrolimus. In this study, we evaluated the performance assay using ACMIA (Dimension RxL Max, Dade Behring).The imprecision, linearity detection limits interferences by bilirubin chyle, with hematocrit for were according Clinical Laboratory...
Background Arterial blood gas analysis (ABGA) is a useful test that estimates the acid–base status of patients. However, numerically reported results make rapid interpretation difficult. To overcome this problem, we have developed an algorithm automatically interprets ABGA results, and assessed validity for applications in clinical laboratory services. Methods The was based on well-established guidelines using three (pH, PaCO 2 [HCO 3 − ]) as variables. Ninety-nine were analysed by...

Cryptococcus is an opportunistic pathogen that mainly affects immunocompromised hosts and, less frequently, immunocompetent hosts. It causes serious morbidity and mortality due to systemic infections such as meningoencephalitis pulmonary infection. Urinary involvement of sometimes reported among cases disseminated cryptococcosis in AIDS patients, but no reports have been published Korea. We report two cryptococcuria developed a 71-year old female with diabetes liver cirrhosis 50-year male...
This study is essential for comprehending the zoonotic transmission, antimicrobial resistance, and genetic diversity of enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC). To improve our understanding EPEC, this focused on analyzing comparing genomic characteristics EPEC isolates from humans companion animals in Korea. The whole genome 26 patients with diarrhea 20 Korea were sequenced using Illumina HiSeq X (Illumina, USA) Oxford Nanopore MinION (Oxford Technologies, UK) platforms. Most atypical did...
국내 결핵은 2001년 이후 매년 30,000-36,000명의 신환이 지속 적으로 발생하였고, 2009년에는 35,845명으로 신환발병률이 인구 10만 명당 73.5명이며 70대 이상(21.0%)과 20대(16.0%)의 발병률이 높은 후진국형 감염양상을 보이고 있다[1]. 일차 결핵약제 치료를 할 수 없는 항결핵제 내성, rifampin (RIF)과 isoniazid (INH)에 내 성인 다제내성 결핵(multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, MDR-TB)[2], 주사제 중 하나 이상 그리고 fluoroquinolone제 이상에 광범위내성 결핵(extensively drug-resistant TB) [3]에서 더 나 아가 모든 항결핵약제에 내성을 보이는 결핵(totally [4]까지 보고되고 있어서 결핵의 치료와 관리에 큰 걸림돌이 된다. 국제보건기구(World Health Organization, WHO)의 2002년 에서 2007년 사이 83개국의...

Apolipoprotein monitoring is useful for diagnosing cardiovascular diseases, as they are risk factors of arteriosclerosis and other neutral fat-related diseases. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) advantageous simultaneous apolipoprotein quantification, differentiation, standardization including their isoforms. However, fast straightforward sample preparation that retains quantification accuracy remains challenging in clinical MS.We developed a assay serum A-I (ApoA-I),...
