Abstract Background Urinary tract infections (UTIs) cause significant disease and economic burden. Uncomplicated UTIs (uUTIs) occur in otherwise healthy individuals without underlying structural abnormalities, with uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) accounting for 80% of cases. With recent transitions healthcare toward virtual visits, data on multidrug resistance (MDR) (resistant to ≥3 antibiotic classes) by care setting are needed inform empiric treatment decision making. Methods We...
Abstract Background We describe prescribing and dispensing patterns of influenza antivirals among patients with laboratory-confirmed within U.S. urgent care emergency department settings. Methods A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted for encounters from four large, integrated health systems participating in the VISION network adult presenting acute respiratory illness to cares or departments positive virus test results during 2023–2024 season. The analysis restricted at higher...
The 2023-2024 influenza season had predominant A(H1N1)pdm09 virus activity, but A(H3N2) and B viruses co-circulated. Seasonal vaccine strains were well-matched to these viruses.
Overuse of antibiotics contributes to antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and is a growing threat human health worldwide. Previous work suggests link between use in poultry AMR extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (E coli) urinary tract infections (UTIs). However, few US-based studies exist, none have comprehensively assessed both foodborne environmental pathways using advanced molecular spatial epidemiologic methods quasi-experimental design. Recently, California enacted Senate Bill 27...
