More than a billion people in the developing world lack access to safe and reliable sources of drinking water. Point use (POU) household water treatment technology allows improve quality their by treating it home. One emerging POU is biosand filter (BSF), household-scale, intermittently operated slow sand filter. Laboratory field studies examined Escherichia coli reductions achieved BSF. During two laboratory studies, mean E. were 94% they improved over period use, reaching maximum 99%....
Depression and chronic autoimmune thyroiditis are common diseases. The aim of this study was to determine whether the frequency depression is elevated in patients with normal thyroid function. A total 201 subjects were included, whom 107 94 participants healthy or had euthyroid thyroiditis, respectively. Serum hormone levels auto-antibodies measured all subjects. All evaluated Hamilton Rating Scale (HDRS). HDRS scores higher than participants. This suggests a possible association between...
The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and resistance patterns Aeromonas spp. in drinking water Istanbul, Turkey. We investigated a total 1,680 samples (840 tap 840 domestic tank samples) for strains between June 2002 October 2005. A 147 were isolated from 49 (6%) 98 (12%) samples. Antibiotic susceptibility determined by disc diffusion method, according CLSI (Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute) recommendation. Among strains, was: A. hydrophila 68 (46%), sobria 50 (34%),...
Between January 2001 and September 2006, a total of 459 <i>Escherichia coli</i> 226 <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> strains were isolated from blood samples patients with bacteremia who hospitalized at the Istanbul University Cerrahpasa Medical Faculty. Blood cultures analyzed Bactec 9120 system (Becton Dickinson, USA). Antimicrobic resistance <i>E. or <i>K. was determined by disk diffusion method according to Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute criteria....
Acinetobacter baumannii is the most important agent of nosocomial infections within genus. This gram-negative coccobacillus intrinsically resistant to many antibiotics used in antimicrobial therapy, and capable developing resistance including carbapenems. The objective this study was develop a multiplex real time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) kit for OXA subgroups A.baumannii, investigate distribution A.baumannii strains isolated from geographically different regions Turkey. A total 834...
A case of Abiotrophia defectiva-caused infective endocarditis is described. The patient was successfully treated with penicillin combined gentamicin. Due to the fastidious nature agent, there a need for special media isolation and moreover, future development susceptibility assays applicable organism.
Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) has emerged as one of the most troublesome pathogens in healthcare settings worldwide. The present study was conducted to analyze genes encoding resistance carbapenems and determine vitro activity colistin tigecycline against CRAB isolates from blood culture hospitalized patients at Istanbul University Cerrahpasa Medical School hospital.Between January 2012 June 2014, a total 72 were isolated by conventional methods cultures with bacteremia...
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent cardiac arrhythmia worldwide and associated with an increased risk of thromboembolism, ischemic stroke, impaired quality life, mortality.The latest research that shows prevalence incidence AF patients in Türkiye was Turkish Adults' Heart Disease Risk Factors study, which included 3,450 collected data until 2006/07.The Real Life Fibrillation Clinical Practice (TRAFFIC) study planned to present current data, reveal reflection new...
Emerging carbapenem-resistant
We aimed to investigate the clonal relationships, common sequence types, and carbapenemase genes in 177 non-repetitive blood culture isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii collected from patients at three university hospitals Turkey 2016. Molecular epidemiological characteristics were examined using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), multilocus typing (MLST) (Pasteur scheme-cpn60, fusA, gltA, pyrG, recA, rplB, rpoB). Multiplex PCR was used genes, including blaOXA-23-like, blaOXA-24-like,...
Emergence of high-level aminoglycoside and glycopeptide resistance causes more severe prognosis, higher mortality, recurrence in enterococcal infections. The present study was conducted to investigate the antimicrobial patterns, prevalence AMEs, erm van genes enterococci isolated from various clinical samples at Istanbul University, Cerrahpasa Medical School hospital.During period 2012-2013, a total 128 isolates collected were typed with API 20 strep test, antibiotic sensibilities analysed...
