Fournier's gangrene is a rare but rapidly progressive necrotizing infection that results from the synergistic action of multiple aerobic and anaerobic organisms colonized on the skin and in the anogenital area.
INTRODUCTION: Urinary tract infections due to Candida species are mostly encountered in hospital environment.
Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) is an emerging pathogen with a devastating impact on organ transplant recipients (OTRs).
INTRODUCTION: Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is a common pediatric urologic disorder.
BACKGROUND: Urinary Tract Infection is one of the commonest infections which affect humans.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate, in men presenting with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), the prevalence of sperm autosome and sex chromosome aneuploidy.
Recurrent urinary tract infection involves mainly women and exhibits an ecological as well as economical risk.
OBJECTIVE: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the most common serious bacterial infection in infants.
MADRID, SPAIN (Press Release) - March 21, 2015 - A new study shows how changing working methods in surgery can significantly reduce bacterial resistance to antibiotics, while maintaining protection against infection and reducing costs by up to 60%. This work is being presented at the European Association of Urology conference in Madrid.
OBJECTIVE: To determine risks factors associated with severe sepsis or septic shock (SS) at admission in patients with community-onset bacteraemic urinary tract infection (CO-BUTI) including the impact of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria.
PURPOSE: Improved identification of children with vesicoureteral reflux at risk for recurrent febrile urinary tract infection may impact management decisions.
OBJECTIVE: Cranberry prophylaxis of recurrent urinary tract infection in infants has proven effective in the experimental model of the adult.
PURPOSE: In our previous study, type 2 diabetic chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with glomerular filtration rates of < 30 mL/min upon hospitalization for urinary tract infection (UTI) were at a risk for acute kidney injury.
INTRODUCTION: To determine the parameters affecting the outcome of ureteroneocystostomy (UNC) procedure for vesicoureteral reflux (VUR).
Bifidobacterium-a commensal of the human intestine is considered non-pathogenic and has been advocated as a probiotic due to its potential beneficial effects.
BACKGROUND: Elderly trauma patients are at high risk for urinary tract infection (UTI).
SCOTTSDALE, AZ USA (UroToday.com) - Dr. Rebecca Brotman gave a very informative lecture on the vaginal microbiome and its implications to clinical practice.
SCOTTSDALE, AZ USA (UroToday.com) - This was the second of two posters that addressed the poor yield of invasive and expensive urologic testing in patients with recurrent UTIs. Despite the fact that current guidelines are lacking, it is common clinical practice to perform cystoscopy and various imaging in women with recurrent UTIs.
