“…The predominant extended spectrum beta-lactamase producers were E. coli,32.99% (95% CI: 23.28–42.69) and K. pneumoniae, 11.43% (95% CI:7.98–14.89). Prolonged hospitalization was linked to carbapenemase producing Enterobacteriaceae colonization with the odds of 14.77 (95% CI: -1.35–30.90) at admission and 45.63 (95% CI: 0.86–92.12) after ≥7 days of admission. …”

“…Here we evaluated the effect of RO 25-6981 on hippocampal neuronal apoptosis in an infant rat model of meningitis due to Streptococcus pneumoniae. Animals were randomized for treatment with RO 25-6981 at a dosage of either 0.375 mg (15 mg/kg; n = 28) or 3.75 mg (150 mg/kg; n = 15) every 3 h or an equal volume of sterile saline (250 μl; n = 40) starting at 12 h after infection. …”

“…The concentrations of penicillin G which (a) reduced the net rate of multiplication, (b) exerted a net bactericidal effect, and (c) killed the organisms at a maximal rate, have been defined for a total of 41 strains of α- and β-hemolytic streptococci, Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus albus, Diplococcus pneumoniae, and the Reiter treponoma. 2. The concentration which killed the organisms at a maximal rate was 2 to 20 times the minimal effective level ("sensitivity" as ordinarily defined). …”

“…In twelve consecutive experiments the three diets which gave rise to the large numbers of lactobacilli in the stools also conferred on the mice a much higher resistance to experimental infection with Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae, than did the semi-synthetic diets. However, direct evidence has not yet been obtained that the two kinds of phenomena were causally related. …”
