d mannose/diarrhea

D-mannose-resistant hemagglutination with human and bovine red blood cells was determined in 284 cultures of opportunistis enterobacteria isolated from 99 patients with acute intestinal infections and in 55 cultures isolated from 27 practically healthy children aged up to 1 year. In 16 sick children

Escherichia coli 73-1 (serotype O73:H33) and 5-2 (serotype O89:H-) isolated from patients with diarrhea adhered to tissue culture cells (HeLa and HEp-2) as well as coverslips (plastic and glass) in a diffuse pattern. Adherence of strain 73-1 was mediated by a 110-kbp plasmid designated pEDA1 and

OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety of dietary supplement "Manosar®" composed of D-mannose (2 g), 24 h prolonged release, associated with Proanthocyanidin (PAC) (140 mg), ursolic acid (7.98 mg), A, C, and D vitamins and the oligoelement zinc, versus 240 mg of PAC in recurrent urinary tract

The name Vibrio hollisae (synonym = Special Bacteriology group EF-13) is proposed for a new group of 16 strains that occurred in stool cultures of patients with diarrhea. V. hollisae is a small gram-negative rod, which is motile with a single polar flagellum. No lateral or peritrichous flagella were

Objective: We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine whether D-mannose reduces urinary tract infection (UTI) recurrence (i.e. cumulative incidence) in adult women with recurrent UTI compared to other prevention agents. Secondary outcomes

In 1983, the vernacular name Enteric Group 77 was coined for a group of strains that had been referred to our laboratory as "possible Vibrio cholerae except for gas production." By DNA-DNA hybridization (hydroxyapatite, 32P), 8 of 10 strains of Enteric Group 77 were very highly related to the

Bacteroides fragilis has been isolated from several human and non-human monomicrobial and mixed infections. In this study, some virulence markers and the antimicrobial susceptibility of bacteria of the B. fragilis group isolated from children's stools were evaluated. All the 64 isolates showed the

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (STa+) strains were isolated from adult bovine with diarrhea. These strains did not express any known ETEC-specific adhesins. Although hemagglutination with rat and sheep erythrocytes was observed in the presence of D-mannose (MRHA), these strains also showed

Forty-one sporadic cases of non-O group 1 Vibrio cholerae gastroenteritis were detected in Orán, Salta, between February 1992 and February 1995. The frequency of isolation was 0.9% of the diarrhea cases. Out of 41 patients, 21 (51.2%) were older than 15 years and 25 (60.9%) were male. All the

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) are associated with hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome. These illnesses are typically seen in young children, but are rare before 6 mo of age. The cause of this age restriction is unclear. Because bacterial adherence to intestinal mucosa is

Aspartylglucosaminuria (McKusick 208400) is a lysosomopathy associated with aspartylglucosaminidase (L-aspartamido-beta-N-acetylglucosamine amidohydrolase, EC 3.5.1.26) deficiency. It has been most frequently encountered in Finland, where the regional incidence may be as high as 1 in 3600 births. In

An Escherichia coli strain (serotype O127a:H2) that had been isolated from a child with diarrhea in Thailand and that was negative for the virulence factors of the four categories of diarrheagenic E. coli (enterotoxigenic, enteropathogenic, enteroinvasive, and enterohemorrhagic) and that showed an

In 1985 the vernacular name Enteric Group 90 was coined for a small group of strains that had been referred to our laboratory as probable strains of Salmonella but did not agglutinate in Salmonella typing antisera. By DNA-DNA hybridization (hydroxyapatite method, 32P), seven strains of Enteric Group
