(2017)In 2016, the International Society of Peritoneal Dialysis (ISPD) published guidelines that focus on the importance of both prevention and treatment of peritonitis. For once more, the need for annual reporting of peritonitis ... -
Predominance of a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus clone susceptible to erythromycin and several other non-β-lactam antibiotics in a Greek hospital
(2001)A clone of heterogeneously methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates susceptible to erythromycin, ciprofloxacin, clindamycin, co-trimoxazole, nitrofurantoin, rifampicin, tetracycline and vancomycin, ... -
Predominance of international clone 2 OXA-23-producing-Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates in Greece, 2015: results of a nationwide study
(2017)In a previous nationwide study in Greece, OXA-58 was the sole carbapenemase present among carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) isolated between 2000 and 2009. In this study, the antibiotic resistances, ... -
Prevalence and mechanisms of resistance to fluoroquinolones in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli isolates recovered from dogs suffering from otitis in Greece
(2018)The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and the implicated mechanisms of resistance against selected veterinary fluoroquinolones (enrofloxacin, marbofloxacin and pradofloxacin) among 101 Pseudomonas aeruginosa ... -
Prevalence, patterns, association with biofilm formation, effects on milk quality, and risk factors for antibiotic resistance of staphylococci from bulk-tank milk of goat herds
(2021)The objectives of this work were to study the prevalence and the patterns of antibiotic resistance of staphylococcal isolates from bulk-tank milk of goat herds across Greece, to assess pos-sible associations of the presence ... -

A single dose of meropenem is superior to ciprofloxacin in preventing infections after transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsies in the era of quinolone resistance
(2016)Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of meropenem single dose before transrectal prostate biopsy, instead of ciprofloxacin in the era of fluoroquinolones resistance. Methods: This prospective study included patients with ... -
Synergistic antimicrobial activity of supplemented medical-grade honey against pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm formation and eradication
(2020)Biofilms hinder wound healing. Medical-grade honey (MGH) is a promising therapy because of its broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and the lack of risk for resistance. This study investigated the inhibitory and eradicative ... -
