Antimicrobial resistance, flaa sequencing, and phylogenetic analysis of campylobacter isolates from broiler chicken flocks in greece
(2021)Human campylobacteriosis caused by thermophilic Campylobacter species is the most commonly reported foodborne zoonosis. Consumption of contaminated poultry meat is regarded as the main source of human infection. This study ... -
Bacteriology, antibiotic resistance and risk stratification of patients with culture-positive, community-acquired pleural infection
(2021)Background: Community-acquired pleural infection (CAPI) is a growing health problem worldwide. Although most CAPI patients recover with antibiotics and pleural drainage, 20% require surgical intervention. The use of ... -
Ceftazidime-avibactam to treat life-threatening infections by carbapenem-resistant pathogens in critically ill mechanically ventilated patients
(2020)Data on the effectiveness of ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) in critically ill, mechanically ventilated patients are limited. The present retrospective observational cohort study, which was conducted in two general intensive ... -
Comparative epidemiological study of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates during two time periods in a tertiary care hospital
(2014)Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a nosocomial pathogen of clinical importance carrying virulence and antibiotic resistance determinants. In the present study, phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of P. aeruginosa isolates ... -
Daptomycin for the treatment of osteomyelitis and orthopaedic device infections: real-world clinical experience from a European registry
(2016)Osteomyelitis is a serious infection predominantly caused by Gram-positive bacteria, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Orthopaedic device-related infections are complex and require a careful ... -
Emergence of a mupirocin-resistant, methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus clone associated with skin and soft tissue infections in Greece
(2021)Background: Staphylococcus aureus causes various infections, including skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs). In this study, methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) from SSTIs among patients in three tertiary-care ... -
Emm Types and clusters and macrolide resistance of pediatric group A streptococcal isolates in Central Greece during 2011-2017
(2020)Background The surveillance of emm types and macrolide susceptibility of group A streptococcus (GAS) in various areas and time periods enhances the understanding of the epidemiology of GAS infections and may guide treatment ... -
First description in Greece of mphC-positive staphylococci causing subclinical mastitis in Ewes
(2018)The aim of the present study was to describe the first mphC-positive staphylococci, including two Staphylococcus lentus (Sle-087lar and Sle-091lar) and one Staphylococcus xylosus (Sxy-228lar), isolated from samples of ... -
Identification of Brucella spp. isolates and discrimination from the vaccine strain Rev.1 by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry
(2020)Brucellosis' surveillance and control programs require robust laboratory techniques that can reliably identify and biotype Brucella strains and discriminate between vaccine and field infection. In the recent years, Matrix ... -
Isolation and identification of nontuberculous mycobacteria from hospitalized patients and drinking water samples—examination of their correlation by chemometrics
(2016)Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) have been found to be widely dispersed in the environment and are being considered potentially pathogenic for humans and animals, while reports of their human to human transmission are ... -
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in the hospitals of Central Greece
(2001)A total of 250 consecutive Staphylococcus aureus clinical isolates were collected during the period 1999-2000 from the five major hospitals of the district of Thessaly (Central Greece). Thirty seven (14.8%) of the isolates ... -
Microbial diversity in biodeteriorated Greek historical documents dating back to the 19th and 20th century: A case study
(2018)Paper documents in archives, libraries, and museums often undergo biodeterioration by microorganisms. Fungi and less often bacteria have been described to advance paper staining, so called “foxing” and degradation of paper ... -
Molecular Basis of Resistance to First-Line Drugs of Mycobacterium tuberculosis/canettii Strains in Greece
