Coli species that cause UTI. The objective of this study was to detect Aminoglycosides resistance among E. Coli strains isolated from patients with urinary tract infection. Method: A total of 70 urine specimens were collected from patient with symptoms of urinary tract infection in sterile urine containers, and then inoculated in CLED media, incubated at 37c for 24 hours. E. Coli species were identified according to their colonial morphology, indirect gram staining reaction, and biochemical tests. Identified species were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility against the following aminoglycosides: Amikacin, Kanamycin, Streptomycin, Gentamicin, and Tobramycin using Kirby-bauer disc diffusion method. Results: The study revealed that 55.7% of urinary tract infections were caused by E. Coli. The study also showed that 12.8% of isolated E. Coli species were resistant to Amikacin, 28.2% to Gentamicin, 43.6% to Streptomycin, 48.7% to Kanamycin, and 53.8% to Tobramycin. Conclusion: The study concluded that the overall resistance of isolated E. coli species to aminoglycosides was 37.4% the most powerful Aminoglycoside against E. Coli species was Amikacin.","PeriodicalId":309690,"journal":{"name":"South Asian Research Journal of Applied Medical Sciences","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121908346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study analyzes the path of children with cancer to the Hematology-Oncology Department of the Mother and Child Center of the Chantal Biya Foundation in Yaounde. Materials and methods: We conducted a descriptive cross-sectional study from November 2015 to July 2016 including all children aged 0 to 18 years with a confirmed diagnosis of cancer. Data was collected using a questionnaire. Results: We had 155 patients, with a sex ratio of 1.38. The median age was 6 years, with peaks of 2 months and 18 years. The must represented symptoms was fever (29.2%), followed by abdominal swelling (19.4%). The median number of resorts before the CME was 3 (2-4) with a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 15. 64.5% of children were brought to consultation in primary care to a general practitioner. 91 patients had at least three remedies: doctors (69.5%), healers and others (21.8%). The referral of children was mainly made by a pediatrician (29.5%). The average time between the onset of symptoms and consultation was 8 months. Patients came mostly at stages 3 and 4 at 51% and 39.4%, respectively. Conclusion: The majority of patients go to modern medicine. The time of arrival at the Service is long, the stages to the diagnosis very advanced.","PeriodicalId":309690,"journal":{"name":"South Asian Research Journal of Applied Medical Sciences","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124439780","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We examined socio-demographic characteristics of male patients with substance use disorder in drug addiction treatment center in Dhaka city. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in Central Drug Addiction Treatment Center (CTC), Tejgaon, Dhaka, Bangladesh from January 2012 to June 2013. Data were collected by administrating a semi-structured questionnaire comprised of socio demographic variables, family characteristics and substance related variables. A total of 136 male patients were interviewed purposively by face to face from outpatient department of CTC. Substance use disorder was established on the basis of DSM-IV TR by the Structured instrument SCID-CV (Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis-1 DisordersClinical Version). Patients with comorbid psychiatric disorder and other organic brain disorders were not included in this study. Results: The mean age of 136 patients was 30.63±7.23; about 42% were in 26-30 years age group, most respondents (48.5%) were unemployed, 95% were Muslim, and 70% urban dwellers. About 85% (115) of the patients started their using drugs by cannabis, about 9% took Phensidyl as a first drug, about 59% (80) took more than one drugs. In this study, 76 out of 136 patients took drugs by smoking which constitute 55.9%, followed by injections (37.5%). Conclusions: Cannabis was the most common as the first illicit drug used by the patients. The result suggested that 18-30-year age group was most commonly abusing time. Preventive programs could be targeted on this age group.","PeriodicalId":309690,"journal":{"name":"South Asian Research Journal of Applied Medical Sciences","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124945200","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
