Univariate analysis identified 7 risk factors associated with ERV colonization: hospitalization in ICU, use of antibiotics, use of 3 or more compounds, use of imipenem or colistin, >10 days of hospitalization prior to the study and year of hospitalization (before 2007 or after). Multivariate analysis by logistic binary regression showed that only the last two: >10 days of hospitalization prior to the study and year of hospitalization (before 2007 or after), were significantly associated to colonization by ERV.","PeriodicalId":520768,"journal":{"name":"Revista chilena de infectologia : organo oficial de la Sociedad Chilena de Infectologia","volume":" ","pages":"374-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2009-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40054854","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}

Common clinical features were cough (92%), fever (82%), malaise (74%) and respiratory distress (72%). At admission 40/45 children had hypoxemia. Chest-X ray showed interstitial pattern (69.3%), consolidation (51%) and hyperinsuflation (28.5%). Six patients had pleural effusion. Eighty four percent of patients had a favorable clinical outcome; eight children required admission to the PICU all of whom recovered.Conclusion: Respiratory infections associated with M. pneumoniae in our series of children had a highly variable and non-specific clinical spectrum.

The objective of this work is to describe six isolates of ESBL producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa, retrieved from intensive care patients. The susceptibility test was performed by diffusion. For the phenotypic detection of ESBL, the following was assessed: the difference between ceftazidime ceftazidime/clavulanic acid (CAZ-CAC) and the synergy between imipenem-ceftazidime (IMI-CAZ) and cefepime-ceftazidime/clavulanic acid -ceftazidime (FEP-CAC-CAZ). The presence of metallo-beta-lactamases (MBL) was discarded through the double disc imipenem-EDTA/mercaptoacetic-meropenem (IMI-EDTA/SMA-MER) method. Molecular characterization of ESBL was performed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with blaGES primers. Synergy IMI-CAZ was observed in the studied strains; ESBL type GES was confirmed in five of them. The strategic location of the discs and the evaluation of alert signals for the detection of ESBL is essential, thus contributing to the correct recommendation of treatment in the clinical report.","PeriodicalId":520768,"journal":{"name":"Revista chilena de infectologia : organo oficial de la Sociedad Chilena de Infectologia","volume":" ","pages":"331-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2009-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40054869","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}

The process of food irradiation has been extensively studied, nevertheless its use remains a matter of some controversy. Despite unanimous agreement within the medical community of the safety of this procedure, occasional concerns arise from the consumers. A common consumer misconception is that irradiation may turn the food \"radioactive\". A significant number of scientific studies on the topic were analyzed. We found no scientific study demonstrating that consumption of irradiated food might pose a risk to consumers. All studies conclude that food irradiation at the appropriate dose required to reduce contamination is safe and does not affect its nutritional value. In order to emphasize the issue we discuss the potential benefit vs harm of irradiation of food contaminated with E. coli 0157: H7. The association of this bacteria with severe disease and death has been clearly established in contrast with the lack of a demonstrated risk due to meat irradiation. We conclude that the risks of food irradiation remains \"unknown\" simply because, after four decades of research, none has been identified. In contrast to the risks of acquiring a food transmitted bacterial disease, the risk of irradiation is negligible.","PeriodicalId":520768,"journal":{"name":"Revista chilena de infectologia : organo oficial de la Sociedad Chilena de Infectologia","volume":" ","pages":"318-30"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2009-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40054868","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}

Thirty six per cent (23/64) patients were infected with CMV, of whom 32% (14/44) received kidney Tx and 9/20 (45%) received liver Tx. CMV disease occurred in 52% (12/23) of infected patients. CMV disease was characterized by fever (100%), anemia (50%), leucopenia (16.6%) and specific organ involvement (renal graft 60% liver graft 57.1%, lung 25%, intestine 16.6%). Variables significantly associated with infection were a CMV seronegative status (p = 0.035) and lower age 5.5 + 3.7 years old vs 8.3 + 4.4 years old (p = 0.01).Conclusions: Incidence of CMV infection was high in children receiving a solid organ transplant in our institution and near half of infected children developed CMV-associated disease.","PeriodicalId":520768,"journal":{"name":"Revista chilena de infectologia : organo oficial de la Sociedad Chilena de Infectologia","volume":" ","pages":"311-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2009-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40054867","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}
