epidemiologic aspects of shigellosis and other causes of dysentery in thailand. | nearly 20% of children seen in the outpatient department of children's hospital in bangkok, thailand, for diarrheal disease had bloody diarrhea. shigella species and enteroinvasive escherichia coli--isolated from 13% and 2% of children with diarrhea, respectively--were the most frequent causes of bloody diarrhea. campylobacter species and nontyphoidal salmonella species were also isolated frequently but were much less often associated with bloody diarrhea. shigella species were rarely isolated f ... | 1991 | 2047642 |
response to antimicrobial therapy for shigellosis in thailand. | shigella species have been one of the most common causes of acute diarrhea in bangkok, thailand. the incidence of shigellosis increased steadily from 1984 to 1988. the majority of shigella species isolated from specimens from patients with acute diarrhea in bangkok in 1988 were resistant to both ampicillin and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (tmp-smz). shigella flexneri was the most commonly isolated organism and had the highest rate of resistance to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, tmp-smz, and tetra ... | 1991 | 2047660 |
clinical and microbiologic features of shigella and enteroinvasive escherichia coli infections detected by dna hybridization. | to determine the clinical and microbiologic features of shigella and enteroinvasive escherichia coli (eiec) infections, we investigated 410 children with diarrhea and 410 control children without diarrhea who were seen at children's hospital, bangkok, thailand, from january to june 1985. shigella spp. were isolated from 96 (23%) and eiec were isolated from 17 (4%) of 410 children with diarrhea and from 12 (3%) and 6 (1%) of 410 control children, respectively. the isolation rates of both pathogen ... | 1988 | 3045152 |
shigella from humans in thailand during 1993 to 2006: spatial-time trends in species and serotype distribution. | in thailand during 1993-2006, a total of 9063 shigella isolates from different medical centers were serotyped and trends over time and spatial clustering analyzed. of 3583 cases with age information, 1315 (37%) cases were from children between 0 and 4 years and 684 (19%) from children between 5 and 8 years. most infections were recorded during 1993-1994 (> 1500 per year), decreasing to < 200 in 2006. the relative species distribution also changed. during 1993-1994, shigella flexneri accounted fo ... | 2008 | 19086804 |
