| salmonellosis in indonesia: phage type distribution of salmonella typhi. | the distribution of phage types was studied among 577 strains of salmonella typhi from indonesia. chemotype, colicinogeny, and tetrathionate reductase activity were also studied for most of these strains. the current phage type formula for java was determined to be: a, d2, d6, e1a, e2, m1, and 46, but two other large groups of strains were also found, i + iv and degraded vi+ strains. significant differences in s. typhi strain distributions were noted between two localities on java with respect t ... | 1979 | 762401 |
| diagnosis of typhoid fever by detection of salmonella typhi antigen in urine. | a monoclonal antibody specific for group d salmonella antigen 9 was used in an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) for detecting the antigen in urine specimens collected from patients with clinical typhoid fever in jakarta, indonesia. the elisa had a sensitivity of 95% in identifying patients in whom salmonella typhi was isolated from hemocultures, 73% in patients in whom s. typhi was isolated from stool specimens, and 40% in patients in whom the organism was isolated from bone ma ... | 1992 | 1401030 |

| intragenic recombination in a flagellin gene: characterization of the h1-j gene of salmonella typhi. | salmonella typhi, the etiologic agent of typhoid fever, typically has only a phase-1 flagellar antigen, d, but some isolates, found only in indonesia, have antigen j instead, and may have a second flagellar antigen, z66. it appears that intragenic recombination involving a directly repeated 11 bp sequence in the h1-d flagellin gene changed the flagellar antigen to j, by deleting 261 bp in its central, antigenically determinant, part. sequencing of the hypervariable regions of genes h1-d and h1-j ... | 1989 | 2583095 |
| the widal slide agglutination test, a valuable rapid diagnostic test in typhoid fever patients at the infectious diseases hospital of jakarta. | the widal slide agglutination test was evaluated as a rapid diagnostic test in typhoid fever patients at the infectious diseases hospital, jakarta, indonesia from 1980-1982. the results of the test can be available within 45 minutes of patient admission. the study showed that, among 229 patients with salmonella typhi-positive typhoid fever and 179 control fever patients, when the widal o antibody titer was greater than or equal to 1:20 the sensitivity was 53%, the specificity 98%, the positive p ... | 1986 | 3962968 |
| chloramphenicol resistant strains in salmonellosis in jakarta. | during an observation period of 20 months (from january 1978 to september 1979) 123 children with clinically suspected salmonellosis were admitted to the department of pediatrics, 70 males and 53 females varying in age from 17 days to 14 years. s. typhi or s. enteriditis was isolated from the stool, urine, blood or cerebrospinal fluid in 85% (105/123) of the cases. the results of the microbiologic examination showed that 28 out of the 105 cases (27%) were resistant to chloramphenicol of which th ... | 1980 | 7013096 |
| outcome in three groups of patients with typhoid fever in indonesia between 1948 and 1990. | the outcome in three groups of patients with bacteriologically confirmed typhoid fever caused by salmonella typhi, treated during three episodes between 1948 and 1990 in java, indonesia, was compared by retrospective analysis of hospital records. the study population consisted of three groups of patients. group i (n = 50) was treated in batavia (the present jakarta) from 1948 to 1950, group ii (n = 61) in yogyakarta from 1952 to 1956, group iii (n = 105) in semarang from 1989 to 1990. main outco ... | 1999 | 10223217 |
| surveillance of bacterial pathogens of diarrhea disease in indonesia. | emerging or reemerging infections due to bacterial disease may be a local, regional or global problem. bacterial acute gastroenteritis is a potential cause of substantial morbidity in travelers and deployed u.s. military personnel. a surveillance study was conducted over a two-year period in indonesia among 6760 patients with debilitating diarrheal diseases. of the 6,760 patients, 587 (9%) of the patient stools were positive for bacteria. the proportions of bacteria isolated from the 587 patient ... | 2002 | 12493168 |
| antimicrobial resistance of bacterial pathogens associated with diarrheal patients in indonesia. | the antimicrobial susceptibility patterns for 2,812 bacterial pathogens isolated from diarrheal patients admitted to hospitals in several provinces in the cities of jakarta, padang, medan, denpasar, pontianak, makassar, and batam, indonesia were analyzed from 1995 to 2001 to determine their changing trends in response to eight antibiotics: ampicillin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, chloramphenicol, tetracycline, cephalothin, ceftriaxone, norfloxacin, and ciprofloxacin. vibrio cholerae o1 (37.1%) ... | 2003 | 12887025 |
| risk factors for typhoid and paratyphoid fever in jakarta, indonesia. | the proportion of paratyphoid fever cases to typhoid fever cases may change due to urbanization and increased dependency on food purchased from street vendors. for containment of paratyphoid a different strategy may be needed than for typhoid, because risk factors for disease may not coincide and current typhoid vaccines do not protect against paratyphoid fever. | 2004 | 15173152 |
| identification of typhoid fever and paratyphoid fever cases at presentation in outpatient clinics in jakarta, indonesia. | in jakarta, indonesia, over 80% of patients with typhoid fever or paratyphoid fever are treated in outpatient settings. in a community-based prospective passive surveillance study, we identified 59 typhoid, 23 paratyphoid fever and 259 non-enteric fever outpatients, all blood culture-confirmed. we compared their symptoms with the aim of developing a clinical prediction rule that may help direct empirical antibiotic treatment to cases with suspected (para)typhoid fever, rather than all febrile pa ... | 2005 | 15837356 |
