A total of 144 enterococci (Enterococcus faecalis, n=130, Enterococcus faecium, n=14) isolated and confirmed by biochemical tests at the department of Microbiology, Armed Forces Institute of Pathology, Rawalpindi, for a period of three years were included in the study. The antimicrobial susceptibility tests of isolated organisms were performed by standard disc diffusion method as recommended by NCCLS.

She became symptom-free in four weeks and the number of ova passed in stool and urine decreased.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/63177683/Combined_Schistosoma_mansoni_and_Schistosoma_haematobium_infection","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2021-12-04T02:19:20.649-08:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":7844421,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[],"slug":"Combined_Schistosoma_mansoni_and_Schistosoma_haematobium_infection","translated_slug":"","page_count":null,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":7844421,"first_name":"Abid","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Mahmood","page_name":"AbidMahmood2","domain_name":"independent","created_at":"2013-12-27T01:27:53.076-08:00","display_name":"Abid Mahmood","url":"https://independent.academia.edu/AbidMahmood2"},"attachments":[],"research_interests":[{"id":22506,"name":"Adolescent","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Adolescent"},{"id":469102,"name":"Feces","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Feces"},{"id":749584,"name":"Anthelmintics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Anthelmintics"},{"id":827427,"name":"Praziquantel","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Praziquantel"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="63177682"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/63177682/Frequency_of_HIV_infection_amongst_hospital_visitors_at_Tubmanburg_Town_in_Liberia"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Frequency of HIV infection amongst hospital visitors at Tubmanburg Town in Liberia" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/63177682/Frequency_of_HIV_infection_amongst_hospital_visitors_at_Tubmanburg_Town_in_Liberia">Frequency of HIV infection amongst hospital visitors at Tubmanburg Town in Liberia</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>Journal of the College of Physicians and Surgeons--Pakistan : JCPSP</span><span>, 2006</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">1.

Methods: A total of 144 enterococci (Enterococcus faecalis, n=130, Enterococcus faecium, n=14) isolated and confirmed by biochemical tests at the department of Microbiology, Armed Forces Institute of Pathology, Rawalpindi, for a period of three years were included in the study. The antimicrobial susceptibility tests of isolated organisms were performed by standard disc diffusion method as recommended by NCCLS. In addition to nitrofurantoin (NIT), doxycycline (DOX), co-trimoxazole (COT), ampicillin (AMP), imipenem (IPM) and vancomycin (VAN) were used for antimicrobial susceptibility testing. Results: One hundred and twenty seven (88%) isolates of Enterococci were susceptible to NIT while 72% (n = 103) to AMP, 13% to COT, 11% to DOX, 91% to IPM and 99% to VAN. Among the strains resistant to AMP, COT, DOX, IPM and VAN, 50-88% were susceptible to NIT. Conclusion: Nitrofurantoin is an effective antimicrobial in vitro and can be used for treatment of Enterococcus urinary tract infections (JPMA 54:466;2004).","publication_date":{"day":null,"month":null,"year":2004,"errors":{}},"publication_name":"JOURNAL-PAKISTAN MEDICAL …","grobid_abstract_attachment_id":75687283},"translated_abstract":null,"internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/63177680/In_vitro_activity_of_nitrofurantoin_in_enterococcus_urinary_tract_infection","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2021-12-04T02:19:20.282-08:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":7844421,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":75687283,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/75687283/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"487.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/75687283/download_file?st=MTczMjg0MjEzNyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"In_vitro_activity_of_nitrofurantoin_in_e.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/75687283/487-libre.pdf?1638614067=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DIn_vitro_activity_of_nitrofurantoin_in_e.pdf\u0026Expires=1732845737\u0026Signature=AEjAd5gEQqv-HzV-xenS-ouY35CthylHVNLEOFTlPhum4Fu4DGIIDn4yeejPszAxHKl6F0WWcne4MsKaxK4cPvdtqeGWp9B3fFEc3J-XcgMiQ-Qaf6QeH0pOU0XGUPCGCPCJ73K1MBEdiBPBLHi6KxBDSo-9CuZ49sCd1RWpXreGs8AyOhAxAiUK8Y4UjmGEPBDm~WR0FzNb11~LIrExIhCbZ8TaIpSwiK8anVUtSiq-xsmq9Lm066JfsBcGhaKT9HTsRMadJMANoOdkT4MG~QkRwVa0mPfBkxkmN304fztEpYdjaIxSg9YDQHRiBWDhsBv63HhKT6xzGRVkI0Q9xA__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"In_vitro_activity_of_nitrofurantoin_in_enterococcus_urinary_tract_infection","translated_slug":"","page_count":4,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":7844421,"first_name":"Abid","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Mahmood","page_name":"AbidMahmood2","domain_name":"independent","created_at":"2013-12-27T01:27:53.076-08:00","display_name":"Abid Mahmood","url":"https://independent.academia.edu/AbidMahmood2"},"attachments":[{"id":75687283,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/75687283/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"487.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/75687283/download_file?st=MTczMjg0MjEzNyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"In_vitro_activity_of_nitrofurantoin_in_e.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/75687283/487-libre.pdf?1638614067=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DIn_vitro_activity_of_nitrofurantoin_in_e.pdf\u0026Expires=1732845737\u0026Signature=AEjAd5gEQqv-HzV-xenS-ouY35CthylHVNLEOFTlPhum4Fu4DGIIDn4yeejPszAxHKl6F0WWcne4MsKaxK4cPvdtqeGWp9B3fFEc3J-XcgMiQ-Qaf6QeH0pOU0XGUPCGCPCJ73K1MBEdiBPBLHi6KxBDSo-9CuZ49sCd1RWpXreGs8AyOhAxAiUK8Y4UjmGEPBDm~WR0FzNb11~LIrExIhCbZ8TaIpSwiK8anVUtSiq-xsmq9Lm066JfsBcGhaKT9HTsRMadJMANoOdkT4MG~QkRwVa0mPfBkxkmN304fztEpYdjaIxSg9YDQHRiBWDhsBv63HhKT6xzGRVkI0Q9xA__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":159,"name":"Microbiology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Microbiology"},{"id":7361,"name":"Pakistan","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Pakistan"},{"id":74699,"name":"Antimicrobial susceptibility","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Antimicrobial_susceptibility"},{"id":152908,"name":"Urinary tract infection","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Urinary_tract_infection"},{"id":158884,"name":"Urinary Tract Infections","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Urinary_Tract_Infections"},{"id":244814,"name":"Clinical Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Clinical_Sciences"},{"id":335984,"name":"Anti-Bacterial Agents","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Anti-Bacterial_Agents"},{"id":363553,"name":"Urinary Tract","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Urinary_Tract"},{"id":537769,"name":"Enterococcus faecium","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Enterococcus_faecium"},{"id":561012,"name":"Enterococcus faecalis","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Enterococcus_faecalis"},{"id":561014,"name":"Microbial Sensitivity Tests","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Microbial_Sensitivity_Tests"},{"id":629563,"name":"Antimicrobial susceptibility testing","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Antimicrobial_susceptibility_testing"},{"id":901876,"name":"Sensitivity and Specificity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Sensitivity_and_Specificity"},{"id":1692075,"name":"Nitrofurantoin","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Nitrofurantoin"}],"urls":[{"id":14769099,"url":"http://direct.bl.uk/research/4D/14/RN157508269.html"}]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

A total of 144 enterococci (Enterococcus faecalis, n=130, Enterococcus faecium, n=14) isolated and confirmed by biochemical tests at the department of Microbiology, Armed Forces Institute of Pathology, Rawalpindi, for a period of three years were included in the study. The antimicrobial susceptibility tests of isolated organisms were performed by standard disc diffusion method as recommended by NCCLS.

She became symptom-free in four weeks and the number of ova passed in stool and urine decreased.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/63177683/Combined_Schistosoma_mansoni_and_Schistosoma_haematobium_infection","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2021-12-04T02:19:20.649-08:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":7844421,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[],"slug":"Combined_Schistosoma_mansoni_and_Schistosoma_haematobium_infection","translated_slug":"","page_count":null,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":7844421,"first_name":"Abid","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Mahmood","page_name":"AbidMahmood2","domain_name":"independent","created_at":"2013-12-27T01:27:53.076-08:00","display_name":"Abid Mahmood","url":"https://independent.academia.edu/AbidMahmood2"},"attachments":[],"research_interests":[{"id":22506,"name":"Adolescent","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Adolescent"},{"id":469102,"name":"Feces","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Feces"},{"id":749584,"name":"Anthelmintics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Anthelmintics"},{"id":827427,"name":"Praziquantel","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Praziquantel"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="63177682"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/63177682/Frequency_of_HIV_infection_amongst_hospital_visitors_at_Tubmanburg_Town_in_Liberia"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Frequency of HIV infection amongst hospital visitors at Tubmanburg Town in Liberia" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/63177682/Frequency_of_HIV_infection_amongst_hospital_visitors_at_Tubmanburg_Town_in_Liberia">Frequency of HIV infection amongst hospital visitors at Tubmanburg Town in Liberia</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>Journal of the College of Physicians and Surgeons--Pakistan : JCPSP</span><span>, 2006</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">1.

Methods: A total of 144 enterococci (Enterococcus faecalis, n=130, Enterococcus faecium, n=14) isolated and confirmed by biochemical tests at the department of Microbiology, Armed Forces Institute of Pathology, Rawalpindi, for a period of three years were included in the study. The antimicrobial susceptibility tests of isolated organisms were performed by standard disc diffusion method as recommended by NCCLS. In addition to nitrofurantoin (NIT), doxycycline (DOX), co-trimoxazole (COT), ampicillin (AMP), imipenem (IPM) and vancomycin (VAN) were used for antimicrobial susceptibility testing. Results: One hundred and twenty seven (88%) isolates of Enterococci were susceptible to NIT while 72% (n = 103) to AMP, 13% to COT, 11% to DOX, 91% to IPM and 99% to VAN. Among the strains resistant to AMP, COT, DOX, IPM and VAN, 50-88% were susceptible to NIT. Conclusion: Nitrofurantoin is an effective antimicrobial in vitro and can be used for treatment of Enterococcus urinary tract infections (JPMA 54:466;2004).","publication_date":{"day":null,"month":null,"year":2004,"errors":{}},"publication_name":"JOURNAL-PAKISTAN MEDICAL …","grobid_abstract_attachment_id":75687283},"translated_abstract":null,"internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/63177680/In_vitro_activity_of_nitrofurantoin_in_enterococcus_urinary_tract_infection","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2021-12-04T02:19:20.282-08:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":7844421,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":75687283,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/75687283/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"487.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/75687283/download_file?st=MTczMjg0MjEzNyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjg0MjEzNyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"In_vitro_activity_of_nitrofurantoin_in_e.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/75687283/487-libre.pdf?1638614067=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DIn_vitro_activity_of_nitrofurantoin_in_e.pdf\u0026Expires=1732845737\u0026Signature=AEjAd5gEQqv-HzV-xenS-ouY35CthylHVNLEOFTlPhum4Fu4DGIIDn4yeejPszAxHKl6F0WWcne4MsKaxK4cPvdtqeGWp9B3fFEc3J-XcgMiQ-Qaf6QeH0pOU0XGUPCGCPCJ73K1MBEdiBPBLHi6KxBDSo-9CuZ49sCd1RWpXreGs8AyOhAxAiUK8Y4UjmGEPBDm~WR0FzNb11~LIrExIhCbZ8TaIpSwiK8anVUtSiq-xsmq9Lm066JfsBcGhaKT9HTsRMadJMANoOdkT4MG~QkRwVa0mPfBkxkmN304fztEpYdjaIxSg9YDQHRiBWDhsBv63HhKT6xzGRVkI0Q9xA__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"In_vitro_activity_of_nitrofurantoin_in_enterococcus_urinary_tract_infection","translated_slug":"","page_count":4,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":7844421,"first_name":"Abid","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Mahmood","page_name":"AbidMahmood2","domain_name":"independent","created_at":"2013-12-27T01:27:53.076-08:00","display_name":"Abid Mahmood","url":"https://independent.academia.edu/AbidMahmood2"},"attachments":[{"id":75687283,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/75687283/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"487.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/75687283/download_file?st=MTczMjg0MjEzNyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjg0MjEzNyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"In_vitro_activity_of_nitrofurantoin_in_e.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/75687283/487-libre.pdf?1638614067=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DIn_vitro_activity_of_nitrofurantoin_in_e.pdf\u0026Expires=1732845737\u0026Signature=AEjAd5gEQqv-HzV-xenS-ouY35CthylHVNLEOFTlPhum4Fu4DGIIDn4yeejPszAxHKl6F0WWcne4MsKaxK4cPvdtqeGWp9B3fFEc3J-XcgMiQ-Qaf6QeH0pOU0XGUPCGCPCJ73K1MBEdiBPBLHi6KxBDSo-9CuZ49sCd1RWpXreGs8AyOhAxAiUK8Y4UjmGEPBDm~WR0FzNb11~LIrExIhCbZ8TaIpSwiK8anVUtSiq-xsmq9Lm066JfsBcGhaKT9HTsRMadJMANoOdkT4MG~QkRwVa0mPfBkxkmN304fztEpYdjaIxSg9YDQHRiBWDhsBv63HhKT6xzGRVkI0Q9xA__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":159,"name":"Microbiology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Microbiology"},{"id":7361,"name":"Pakistan","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Pakistan"},{"id":74699,"name":"Antimicrobial susceptibility","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Antimicrobial_susceptibility"},{"id":152908,"name":"Urinary tract infection","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Urinary_tract_infection"},{"id":158884,"name":"Urinary Tract Infections","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Urinary_Tract_Infections"},{"id":244814,"name":"Clinical Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Clinical_Sciences"},{"id":335984,"name":"Anti-Bacterial Agents","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Anti-Bacterial_Agents"},{"id":363553,"name":"Urinary Tract","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Urinary_Tract"},{"id":537769,"name":"Enterococcus faecium","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Enterococcus_faecium"},{"id":561012,"name":"Enterococcus faecalis","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Enterococcus_faecalis"},{"id":561014,"name":"Microbial Sensitivity Tests","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Microbial_Sensitivity_Tests"},{"id":629563,"name":"Antimicrobial susceptibility testing","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Antimicrobial_susceptibility_testing"},{"id":901876,"name":"Sensitivity and Specificity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Sensitivity_and_Specificity"},{"id":1692075,"name":"Nitrofurantoin","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Nitrofurantoin"}],"urls":[{"id":14769099,"url":"http://direct.bl.uk/research/4D/14/RN157508269.html"}]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });
