Concerning Polish patients, there is no epidemiological data at all. We sought to describe the epidemiology and various types of treatment for SA ocular infections with a special emphasis on cataract postoperative complications or the consequences of soft contact lenses wearing.

Epidemiology of Brucellosis
The epidemiology of brucellosis has dramatically changed over the past few years due to improvement in hygiene, socio-economic conditions and an increase in international travel. Incidence of human brucellosis has been reported for the first time from the regions of central Asia and in some countries. Particularly in Middle East countries, there is a drastic increase in the incidences

To understand the molecular epidemiology and antibiotic resistance of air and clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii, the intensive care unit settings of a hospital in Northern China were surveyed in 2014. Twenty non-duplicate A. baumannii isolates were obtained from patients and five isolates of airborne A. baumannii were obtained from the wards’ corridors. Pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) were used to analyze the homology relationships of

Secondly, only 12 sequencing results could be used to make the evolutionary trees to establish the relationship of the CV-A6, or CV-A16 in Turkey in relation to others in the world. Therefore further studies including samples from various regions of Turkey with a larger sampling might shed a better light on the dissemination as well as the phylogenetic relationships of these viral agents. Nevertheless, the data presented in the

Staphylococcal bloodstream infections are currently a challenging issue for clinicians, diagnosticians, and microbiologists, primarily due to their high frequency worldwide. Studies on bloodstream infection episodes differ slightly from each other because of the high number of patients and the number

The role of AfaD in the invasiveness of Afa/Dr strains has been confirmed by studies using a polycarbonate carrier coated with an AfaD antigen, which was internalized by epithelial cells. AfaD was recognized as a prototype of the invasin family, which also includes the AggB protein synthesized by EAEC strains [24].

Gammaherpesviruses can also be the cause of post-transplantation issues in patients on immunosuppressive drugs and EBV is known to induce severe clinical syndromes in people with specific genetic disorders. Presented article summarizes epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical syndromes and treatment of EBV and HHV-8 in individuals with

Since data on the epidemiology and susceptibility to antifungals of C. nivariensis are limited, our study may enrich the global knowledge about its epidemiology and drug resistance. Moreover, it indicates the need for proper microbiological analysis with the use of molecular methods or with the updated spectra of the matrix-assisted

Classification, structure and replication
The Parechovirus genus belongs to the Picornaviridae family and includes four virus species (Parechovirus A-D), which are mammalian pathogens. The human parechoviruses belong exclusively to the A species (Parechovirus A), which currently consists of 19 types, from HPeV-1 to HPeV-19 [99].
They are small (30 nm), non-enveloped, icosahedral-shaped viruses, whose genetic

Anisakidosis, a human infection with nematodes of the family Anisakidae, is caused most commonly by Anisakis spp. In the present study, seventy specimens of the European seabass Dicentrarchus labrax commercialized in Alexandria city along the Mediterranean Sea were acquired during the period from July to December, 2015. Fish were necropsied and

This retrospective study was carried out in the University General Hospital of Patras, Greece, during 2011–13 y. Blood cultures from patients with clinical presentation suggestive of bloodstream infection were performed by the BacT/ALERT System. Isolates were identified by Vitek 2 Advanced Expert System

Introduction – epidemiology of hCMV infections and prophylaxis schemes
The human cytomegalovirus (hCMV) classified as human herpesvirus 5 (Human herpesvirus 5; HHV-5) belongs to the Herpesviridae family and is common in the human population. Based on the seroepidemio-logical tests, it was found that the infection can be observed in 60–100% of people, depending on the studied population. The rate of seroconversion depends on the geographical region and is particularly high in the developing
