Abstract Objective: Urinary tract infection is among the most prevalent infections in humans, and E. coli is the most frequent pathogen causing this disease. The production of Beta lactamase enzymes (ESBL) in this bacterium makes it resistant to many antibiotics. The aim of this study was to evaluate a novel method single daily dose of Amikacin at 48 h intervals in a clinical trial This was a double-blind clinical trial study.Material and Methods: The patients were divided into two groups of Intervention (Administration of single daily dose of Amikacin at 48 h intervals Intervals for 1 week 3 doses) and control (Prescription of Meropenem for 1 Week). Results: The mean age of the Intervention group was (46.64±3.89) and control group (46.03±2.38). The frequency of E. coli infection was 61(54%), and that of other infections was 52(46%).Conclusion: The results of our study show the therapeutic effect of single daily dose administration of Amikacin every 48 hours

Abstract:The problem of deciding the optimal sequence of diagnostic tests can be structured in decision trees, but unmanageable bushy decision trees result when the sequence of two or more tests is investigated. Most modelling techniques include tests on the basis of gain in certainty. The aim of this study was to explore a model for optimizing the sequence of diagnostic tests based on efficiency criteria. The probability modifying plot shows, when in a specific test sequence further testing is redundant and which costs are involved. In this way different sequences can be compared. The model is illustrated with data on urinary tract infection. The sequence of diagnostic tests was optimized on the basis of efficiency, which was either defined as the test sequence with the least number of tests or the least total cost for testing. Further research on the model is needed to handle current limitations.

Background: Antibiotic resistance emerged as clinical problem challenge the effective treatment of infections. Virulence factor may play an important role in the influence of antimicrobial resistance. Objective: To determine the frequency of resistance gene in E. coli clinical isolates from women with urinary tract infection. Materials and Methods: Fifteen E.coli clinical isolates were tested by PCR to determine their molecular characterization. Results: The bla CTX –M gene was not detected in 6.7% out of the tested 15 E. coli clinical isolates from women with urinary tract infection. However, bla OXA gene was detected in all E. coli tested clinical isolates from pregnant women, female student and diabetic women with urinary tract infection. While bla TEM gene and bla SHV gene were not detected in 33.3% and 40% out of the tested E. coli clinical isolates respectively. Conclusions: Four types of ESBL genes were detected, and shows new trend of distribution, which indicated the predominance of OXA and CTX-M genes.
