Salmonellosis
Salmonellosis is an infectious disease caused by Salmonella bacteria, which are rod-shaped, gram-negative bacteria. The disease is characterized by diarrhea, fever, abdominal cramps, and vomiting. Symptoms usually appear 12 to 72 hours after ingesting contaminated food or water and can last up to a week. Salmonella bacteria are commonly transmitted through contaminated foods like poultry, eggs, and produce. At risk groups include the young, elderly, and immunocompromised. While most cases resolve without treatment, antibiotics may be prescribed for severe or prolonged cases. Proper hygiene and sanitation are important for preventing transmission.

IBDs including irritable bowel syndrome (ibs) or ulcerative colitis (uc) are a set of diseases developing into an epidemic. The unusual and recent rise in these kind of diseases most notably on developed countries point to a recent and area specific etiology, not a better healthcare and diagnosis.
Recent researchs are pointing to a healthier immune system and intestinal flora in undeveloped countries' population and an imbalance in our gut flora caused by excessive use of antibiotics.

This document provides an overview of probiotics, including what they are, how they work, and their clinical applications. It begins by defining probiotics as living microorganisms that provide health benefits when consumed. Probiotics are usually bacteria from the Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium groups. The document then discusses how probiotics interact with and support the microbiome and intestinal epithelium. Several clinical uses of probiotics are reviewed, including their use in irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, infectious diarrhea, antibiotic-related diarrhea, and pouchitis. The document concludes by discussing the safety of probiotic supplements and areas where further research is still needed.
Fecal Transplants for treatment of Clostridium Difficile, Ulcerative Colitis ...
A summary of information about Fecal Transplants which are used to treat and effectively cure infections of anti-biotic resistant Clostridium Difficile infections of the large intestine. In addition to helping treat c. diff there have been case studies reporting success for treating Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn's Disease as well. Unfortunately access to this treatment through doctors in the United States is currently limited by FDA restrictions which require doctors to first apply for an Investigational New Drug (IND) permit.

Regional Antibiotic Resistance Of Helicobacter Pylori
This document discusses Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), a bacterial pathogen that can cause peptic ulcers and is responsible for most stomach cancers. It begins by providing background on the history of understanding H. pylori's role in ulcers. It was originally thought that stress and diet caused ulcers, but in 1982 Robin Warren and Barry Marshall discovered the connection between H. pylori and ulcers. The document then discusses how H. pylori can cause ulcers if left untreated in the stomach or duodenum. It also notes that H. pylori infection is very common, affecting over half of the world's population.

This case study involves a woman named Autumn who experienced increased urinary frequency and blood in her urine. She was initially diagnosed with a urinary tract infection and prescribed antibiotics, but her symptoms did not improve. Further testing revealed she had invasive transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the bladder, which is linked to mutations in tumor suppressor genes p53 and pRb. TCC is an aggressive form of bladder cancer associated with a poor prognosis. Autumn will require chemotherapy and radiation treatment. The case study examines Autumn's condition in the context of concepts from chapters about cancer biology, including mutations, tumor suppressor genes, metastasis, and dysplasia.
Your microbiome may be key factor determining your health and longevity
1. Your gut microbiome plays a key role in your health and longevity. A healthy microbiome can help prevent diseases like inflammatory bowel disease and diabetes, while an unhealthy one allows disease to take hold.
2. Certain bacteria in the gut, like Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, appear to have anti-inflammatory properties that can protect against conditions like Crohn's disease. Maintaining a diverse population of beneficial microbes is important for immune function.
3. Widespread antibiotic overuse has fueled deadly infections like Clostridium difficile, which causes life-threatening diarrhea. C. difficile infections are especially prevalent in hospitals and nursing homes.
OCCURANCE OF E.coli AND Klebbsiella in diabetes
This document summarizes a student's dissertation project on the occurrence of E. coli and Klebsiella species in urine cultures of diabetic and non-diabetic male and female patients over 60 years old. The student conducted urine cultures from over 100 patients to determine the most common bacteria present and their antibiotic sensitivities. Key findings included E. coli being the most frequently identified bacteria, with the highest occurrence in patients aged 60-70. Klebsiella species demonstrated resistance to certain antibiotics. The study provides insight into common causes of urinary tract infections in older patients and antibiotic treatment options.
Fecal Microbiota Transplantation
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) involves transferring stool from a healthy donor into a patient to treat recurrent Clostridium difficile (C. diff) infection. FMT has been used in China since the 4th century and the FDA approved its use for C. diff in 2013. C. diff affects over 250,000 people annually in the US and causes diarrhea, dehydration, and even death. The FMT procedure introduces donor stool into the patient's GI tract via enema or capsules to reestablish healthy gut bacteria and clear the C. diff infection, with over 90% success rates reported. Candidates usually have multiple relapses of C. diff despite antibiotic treatment.
新生兒壞死性腸炎
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a devastating disease that primarily affects premature infants. It was first described in the 1960s but the incidence and associated mortality have not changed significantly despite advances in neonatal care. NEC can cause pneumatosis intestinalis, portal venous gas, intestinal perforation, and systemic complications. It remains difficult to prevent and treat. Differential diagnoses include conditions seen in term infants associated with drug use or anomalies, and spontaneous intestinal perforations seen in very preterm infants without feeding. NEC costs over $500 million annually in the US due to increased hospitalization time and risk of short bowel syndrome requiring long-term care.

This document discusses diarrhea and vomiting in pediatric patients. It begins by defining diarrhea and vomiting and listing learning objectives. It then covers etiology, risk factors, clinical manifestations, complications, medical management including rehydration therapy, nursing management, and preventative measures for diarrhea. For vomiting, it defines vomiting, discusses physiology and causes. It also covers differential diagnosis and clinical manifestations of vomiting and red flag symptoms. Diagnostic evaluation for acute vomiting is also mentioned.
Necrotizing Enterocolitis: Why Such Enigma?
This document discusses necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) in preterm infants. It notes that NEC is an enigma due to inconsistent definitions and the lumping together of different diseases under the term NEC. There is no clear consensus on what constitutes "classic NEC". The document explores potential causes of NEC like dysbiosis of the gut microbiome from overuse of antibiotics and lack of enteral feeding in preterm infants. It summarizes evidence that common neonatal practices may disrupt the developing microbiome and increase the risk of NEC. While some studies found probiotics reduced NEC rates, the largest and most recent trial found no effect, demonstrating more research is still needed to understand and prevent N

This document discusses small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). It provides background on SIBO, including definitions, prevalence, clinical presentation, and diagnostic testing methods. The main diagnostic tests discussed are breath testing, antibiotic treatment trials, and small bowel aspiration/culture. Treatment options outlined include antibiotic therapy, prokinetic agents, probiotics, and nutritional support. Management of SIBO aims to address underlying causes, eradicate bacterial overgrowth, and provide nutritional support.
Diarrhea in children
Diarrhea is defined as an increase in stool frequency or liquidity. For infants it is considered diarrhea if there are more than 3 watery stools per day, while for older children it is 3 or more loose stools per day. The causes of diarrhea include viral, bacterial, and parasitic infections. Rotavirus is the most common cause of acute diarrhea in children. Treatment involves oral rehydration with solutions like ORS as well as continued feeding. For some cases antibiotics or zinc may be used. Prevention strategies include vaccines, handwashing, safe water, and breastfeeding.

Dysbiosis & Probiotics Gyn Final (1) [Autosaved].pptx
1. The gut microbiota is a complex ecosystem composed of trillions of bacteria that play an important role in human health and disease. Antibiotics can disrupt the balance of gut bacteria and cause dysbiosis.
2. Probiotics have shown promise in treating antibiotic-associated diarrhea by replenishing healthy gut bacteria. They work by competing with pathogens for space and nutrients, stimulating the immune system, and producing acids that lower gut pH.
3. Not all probiotic strains are alike - their effects are highly strain-specific. Studies showing benefits of one strain cannot be generalized to other untested strains without further research.
Some new facts on irritable bowel syndrome.
1. The document discusses irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), noting that it is a common disorder affecting the large intestine that causes abdominal pain, bloating, gas, diarrhea and constipation.
2. The author provides a new explanation for IBS, arguing that it is caused by periodic portal infection through an ulcer in the cecum or ascending colon, which allows bacteria to proliferate and circulate toxins.
3. Through detailed examination of patients, the author determined that restricting diet can help curb or terminate portal infection and its associated IBS symptoms.
