Introduction: Discomfort in women of childbearing age associated with vaginal infections, namely bacterial vaginosis (BV), aerobic vaginitis (AV), vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC), and trichomoniasis (TV), represent a serious and ongoing gynecological complication throughout the world.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the etiologies of vaginal infections among outpatients in south-eastern Gabon.
Methodology: A cross-sectional study was designed using participants referred directly by their treating doctor for a vaginal swab.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the prevalence of antibiotic resistance in Enterobacteriaceae from wild mammals in Gabon's national parks, focusing on both intrinsic and acquired resistance.
- Researchers identified 90 enterobacterial isolates from 130 colonies, with Escherichia coli being the most common species (61%), followed by other species like Enterobacter cloacae and Proteus mirabilis.
- Findings indicated that most resistant strains were wild type with intrinsic resistance, whereas acquired resistance was limited, particularly in E. coli (11%) and E. cloacae (3%).
The purpose of this study was to provide contextual information on indigenous food's technologies and safety from Gabon. The strategic focus being to promote local food with enhanced nutritional value and improved safety. An investigation and monitoring were carried out to elucidate their process flow diagrams and to identify safety failures.
