Comparative genomic analysis of uropathogenic strains from women with recurrent urinary tract infection.

Introduction: Recurrent urinary tract infections (RUTIs) caused by uropathogenic are costly public health problems impacting patients' quality of life.

Aim: In this work, a comparative genomics analysis of three clinical RUTI strains isolated from bladder biopsy specimens was performed.

Materials And Methods: One hundred seventy-two whole genomes of urinary tract strains were selected from the NCBI database.

Features of urinary Escherichia coli isolated from children with complicated and uncomplicated urinary tract infections in Mexico.

The Hospital Infantil de México Federico Gómez (HIMFG) is a tertiary care hospital in Mexico City where Escherichia coli is frequently isolated from the urine samples of pediatric patients with urinary tract infections. A collection of 178 urinary Escherichia coli (UEc) isolates associated with complicated and uncomplicated urinary tract infections were evaluated in this study. The patterns of resistance to 9 antibiotic classes showed that 60.
