Emerging antimicrobial resistance among strains in bloodstream infections in Toronto, 2006-2016: a retrospective cohort study.

Background: Enterobacteriaceae that produce extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) have emerged as a serious threat, with variable rates depending on geographic region. We determined the prevalence of ESBL-producing , , and in bloodstream infections in Toronto from 2006 through 2016.

Methods: All patients with , , and isolated from blood in a tertiary care microbiology laboratory in Toronto between 2006 and 2016 (1 isolate per species per patient per year) were included in this retrospective cohort study.

Incidence, timing, and predictive factors of new-onset migraine headache attack after transcatheter closure of atrial septal defect or patent foramen ovale.

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the incidence, predictive factors, and duration of migraine headache attack (MHA) after transcatheter atrial septal defect (ASD) or patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure. A total of 260 consecutive patients who underwent ASD or PFO closure in our center answered a structured headache questionnaire focused in 3 period times, including (1) at baseline (just before closure), (2) within the 3 months after ASD-PFO closure, and (3) at the last (median 27 months, range 6 to 80 months) follow-up. All questionnaires were evaluated by a neurologist who established the diagnosis of MHA with or without aura, according to International Headache Society criteria.
