Background: Additional antimicrobial resistance to extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing exhausts treatment options. We investigated allele distribution and resistance to ciprofloxacin and gentamicin among ESBL-producing isolates from the urine, stool, animals, and environments of presumptive urinary tract infection (UTI) patients, in order to gain a crucial insight toward devising prevention and control measures and treatment guidelines.
Methods: Archived ESBL-producing isolates from the urine, stool, animals, and surrounding environments of presumptive UTI patients were retrieved.

Introduction: Among Gram-negative bacteria (GNB), (), such as () and (), are the most clinically relevant pathogens in healthcare settings. Infections secondary to these pathogens are widely common but multidrug resistance (MDR) in has become a significant challenge with increased morbidity, mortality, and cost of management. The escalating global prevalence of MDR in has led to limited treatment options, raising an urgent need for novel antimicrobial therapy(s) and detailed studies exploring underlying resistance mechanisms.

Background: The incidence of ESBL infections is exponentially increasing with variable prevalence among geographical areas and treatment settings. Identifying local prevalence rate and patient-related factors will help in earlier recognition and initiation of appropriate antibiotics treatment of patients with ESBL infections.
Methods: Retrospective analysis of all positive cultures for ESBL producing Enterobacteriaceae collected in Al-Khor hospital from January 2010 to December 2012.

Background Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are an emerging treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The effect and tolerability of SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with T2DM, especially related risk factors and susceptible populations, are an area of ongoing research. Aim The aim of this study was to evaluate the tolerability of SGLT2 inhibitors, particularly the risk associated with urogenital infection, in patients with T2DM.
