Abstract:
Purpose: Antibiotic associated diarrhea (AAD) and clostridium-difficile diarrhea (CDAD) are the most common forms of infectious diarrhea in long term care facilities. The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of probiotics in preventing AAD and CDAD in the long term care geriatric population, and to identify interventions which can be used to improve clinical practice. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study. The study population consisted of residents of a LTC facility who were sixty-five years of age and older who were administered antibiotic therapies with or without co-administration of probiotics. A data collection instrument which was created for this study was piloted prior to its use in the study. Chi-square test of independence and Cochran s Q were the proposed statistical analysis procedures used to determine relationships between variables. Results: Eighty-three residents received antibiotics. In the forty-four residents who were administered probiotic with antibiotic, five cases of diarrhea were reported. In the thirty-nine residents who received antibiotics without probiotics, two cases of diarrhea were reported. Analysis with chi-square test of independence comparing the relationship between antibiotic administration with and without probiotic and AAD prevention, was (X²(1) =1.041, p=0.308). No cases of CDAD were found in the group who received antibiotic (s) and a probiotic. One case of CDAD was found in the group which received no probiotic with the antibiotic. Analysis with chi-square test of independence comparing the relationship between antibiotic administration with or without probiotic and CDAD prevention was (X²(1) =1.142, p=0.285). Discussion/Implication: The results of this study showed no statistically significant evidence to support the effectiveness of probiotic use in the prevention of AAD or CDAD in this population. The incidence of AAD was higher in the group who received a probiotic at the time of antibiotic administration.

Abstract:
[Truncated abstract] The prinicipal aim of this thesis was to explore the relationship between 3rd generation cephalosporin antibiotics and hospital-acquired Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhoea (CDAD). This antibiotic class has been implicated in the aetiology of CDAD; therefore restriction of these antibiotics via antibiotic policies represents a potential strategy for prevention and control of CDAD. Successful control of CDAD in hospitals translates to improved quality of care for patients, and a reduction of pressure on hospital resources. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to determine whether 3rd generation cephalosporins were related to CDAD, to evaluate the effect of changes to antibiotic policy on the incidence of CDAD, and to determine the impact of CDAD on patient length of stay and hospital costs. The study was conducted in Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital (SCGH), a public teaching hospital located in Perth, the capital city of the state of Western Australia. Evidence for an association between 3rd generation cephalosporins and CDAD was obtained from studies of ecologic- and individual-level data. A time series analysis of the relationship between monthly consumption of 3rd generation cephalosporins and the incidence of CDAD in SCGH was undertaken covering the period 1994 to 2000. The results demonstrated a positive relationship between the use of 3rd generation cephalosporins and CDAD. A matched case-control study that involved 193 adult inpatients diagnosed with CDAD and 386 adult inpatients without CDAD, selected from the period 1996 to 2000, was conducted. Information was collected on exposure to 3rd generation cephalosporin antibiotics during hospitalisation, as well as exposure to other antibiotics and medications, procedures, and comorbidities. Results from conditional logistic regression analyses found CDAD cases were six times more likely to be exposed to 3rd generation cephalosporins during their admission, prior to the onset of diarrhoea, than controls (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 6.17, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.56-24.37). Approximately one third of CDAD in the study population could be attributed to 3rd generation cephalosporins. CDAD cases were also four times more likely to have been exposed to either amoxicillin-clavulanate or ticarcillin-clavulanate (adjusted OR=4.23, 95% CI=1.81-9.93). In October 1998, an antibiotic policy was introduced at SCGH that restricted the use of ceftriaxone, the 3rd generation cephalosporin most commonly used by the hospital. During 1999 and 2000, the incidence of CDAD halved as ceftriaxone consumption fell in response to this policy. The effect of this policy was demonstrated in the time series model; during the post-policy period the relationship between ceftriaxone and CDAD that was evident prior to the policy was cancelled out. From the individual-level data, obtained from the case-control study, a reduction in the prevalence of exposure to 3rd generation cephalosporins from 11% to 1% accounted for a 30% reduction in the incidence of CDAD. Data from the case-control study was also used to analyse the independent contribution of CDAD to length of stay and admission costs using multiple linear regression

Abstract:
Conventionally, in Escherichia coli, phylogenetic groups A and B1 are associated with commensal strains while B2 and D are associated with extraintestinal strains. The aim of this study was to evaluate diarrheagenic (DEC) and commensal E. coli phylogeny and its association with antibiotic resistance and clinical characteristics of the diarrheal episode. Phylogenetic groups and antibiotic resistance of 369 E. coli strains (commensal strains and DEC from children with or without diarrhea) isolated from Peruvian children <1 year of age were determined by a Clermont triplex PCR and Kirby-Bauer method, respectively. The distribution of the 369 E. coli strains among the 4 phylogenetic groups was A (40%), D (31%), B1 (21%), and B2 (8%). DEC-control strains were more associated with group A while DEC-diarrhea strains were more associated with group D (𝑃 < 0.05). There was a tendency (𝑃 = 0.06) for higher proportion of persistent diarrhea (≥14 days) among severe groups (B2 and D) in comparison with nonsevere groups (A and B1). Strains belonging to group D presented significantly higher percentages of multidrug resistance than the rest of the groups (𝑃 > 0.01). In summary, DEC-diarrhea strains were more associated with group D than strains from healthy controls.

Abstract:
Objetivos: A presente revisão sistemática visa avaliar a eficácia de probióticos na prevenção de diarreia associada aos antibióticos, na idade pediátrica. Métodos: Foi realizada uma revisão sistemática com análise qualitativa de ensaios clínicos randomizados. Os artigos foram pesquisados nas bases de dados PUBMED, Web of Science, CENTRAL, independentemente da linguagem, estado ou data da publicação. Estes foram sucessivamente selecionados de acordo com os critérios de elegibilidade definidos. Os critérios de Cochrane Risk of Bias foram aplicados para avaliar a qualidade dos estudos. Resultados: Foram incluídos cinco artigos, três destes sobre Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG e dois com foco em Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938. Os resultados obtidos sugeriram que um uso concomitante de antibióticos e Lactobacillus GG foi consistentemente eficaz na prevenção da diarreia associada aos antibióticos, sendo este dado estatisticamente significativo. Os ensaios clínicos que estudaram Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 não encontraram evidência da sua eficácia. Contudo, os autores consideram o tempo de follow-up foi um fator limitante das suas conclusões. Conclusões: Esta revisão sistemática encontrou evidência da eficácia de Lactobacillus GG como medida preventiva da diarreia associada aos antibióticos, na idade pediátrica, mas não relativamente a Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938. Assim, recomendamos que os dois probióticos continuem a ser estudados, nomeadamente com recurso a ensaios clínicos randomizados.
Objectives: The aim of this systematic review is to assess the effectiveness of probiotics in the prevention of AAD in the pediatric population. Methods: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was conducted for greater level of evidence. Articles were electronically searched in PUBMED, Web of Science, CENTRAL, irrespective of language, publication status, or date of publication. Records were successively selected according to the criteria for eligibility. The quality of each trial was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Criteria. Results: Five papers were included, between these, three on Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and two on Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938. Results suggest that the concomitant use of Lactobacillus GG was consistently effective in the prevention of AAD, this being statistically significant. Lactobacillus GG reduced the incidence of AAD to one third. RCTs on Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 found no evidence of its prophylactic use for pediatric AAD. However, the authors believe that an extended follow-up would lead to greater conclusions. Conclusions: This systematic review provides evidence to recommend Lactobacillus GG as a preventive measure of AAD in children but Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 was not found to be effective. We encourage further investigation on both probiotics, mainly via randomized controlled trials.

Abstract:
Questionnaires were sent to 1,218 hospitals with more than 200 beds, in order to know the incidence of hemorrhagic disease due to vitamin K deficiency in infancy beyond 2 weeks after birth, during 4 and a half years, i.e. from January 1981 to June 1985. Out of the 534 cases reported, 407 had no obvious reasons for vitamin K deficiency: "idiopathic vitamin K deficiency in infancy". Other 68 cases had bleedingepisodes due to vitamin K deficiency associated with hepatobiliary lesions (e.g.congenital bile duct atresia), chronic diarrhea, long term antibiotic therapy and so on: "secondary vitamin K deficiencyin infancy". The third group consisting of 59 cases was so called "near miss" type, in which hemorrhagic tendency was discovered at the time of mass screening tests for vitamin K deficiency or by chance withoutany clinical hemorrhage. In the idiopatic group, 345 cases (84.8%) developed their bleeding episodes between 21 and 59 days of age, and 368 cases (90.4%) were wholly breast-fed. Intracranial hemorrhage was seen in 338 cases (83.0%) of this group. In most cases of this series (97.3%),no vitamin K was supplemented after birth. Administration of vitamin K is an urgent routine procedure during the first one or two months of life for all newbornbabies, although the incidence of the idiopathic vitamin K deficiency in infancyhas not decreased significantly comparedto the results of the first nation-wide survey (Jan. 1978 - Dec. 1980). This study was sponsored by the Ministry of Health and Welfare of Japan.
