TL;DR: The use of rifampin may have contributed to homogenizing MSSA and MRSA prognoses, although the specific rifampsin combinations may have had different efficacies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reassessment of Clostridium difficile Susceptibility to Metronidazole and Vancomycin
Teresa Peláez,Luis Alcalá,Rodolfo Hernández Alonso,Marta Rodríguez-Créixems,Juan M. García-Lechuz,Emilio Bouza +5 more
TL;DR: Rates of resistance to metronidazole and vancomycin were higher among isolates from human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients, and molecular typing methods proved the absence of clonality among the isolates with decreased susceptibilities to the antimicrobials tested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of Universal 16S rRNA Gene PCR and Sequencing in Diagnosis of Prosthetic Joint Infection
Mercedes Marín,Juan M. García-Lechuz,Pilar Alonso,M. Villanueva,Luis Alcalá,M. Gimeno,E. Cercenado,Mar Sánchez-Somolinos,C. Radice,Emilio Bouza +9 more
TL;DR: 16SPCR is more specific and has a better positive predictive value than culture for diagnosis of PJI, even when few samples are analyzed; however, culture is generally more sensitive.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early prosthetic joint infection: outcomes with debridement and implant retention followed by antibiotic therapy.
Javier Cobo,L. Garcia San Miguel,G. Euba,Dolors Rodríguez,Juan M. García-Lechuz,Melchor Riera,Luis Falgueras,Julián Palomino,N. Benito,M.D. del Toro,Carlos Pigrau,Javier Ariza +11 more
TL;DR: A substantial proportion of patients with an early PJI may be successfully treated with DAIR and definite antimicrobial therapy and in more than half of these, the infection can be cured.
Journal ArticleDOI
