Community-Acquired Urinary Tract Infection by Escherichia coli in the Era of Antibiotic Resistance.
TLDR
This review is to ensure that clinicians understand the current seriousness of antibiotic-resistant E. coli, the mechanisms by which resistance is selected for, and methods that can be used to prevent antibiotic resistance.Abstract:
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by Escherichia coli (E. coli) are the most common types of infections in women. The antibiotic resistance of E. coli is increasing rapidly, causing physicians to hesitate when selecting oral antibiotics. In this review, our objective is to ensure that clinicians understand the current seriousness of antibiotic-resistant E. coli, the mechanisms by which resistance is selected for, and methods that can be used to prevent antibiotic resistance.read more

Antimicrobial resistance in community-acquired urinary tract infections in Paris in 2015.
TL;DR: The prevalence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE) bacteriuria seems to be 4%, and older age, immunosuppression, recurrent UTI, recent hospitalization, and antibiotic therapy are the main risk factors associated with ESBL- PE community-acquired UTI.
