“…In our analysis, in both periods, the most common organisms were Escherichia coli (56.6% vs 51.6%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (14.7% vs 16.5%), Enterococcus faecalis (11.6% vs 12%), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (4.5% vs 5%). This spectrum is similar to the previous studies by Meena et al [ 12 ], and Shah et al [ 6 ] from India; Sorlozano et al [ 13 ] from Spain; Eure et al [ 14 ] and Sharma et al [ 15 ] from Grenada; and Lagunas-Rangel [ 16 ] from Mexico. Most authors have reported Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae among the top three causative organisms for UTI (Table 4 ), which is similar to our study.…”

“…in poultry, but to ensure its efficacy on susceptible bacteria, it must be used at specific concentrations under a specific schema [82,83]. A 10-year longitudinal study of uropathogenic E. coli strains (UPEC) in humans in Mexico, identified these strains as the leading cause of urinary infections [84]. Moreover, rates of multidrug-resistant UPEC have significantly increased over time, reaching more than 60% of isolated strains, complicating their treatment, and leading to severe complications such as cystitis, pyelonephritis and urosepsis [85].…”

Characterization of commercial poultry farms in Mexico: Towards a better understanding of biosecurity practices and antibiotic usage patterns

et al. 2020

Mexico is one of the world’s major poultry producing countries. Two significant challenges currently facing the poultry industry are the responsible and judicious use of antimicrobials, and the potential occurrence of infectious disease outbreaks. For example, repeated outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus subtype H7N3 have occurred in poultry since its first detection in Mexico in 2012. Both of these challenges can be addressed through good husbandry practices and the application of on-farm biosecurity measures. The aims of this study were: (i) to assess the biosecurity measures practiced across different types of poultry farms in Mexico, and (ii) to collect information regarding antimicrobial usage. A cross-sectional study was carried out through on-farm interviews on 43 poultry farms. A multiple correspondence analysis was performed to characterize the farms based on their pattern of biosecurity practices and antimicrobial usage. Three clusters of farms were identified using an agglomerative hierarchical cluster analysis. In each cluster, a specific farm type was predominant. The biosecurity measures that significantly differentiated the visited farms, thus allowing their clusterization, were: the use of personal protective equipment (e.g. face masks, hair caps, and eye protection), the requirement for a hygiene protocol before and after entering the farm, the use of exclusive working clothes by staff and visitors, footbath presence at the barn entrance, and the mortality disposal strategy. The more stringent the biosecurity measures on farms within a cluster, the fewer the farms that used antimicrobials. Farms with more biosecurity breaches used antimicrobials considered critically important for public health. These findings could be helpful to understand how to guide strategies to reinforce compliance with biosecurity practices identified as critical according to the farm type. We conclude by providing certain recommendations to improve on-farm biosecurity measures.

“…Resistance to these has increased significantly due to their incorrect use, limiting therapeutic options. 16 Being a public health problem, especially in developing countries like Mexico, where, in addition to the high level of poverty, ignorance and poor hygiene practices, it is one of the concerns of medical society because treatment is expensive and often fails. 17 For all of this, physicians must know the etiology and susceptibility patterns of urinary pathogens in their community, in order to adequately improve antimicrobial therapy 18 19 .…”

ObjectiveTo identify patterns of resistance against quinolones in various uropathogens in urinary tract infections in the population of the Toluca valley, MexicoIntroductionQuinolones are antibiotics with a spectrum of activity for both gram-positives and gram-negatives and are antibiotics used for the empirical treatment of urinary tract infections. Recently, a high index of resistance to quinolones has been reported due to different mechanisms on the part of bacteria, however the one that has taken the greatest importance is the presence of extended spectrum beta-lactamasesMethods155 samples were collected from patients with suspected urinary tract infection without exclusion criteria such as age or gender. Automated equipment was used for the identification of the etiological agent and sensitivity tests to quinolones.ResultsThe results positives were divided to evaluate which of the two antibiotics studied had greater resistance. For ciprofloxacin there are 27 resistant strains 37%, 1 strain with intermediate resistance 1% and 45 susceptible strains 62%. For levofloxacin 26 strains are resistant 36%, 41 strains are sensitive 56% and 6 strains show intermediate sensitivity 8%.ConclusionDifferent microorganisms, both gram-positive and gram-negative, were isolated and it can be observed that gram-negative strains are the ones with the greatest resistance against quinolones, mainly Escherichia coli, which produces extended-spectrum beta-lactamases, in the case of gram-positive resistance patterns are variable with a tendency towards sensitivity.
