Non‐typhoidal salmonellosis remains an important public health problem worldwide. Dogs may harbour Salmonella in their intestines and can easily shed Salmonella in the environment with the possibility of transmission to humans. Thus, monitoring is essential to understand the role of dogs in zoonotic transmission. The objectives of this study were to determine the shedding of Salmonella by owned, apparently healthy dogs in Grenada, West Indies, to identify the serovars, and to examine their antimicrobial susceptibility profiles. Faecal samples collected during August to October, 2016 from 144 non‐diarrhoeic owned dogs were examined by enrichment and selective culture for the presence of Salmonella spp. Eight (5.6%) of the tested animals were culture positive, yielding 35 Salmonella isolates that belonged to six serovars of Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica. These were serovars Arechavaleta from two dogs, Arechavaleta and Montevideo from one dog, and Javiana, Rubislaw, Braenderup and Kiambu from one dog each. All these serovars have been reported as causes of human salmonellosis globally. Antimicrobial susceptibility tests on 35 isolates showed absence of resistance to the currently used drugs for cases of human salmonellosis, including ciprofloxacin and cefotaxime. One isolate (2.9%) was resistant to neomycin, two isolates (5.7%) showed intermediate susceptibility to neomycin, and another (2.9%) had intermediate susceptibility to tetracycline. This is the first report of isolation and antimicrobial susceptibilities of non‐typhoidal Salmonella serovars from dogs in Grenada. This study shows that dogs in Grenada may be involved in the epidemiology of salmonellosis.

“…We hope we could improve it in the future. Thirdly, the subjects in this study were restricted to term infants, whereas, the preterm infants are more vulnerable to meningitis, and the outcomes of which are poorer than term infants, [ 4 , 18 , 35 ] so we will conduct a similar study among premature neonates in the future. Fourthly, a confounding factor was not adjusted, which was the glycemic status of patients at the onset of meningitis, and the fluctuation of blood sugar may lead to significant neurological impairment in neonates that biases our results, this should be aware of at the beginning of study, we will revise it in the future.…”

To compare clinical features and outcomes between early and late onset of neonatal bacterial meningitis (NBM). Patients were allocated in 2 groups: early onset neonatal bacterial meningitis (ENBM) and late onset neonatal bacterial meningitis (LNBM). Data analysis includes asphyxia at birth, premature rupture of membranes (PROM), amnionitis, amniotic fluid contamination, maternal age, clinical manifestations of the patients, laboratory findings, radiological results, complications related to meningitis, duration of hospitalization and therapeutic effect. There was no difference in gender, birth weight, gestational age, and incidence of asphyxia between 2 groups. The incidence of PROM, chorioamnionitis and amniotic fluid contamination, proportion of small-for-gestational-age infants, convulsions, intracranial hemorrhage, hyperbilirubinemia, and the protein level of cerebrospinal fluid in ENBM group were higher than that in LNBM group ( P < .05); the proportion of fever, elevated C-reaction protein and the abnormal of platelet counts in LNBM group was higher than that in ENBM group ( P < .05). There was no difference in the incidence of complications and hospitalization time between 2 groups. The rate of effective treatment in LNBM group was significantly higher than that in ENBM group ( P < .05). Patients with conditions of amniotic fluid contamination, chorioamnionitis, small-for-gestational-age and PROM might be more prone to develop ENBM and ENBM had worse outcomes than LNBM.

“…relative immune deficiency state, allowing transplacental transmission. 5 Additionally, no specific screening test or method exists to identify NTS in pregnant women, possibly due to the rarity of its incidence. Some strains of NTS can also colonize the mammary glands and be transmitted through breast milk, which is disconcerting considering that breastfeeding also confers a protective effect on infants with regard to salmonellosis infection.…”

A previously healthy 3-month-old girl was admitted to the hospital after 1 day of fever, decreased oral intake, irritability, lethargy, and decreased activity. Examination disclosed a bulging anterior fontanelle, tachycardia (heart rate of 160 beats/minute), and urate crystals in her diaper. Lumbar puncture revealed meningitis. She was treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics and fluids. A urine culture was negative, but blood and cerebrospinal fluid cultures came back positive for species, nontyphoid. During her hospitalization, she developed seizures but quickly improved with treatment and made a complete recovery with no sequela. Additional inquiry disclosed that the baby spent several days a week at her grandparents' house, where they raised chickens and ate fresh chicken eggs, which are well-known carriers for.
