    Trimethoprim sulfamethazine (26.8%), penicillin (0%), cefepime (27.8%), cefotaxime (23.7%), aztreonam (2.1%), meropenem (86.6%), ciprofloxacin (51.5%), amoxicillin/clavulanic acid (37.1%), nitrofurantoin (70.1%), gentamycin (73%), ceftazidime (19.5%), levofloxacin (51.5%) and ceftriaxone (25.77%) were subjected to antibiotic susceptibility testing. It is concerning that among the 13 antibiotics examined, solely nitrofurantoin displayed oral efficacy as an effective treatment choice for UTIs.

    The overall results of the antibiogram test showed that the identified bacteria were resistant to cephalothin, ampicillin, cefotaxime, and kanamycin antibiotics, semi-sensitive to ciprofloxacin and sensitive to tetracycline, gentamicin, nitrofurantoin, Trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, and Chloramphenicol. Infection of cockroaches with pathogenic bacterial agents in hospital, residential, and restaurant environments, as well as the observation of bacterial resistance to some common antibiotics is worrying.

    Review, Journal:  Nitrofurantoin: properties and potential in treatment of urinary tract infection: a narrative review. (Pubmed Central) -  Aug 18, 2023   
    To, although fluoroquinolones are usually used to re-evaluate the first- and second-line therapies for treating uncomplicated UTI, their level of utilization is thought to be inappropriately excessive and will eventually have a detrimental impact; thus, we hypothesize that NF might be the best choice for this condition, because of its low frequency of utilization and its high susceptibility in common UTI pathogens. It can be concluded from this review that NF can be considered as the most effective drug in the treatment of acute urinary infection, but due to the long-term side effects of this drug, especially in elderly patients, it is essential to introduce some criteria for prescribing NF in cases of chronic UTI.

    Furthermore, HNU-82 has strong fluorescence emission and good water stability and can be used to detect nitrofurazone (NZF) and nitrofurantoin (NFT). The concentrations of the aqueous solutions of NZF and NFT had a well correlated linear relationship with the fluorescence quenching effect of HNU-82, and the detection limits were 6.60

    Journal:  Nasal Carriage of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Sciuri Group by Residents of an Urban Informal Settlement in Kenya. (Pubmed Central) -  Aug 2, 2023   
    Resistance was observed to clindamycin (63%), tetracycline (56%), erythromycin (56%), sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim (25%), daptomycin (19%), rifampicin (13%), doxycycline, linezolid, and vancomycin (each 6%)...Our study scope precluded identifying other molecular determinants for all the observed resistance phenotypes. Larger studies that address the prevalence and risk factors for colonization with S. sciuri group and adopt a one health approach can complement the surveillance efforts.

    Reliance on Clinical Judgment to Target Immunohistochemical Stain Use for Diagnosis of HSV Esophagitis (Exhibit Hall) -  Jul 29, 2023 - Abstract #ACG2023ACG_3812;    
    As part of her IVF, the patient had completed a 10-day course of dexamethasone 2mg daily six weeks prior to presentation...The patient was started on a proton pump inhibitor and sucralfate...The patient was started on a 10-day course of valacyclovir with eventual resolution of symptoms following treatment...Compared with routine hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining, IHC is more sensitive and can identify more infected cells. IHC stains should primarily be employed in cases where histopathologic findings are ambiguous and clinical suspicion remains high.

    Eltrombopag-Induced Autoimmune Hepatitis (Exhibit Hall) -  Jul 29, 2023 - Abstract #ACG2023ACG_3054;    
    The most common medications associated with a definite cause of drug-induced autoimmune hepatitis (DIAH) are: Minocycline, Nitrofurantoin, and Infliximab...She required a prednisone taper...A review of the literature, including a review of major guidelines, does not reveal any cases of DIAH caused by eltrombopag. This case highlights a potentially major sequela of eltrombopag that should be considered in the event of elevated transaminases seen in a patient taking eltrombopag.

    Etiologies may be genetic predisposition linked to major histocompatibility complex loci, viral causes, or drugs (i.e. nitrofurantoin and minocycline)...She continues to follow in the hepatology clinic and is on azathioprine daily for AIH...Though less utilized in fibrosis assessment, her liver biopsy confirmed an alternative diagnosis that may have otherwise been missed, and she was started on appropriate treatment.

    We report the first documented case of nitrofurantoin induced VBDS. The patient's history of alcohol use, prolonged COVID infection and prior liver injuries may have contributed to the development of this reaction; however, further research is required to properly evaluate.

    Journal:  The Appropriateness of Empirical Antimicrobial Treatment of Uncomplicated Urinary Tract Infection in Adult Female Patients in Jazan Region, Saudi Arabia. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 25, 2023   
    This study concluded that nitrofurantoin and Ciprofloxacin are suitable empirical treatments for uncomplicated urinary tract infection in the Jazan region, and increased resistance against trimethoprim/sulphamethoxazole (TMPSMX) and cefaclor was observed; thus, empirical therapy with these agents should be reconsidered in local guidelines. Wide surveillance research is necessary to monitor effective empirical therapies and to evaluate the regional antimicrobial susceptibility pattern.

    coli remains the commonest uropathogen. In conclusion, Nitrofurantoin can be used to treat UTI caused by common bacterial pathogens except Klebsiella spp.
