New Insight into Brucella Infection and Foodborne Diseases

Brucellosis is an important zoonotic disease. More than half a million new cases from 100 countries are reported annually to the World Health Organization (WHO). The majority of patients are living in developing countries. Brucellosis is a systemic infection with a broad clinical spectrum, ranging from an asymptomatic disease to a severe and fatal illness. Clinical and laboratory features vary widely. The main presentations are acute febrile illness, localized infection, and chronic infection. Laboratory tools for diagnosis of brucellosis include culture, serology, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The goal of brucellosis therapy is to control the illness and prevent complications, relaps...

Salmonella

This book deals with the microorganism Salmonella. This bacterium is well known for a long time, being involved in systemic (typhus and paratyphus infections) and nonsystemic diseases such as food poisoning. Major and minor Salmonellae are widespread worldwide in developing countries and industrialized areas, respectively. In 2015, about 3576 Salmonella strains have been isolated from human infections in Italy. S. typhimurium and S. enteritidis are the most prevalent serotypes and represent 80% of cases of infections over the last 10 years. The antibiotic susceptibility decrease over the last decades is a big issue in the management of this bacterium, once considered easy to treat. The use of antibiotic combinations in order to overcome the microorganism resistance should be hoped.

New Therapeutic Strategies Against Carbapenem-Resistant Gram-negative Bacteria

The emergence of multi-drug resistance in bacterial pathogens poses a threat to human health. Carbapenem-resistant microorganisms, especially Acinetobacter baumannii, has emerged as a serious challenge, causing nosocomial infections and community-acquired outbreaks all over the world. This situation is becoming more and more dangerous leading to serious consequences globally. Intestinal Gram-negative bacilli resistant to cephalosporins are potentially pathogenic for intensive care unit (ICU) patients, leading to an increased use of carbapenems and consequently inducing their progressive inactivity. The emergence of carbapenem resistance is a major concern for ICUs. PCR and sequencing methodologies are used to search for beta-lactamase genes. The spread of blaNDM, blaVIM, blaOXA48 and blaKPC genes is common worldwide. The infections due to carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales especially Klebsiella pneumoniae has become a major public health concern considering this complicated problem from different points of view.

Endoscopy of GI Tract

Endoscopy has had a major impact in the development of modern gastroenterology and other medical specialties. The field of endoscopic procedure has developed over the last decade. By using different data it provided a better understanding of pathogenic mechanisms, described new entities and used for early detection, diagnostic procedures and therapeutic procedures. The advantages of many technical advances and modern-endoscopic equipments, endoscopy has had a developed spectacularly. Furthermore, endoscopy has surpassed its function as an examination tool and it became a rapid and efficient therapeutic tool of low invasiveness. The efficacy and usefulness of endoscopy has yet been established.

Emerging infectious diseases may be defined as diseases being caused by pathogens only recently recognized to exist. This group of diseases is important globally, and the experience of the last 30 years suggests that new emerging diseases are likely to bedevil us. As the global climate changes, so changes the environment, which can support not only the pathogens, but also their vectors of transmission. This expands the exposure and effects of infectious disease and, therefore, the importance of widespread understanding of the relationship between public health and infectious disease. Public Health and Infectious Diseases brings together chapters that explain reasons for the emergence of thes...
