Abstract

A cross-sectional study was conducted aimed at determining the frequency and the risk factors for bacteremia caused by extended-spectrum Beta-Lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae in patients hospitalized in a public hospital in Lima. The study included patients over 14 years of age, with positive blood cultures during their hospitalization in Hospital Nacional Cayetano Heredia in 2016. Patients were classified according to the isolated bacterium (ESBL-producing or not). Bacteremia was caused by ESBL-producing Enterobacteriacea in 50.6% of the cases; 55.8% and 32.6% by E. Coli and K. pneumoniae, respectively. No differences were found regarding co-morbidity, or prior antibiotic use (62.8% of bacteremia due to ESBLproducing strains and 57% in the non-producing strains [p=0.595]). Half of the bacteremia cases due to Enterobacteriaceae in hospitalized patients are produced by ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae and, of these, 40% are acquired in the community.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 22 June 2018.
All research outputs
#20,663,600
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Revista Peruana de Medicina Experimental y Salud Pública
#277
of 458 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#268,117
of 343,422 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Revista Peruana de Medicina Experimental y Salud Pública
#14
of 19 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 458 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.4. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 343,422 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 19 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
