Extended Spectrum Beta- Lactamase- Producing Uropathogenic Escherichia coli in Pregnant Women Diagnosed With Urinary Tract Infections in South-Western Nigeria
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) in symptomatic pregnant women with confirmed urinary tract infections in Southwest. Nigeria was reported. Susceptibility of UPEC isolates to Beta-lactam and other classes of antibiotics was determined by the Kirby-Bauer’s disc diffusion method on Mueller-Hinton agar plate. Detection of plasmid DNA in multiple antibiotic resistant isolates was carried out by alkali lysis (TENS) method. Extended-spectrum-Beta-lactamase (ESBL) production was determined by double disk synergy test (DDST). Isolates that were positive to ESBL were mated with non-ESBL- producing E. coli and other enterics in a conjugation experiment. Transfer of ESBL-enzyme and other resistance phenotypes in the transconjugants was investigated by DDST. Data obtained were statistically analyzed using SPSS 17. Greater percentage of the isolates were multiple antibiotic resistant (MAR). Sixty-nine (26.1 %) of UPEC were ESBL producers. Some of the ESBL producers transferred ESBL- enzyme and other resistance determinants to the recipients. Large size plasmid DNA of molecular weight (23.13-33.04 kb) was detected in some representative MAR isolates.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
