Human antibody response to longus type IV pilus and study of its prevalence among enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli in Bangladesh by using monoclonal antibodies
Mouse monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were derived against longus (CS20), a type IV pilus expressed by human enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC). One MAb (ICA39) detected longus in 56 (8.5%) of 662 ETEC isolates obtained from ... -
Enterotoxin-specific immunoglobulin E responses in humans after infection or vaccination with diarrhea-causing enteropathogens
Cholera toxin (CT)-specific antibody responses of the immunoglobulin E (IgE) isotype in the sera of adult patients suffering from infection with either Vibrio cholerae O1, V. cholerae O139, or enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) ... -
Disease-dependent changes in T-cell populations in patients with shigellosis
In shigellosis, bacterial infection is associated with an extensive inflammation of the rectal mucosa, resulting in bloody dysentery. The role of T-cell-mediated pro-inflammatory mechanisms has been implicated in this process, but the sp... -
Bangladeshi rural mothers prepare safer rice oral rehydration solution
Mothers in rural Bangladesh were trained to prepare and use either Rice-ORS (R-ORS) or Glucose-ORS (G-ORS) solutions to treat children with diarrhoea. Families were provided with either G-ORS or R-ORS of the same electrolyte co... -
Deaths attributable to childbearing in Matlab, Bangladesh: indirect causes of maternal mortality questioned
Little is known about the nature of diseases aggravated by pregnancy or the magnitude of mortality from causes indirectly related to pregnancy. This study aims at clarifying the contribution of indirect causes to maternal morta... -
Prevalence of toxin types and colonization factors in enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli isolated during a 2-year period from diarrheal patients in Bangladesh
The prevalence of toxin types and colonization factors (CFs) of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) was prospectively studied with fresh samples (n = 4,662) obtained from a 2% routine surveillance of diarrheal stool samples over... -
Innate immune responses in children and adults with Shigellosis
An array of pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators of the innate immune system was analyzed in stool, urine, and rectal mucosa samples from adults and children with shigellosis to better understand their role in recovery from... -
An economic appraisal of alternative strategies for the delivery of MCH-FP services in urban Dhaka, Bangladesh
The strategy of distributing maternal and child health and family planning (MCH-FP) services at the doorsteps of the clients--through routine visits to the eligible couples by trained fieldworkers--has been instrumental in increasing the... -
Prenatal screening in rural Bangladesh: from prediction to care
The role of antenatal care is being increasingly questioned, particularly in resource poor environments. The low predictability of antenatal markers for adverse maternal outcomes has led some to reject antenatal care as an efficient... -
Etiology of sexually transmitted infections among street-based female sex workers in Dhaka, Bangladesh
An etiological study of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) was conducted among female sex workers (FSWs) in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Endocervical swab and blood samples from 269 street-based FSWs were examined for Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Ch... -
Association of diarrhoea and upper respiratory infections with weight and height gains in Bangladeshi children aged 5 to 11 years
Abstract INTRODUCTION: The association between infection and growth delay is not well documented in school-age children in developing countries. We conducted a prospective cohort study to examine the association between inf... -
Safety and immunogenicity of an oral, inactivated enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli plus cholera toxin B subunit vaccine in Bangladeshi adults and children
We have compared the B cell responses evoked in Bangladeshi, adults (n=11, median age 25 years) and children (n=21, median age 4.5 years), 7 days after intake of each of two doses of an oral, inactivated enterotoxigen... -
Intestinal immune responses in patients infected with enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli and in vaccinees
Immune responses against enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) were examined in Bangladeshi adults with naturally acquired disease and compared to responses in age-matched Bangladeshi volunteers who had been orally immunized with a vaccine&... -
PCR detection, characterization, and distribution of virulence genes in Aeromonas spp
We found 73.1 to 96.9% similarity by aligning the cytolytic enterotoxin gene of Aeromonas hydrophila SSU (AHCYTOEN; GenBank accession no. M84709) against aerolysin genes of Aeromonas spp., suggesting the possibility of selecting common&#...
