- European Urology Open Science 57 (2023) 74-83 Article: A clinical trial examined the use of microbial DNA sequencing to guide antibiotic prophylaxis in patients undergoing kidney stone surgery who had no bacteria detected in standard urine cultures. The study found that this approach significantly reduced the risk of postoperative urinary infections compared to the standard of care, with a 7.1% reduction in infection risk in one analysis and an 8.5% reduction in another.

- International Urogynecology Journal 2021 May 18 Article: Recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTIs) occur in 2-10% of postmenopausal women. Local estrogen therapy (LET) has been shown to reduce UTIs. This study aimed to compare the urinary microbiome between patients with and without a history of rUTIs and to examine whether treatment with LET influences the diversity and richness of microbiome species in two groups.

- International Journal of Urology 2004 Mar;11(3):133-41 Article: Anaerobes have been involved in many different types of urinary tract infection. This review describes the microbiology, diagnosis and management of urinary tract and genito-urinary suppurative infections caused by anaerobic bacteria. Read Article…
- Journal of Clinical Microbiology Vol. 45, No. 7 Article: Leptotrichia amnionii, a recently described, very fastidious, gram-negative anaerobic bacterium, is an opportunistic pathogen of the female urogenital tract. We report a case of second-trimester abortion in a patient with chorioamnionitis and L. amnionii bacteremia and a case of renal abscess in a female 5 weeks postpartum. Read Article…
- Open Forum Infectious Diseases 2018 Feb; 5(2): ofy015 Article: Actinotignum schaalii is an underappreciated cause of urinary tract infections (UTIs) in older adults. The diagnosis may be missed due to difficulty isolating and identifying the organism. Complications can result because the organism is intrinsically resistant to 2 commonly used drugs to treat UTI, as illustrated by this case. Read Article…
- The Journal of Sexual Medicine 2022 Feb;19(2):356-363 Article: Background: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is an emerging technology that may allow for more sensitive and sophisticated microbial testing of the microbiota of penile prostheses (PP). Aim: To describe the microorganism profiles of PP explanted for infection, erosion, and mechanical malfunction using NGS. Read Article…
- Journal of Urology Vol. 201, No. 4S Article: NGS allows a comprehensive analysis of the genomic profile of rectal microbiota and, most importantly, the identification of resistance genes to the standard antibacterial empiric prophylaxis. The aim of our pilot study was to evaluate NGS of rectal swabs in patients before transrectal biopsy of the prostate, seeking to prevent urinary tract infection (UTI). Read Article…
