Meta-analysis of antibiotic susceptibility and the genotype of penicillin-binding proteins in Streptococcus pneumoniae.

Scandinavian journal of infectious diseases - 1 Jan 2008

Abstract excerpt

To further understanding of the mechanisms of development of resistance to penicillin in Streptococcus pneumoniae, and the role of penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) mutations to antibiotics resistance a meta-analysis was performed. Major databases, Pubmed, Current Contents, Biosis previews, Web of Science, were searched for studies that published within 1997 through to 2007, and reported the penicillin MIC and...
