Long-term carriage of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia Coli
- 2012

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In 2009 we described an outbreak caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli in southern Sweden that occurred during 2005–2006. An important finding from the investigation was the long carriage times of the ESBL-producing E. coli in several of the patients, which in some cases exceeded 30 months. Here we report findings from the continued follow-up of bacterial carriage. In September 2010, 5 of the 42 patients still carried the bacteria after a median of 58 months (range 41–59 months), 18 had had repeatedly negative cultures after shedding bacteria for a median of 7.5 months (range 0–39 months), 16 had died while still shedding the bacteria for a median of 9 months (range 0–38 months), and 3 had been lost to follow-up.

- På sensommaren 1988 hade man i Skåne ett stort lokalt utbrott med 61 fall av infektioner med Yersinia enterocolitica. DEn kliniska bilden var avsevärt mildare än som brukar rapporteras, med diarré, magsmärtor och feber som dominerande symtom, och endast två fall av svårare komplikationer. Den sannolika smittkällan var mjölk från ett litet mejeri där hygienen inte var den bästa, Utbrottet visar på en av många risker med distribution av industriellt framställda kylda livsmedel.

Detection of noroviruses in raspberries associated with a gastroenteritis outbreak
- 2004

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Following an acute foodborne gastroenteritis outbreak in southern Sweden, stool specimens from five of nine ill patients were found positive for norovirus using reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. Epidemiological data pointed to raspberry cakes as the source of the outbreak. Using a combination of generic and patient-specific primers and novel food analysis methodology (with extraction efficiency control and inhibitor removal), norovirus strains from two different genogroups were directly identified in the contaminated raspberries.
