2021, Indian Journal of Medical MicrobiologyCitation Excerpt :However, even in the same region, antibiotic resistance profiles of H. influenzae vary greatly among different infection sites. There were significant differences of the proportion of BLNAR strains of H. influenzae between respiratory and urinary specimens in a Japanese study [26]. The resistance rates to antibiotics were significantly different between respiratory isolates and vaginal isolates in previous study of ISPED [13].

Haemophilus spp., an emerging multidrug-resistant sexually transmitted pathogen
2020, Medecine et Maladies InfectieusesCitation Excerpt :The production of beta-lactamase is more important in urethral samples than in lower or upper respiratory tract samples [13]. Most of the resistance data comes from Japanese publications [6,8,9,13,14]. Compared to them, our strains are more frequently resistant to amoxicillin, tetracycline, third-generation cephalosporins, and fluoroquinolones.
