A double-blind trial was carried out in 177 patients with acute symptomatic urinary tract infections to assess the efficacy and tolerability of nitrofurantoin plus sulphadiazine at two dosage levels. Patients were allocated, at random, to receive 7-days' treatment with either 50 mg nitrofurantoin
The aim of this study was to determine if a three-day treatment of lower urinary tract infection (UTI) is effective. 215 women with symptoms of lower UTI, seen in general practice, were randomly allocated to a double-blind study and given either amoxycillin 1000 mg twice a day for three days or
OBJECTIVE
In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the frequency of significant bacteriuria and antibiotic resistance characteristics in children with myelodysplasia in whom clean intermittent catheterization was administered.
METHODS
The study group was composed of 71 patients with myelodysplasia
