Prevalence and antibiogram of uropathogens among Jordanian patients with chronic kidney disease

Article C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

This study looked at urine samples from 150 people in Jordan. It found that people with chronic kidney disease often have bacteria in their urine that resist common antibiotics. This shows a link between kidney disease and hard-to-treat infections, but it does not prove cause.
