“…8,9 Empiric antibiotic treatment of AOM is based on the presumed presence of major bacterial pathogens, 3 but microbiological data are limited in Taiwan. 2,10 In this study, we describe the epidemiological and microbiological characteristics of culture-proven AOM in children of northern Taiwan.…”
S. pneumoniae and NTHi are common causes of culture-confirmed AOM in Taiwanese children. Although S. pyogenes is not as common, it usually causes AOM in children > 5 years of age and is associated with spontaneous otorrhea.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
