nalidixic acid and Sensitivity and Specificity

nalidixic acid has been researched along with Sensitivity and Specificity in 19 studies

Sensitivity and Specificity: Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives. Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" By contrast, none of the low-susceptibility strains showed inhibition zones against nalidixic acid, while the low-susceptibility strains with amino acid substitutions in both GyrA and ParC did not show inhibition zones against pipemidic acid discs, indicating that low-susceptibility strains can be detected with high sensitivity and specificity by the presence or absence of inhibition zones for earlier quinolones."3.91Earlier generation quinolones can be useful in identifying Haemophilus influenzae strains with low susceptibility to quinolone isolated from paediatric patients. ( Noguchi, N; Tanaka, E; Wajima, T, 2019)
"In an outbreak of shigellosis in a kibbutz in Northeastern Israel, oral nalidixic acid failed clinically in 35% and microbiologically in 28."1.32Azithromycin as an alternative to nalidixic acid in the therapy of childhood shigellosis. ( Colodner, R; Merom, R; Miron, D; Torem, M, 2004)
