Diagnostic Value of the Fimbriae Distribution Pattern in Localization of Urinary Tract Infection
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common infectious diseases. UTIs are mainly caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC), and are either upper or lower according to the infection site. Fimbriae are necessary for UPEC to adhere to the host uroepithelium, and are abundant and di...
