        Background: Listeriosis is a severe infection that causes miscarriage and stillbirth in pregnant women. It is common in developing nations with unsanitary living circumstances. Aims of the study: The study's goals are to isolate and identify Listeria monocytogenes from the placenta and cervix of women who have had many abortions and investigate the link between this germ and occurrences of miscarriage and premature birth. Examine their ability to create virulence factors, and then investigate the susceptibility and resistance of bacteria to various antibiotics. Method: 86 cervical and placental swabs were obtained from women who had an abortion or were in the early stages of labor. Listeria monocytogenes were isolated and identified, and the bacterium's virulence factors were investigated and a susceptibility test to common antibiotics. Results: The results showed that 34 of the 86 swabs tested positive for L. monocytogenes, accounting for 39.53 percent of the total. It was divided amongst 29 isolates from cervical (pap smear) samples (43.93 %) and five isolates from 20 placental swabs (25%). The age group (26-35 years) had the highest rate of miscarriage or early deliveries (41.86%). The current findings revealed that the most significant number of samples were taken from women who had stillbirth 33 (38.37%) compared to women who had abortions and premature births 22 (27.915%), 29 (33.72%), and so on. There was no link between chronic disorders like hypertension or other conditions like gestational diabetes and listeriosis susceptibility, as most of the cases were free of these conditions (26.74%). The majority of the positive cases were from uneducated people who lived in a rural area with a common standard of living (27.91%). The bacterium's virulence factors, such as the synthesis of Protease, Lipase, and Lecithinase enzymes and its slime layer, were investigated. The susceptibility of the listeria to certain medications was also investigated, with all isolates showing resistance to the antibiotic Nalidixic acid (100%) but sensitivity to the antibiotics Ampicillin and Chloramphenicol (100%) and varying sensitivity to the rest.
        Antecedentes: la listeriosis es una infección grave que provoca aborto espontáneo y muerte fetal en mujeres embarazadas. Es común en países en desarrollo con condiciones de vida insalubres. Objetivos del estudio: Los objetivos del estudio son aislar e identificar Listeria monocytogenes de la placenta y el cuello uterino de mujeres que han tenido muchos abortos e investigar el vínculo entre este germen y los casos de aborto espontáneo y parto prematuro. Examine su capacidad para crear factores de virulencia y luego investigue la susceptibilidad y resistencia de las bacterias a varios antibióticos. Método: Se obtuvieron 86 hisopados cervicales y placentarios de mujeres que abortaron o se encontraban en las primeras etapas del trabajo de parto. Se aisló e identificó Listeria monocytogenes, y se investigaron los factores de virulencia de la bacteria y se realizó una prueba de susceptibilidad a los antibióticos comunes. Resultados: Los resultados mostraron que 34 de los 86 hisopos dieron positivo para L. monocytogenes, lo que representa el 39,53 por ciento del total. Se dividió entre 29 aislamientos de muestras de cuello uterino (panicolau) (43,93%) y 5 aislamientos de 20 hisopados de placenta (25 %). El grupo de edad (26-35 años) presentó la mayor tasa de abortos espontáneos o partos prematuros (41,86%). Los hallazgos actuales revelaron que el número más significativo de muestras se tomó de mujeres que tuvieron muerte fetal 33 (38,37%) en comparación con mujeres que tuvieron abortos y partos prematuros 22 (27,915%), 29 (33,72%), y así sucesivamente. No hubo relación entre trastornos crónicos como la hipertensión u otras condiciones como la diabetes gestacional y la susceptibilidad a la listeriosis, ya que la mayoría de los casos estaban libres de estas condiciones (26,74%). La mayoría de los casos positivos procedían de personas sin educación y vivían en una zona rural con un nivel de vida ordinario (27,91%). Se investigaron los factores de virulencia de la bacteria, como la síntesis de las enzimas proteasa, lipasa y lecitinasa y su capa mucosa. También se investigó la susceptibilidad de la listeria a ciertos medicamentos, mostrando todos los aislamientos resistencia al antibiótico ácido nalidíxico (100%) pero sensibilidad a los antibióticos ampicilina y cloranfenicol (100%) y sensibilidad variable al resto.
