Respiratory tract infections due to different rhinovirus serotypes and the influence of maternal antibodies on the clinical expression of the disease in infants.

Rhinoviruses were isolated from nasopharyngeal secretions of 49 children hospitalized because of severe respiratory tract infection. The isolates were typed using 90 type-specific antisera. No obvious relation between certain serotypes and the severity of illness was found. Serum samples were drawn from all children simultaneously with the nasopharyngeal secretions and screened for the presence of type-specific neutralizing antibodies. Children aged 1 week to 6 months had higher neutralizing antibody titers and revealed a lower degree of morbidity than older children. The decline of neutralizing serum antibodies with increasing age was correlated with a higher incidence of severe disease in those aged 7-12 months. Nevertheless, also in this age group children with mild clinical courses of disease were observed despite a low concentration or an absence of neutralizing serum antibodies. This indicates that not only neutralizing serum antibodies, but other factors also influence the clinical expression of RHV-induced disease.     

Is it time to reconsider initial antibiotic treatment strategies for severe urinary tract infections in Europe?

Until recently, most reported cases of bacteraemia caused by multidrug-resistant strains of Enterobacteriacae producing an extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) in Europe have been nosocomial in origin. However, increasing numbers of reports of community-acquired bacteraemia and urinary tract infection caused by ESBL-producing microorganisms suggest that the geographical origin of patients should be taken into account as a risk-factor for possible ESBL production. Early identification of patients at high-risk of infection with ESBL-producing microorganisms, based on their geographical origin and travel history, should help to optimise initial antibiotic treatment strategies for severe urinary tract infections in Europe.     

Disseminated histoplasmosis with oral manifestation

Histoplasmosis is a fungal disease that affects humans and is caused by Histoplasma capsulatum. The presentation of the infection may be acute, chronic, or disseminated. The disseminated form has extrapulmonary manifestations which may include oral manifestation a. A patient with AIDS sought treatment and he had disseminated histoplasmosis with oral manifestations. The purpose of this case report and literature review is to emphasize the role the dental team has in the diagnosis of disseminated disease when a patient presents with oral manifestations associated with the disease. This case report is clinically relevant because it is not uncommon for oral manifestations to be one of the first signs of systemic disease.     

过程管理在医院消毒灭菌中的应用

目的将过程管理应用于医院消毒灭菌中，规范医院消毒灭菌工作。方法以医院感染管理相关法规为依据，对消毒灭菌流程进行调查诊断，找出流程中的关键环节，以关键环节为质控点，对工作流程进行改造并实施过程管理。结果改善了硬件设施，工作流程更为科学，提高了技术水平和工作效率，消毒灭菌合格率明显提高。结论以医院感染管理相关法规为依据，以流程中的关键环节为质控点的过程管理，有利于规范医院消毒灭菌工作，实现由经验管理、终末管理向依法管理、过程管理转变。     

实质器官移植术后血浆IL-18、IL-10、IL-4检测在人巨细胞病毒感染中的意义

目的 探讨实质器官移植术后血浆中白介素18（IL－18）、白介素10（IL－10）、白介素4（IL－4）水平的检测在人巨细胞病毒（HCMV）感染中的意义。方法 对24例实质器官移植受者，用免疫组化法监测HCMV抗原血症。然后采用ELISA法测定血浆中IL－18、IL－10及IL－4的水平。结果 HCMV抗原阳性组IL－18的水平高于阴性组（P＜0.01），IL－10及IL－4的水平低于阴性组（均P＜0.05）。结论 血浆IL－18的水平可作为预测移植患者HCMV感染的一个有效指标，IL－10及IL－4的水平则可作为患者HCMV感染后体内免疫抑制程度的监测指标之一。     

门静脉高压症胃病与幽门螺杆菌感染关系的临床研究

目的 :探讨门静脉高压症胃病与幽门螺杆菌感染的关系。方法 :对 68例门静脉高压症胃病患者的上消化道粘膜病理改变、出血状况及与幽门螺杆菌感染之间的关系进行分析。结果 :肝功能受损越重 ,门静脉高压症胃病患者的病理改变越明显。在重度门静脉高压症胃病患者中 ,幽门螺杆菌的检出率为 69.44% ,而在轻度患者中 ,幽门螺杆菌的检出率为 43.75% ,两者比较有显著性差异 (χ2 =4.57,P<0 .0 5)。结论 :门静脉高压症胃病与幽门螺杆菌感染有一定的关系 ,病症越重 ,幽门螺杆菌的检出率越高

Mycetoma of the calf

 Actinomycetous infections typically involve either the head and neck or the extremities following a traumatic implantation. Classic clinical associations are draining sinus tracts. This case report describes the pathologic and MR findings of a relatively acute mycetomatous process involving the soft tissues. Pathologic findings in this case included an occasional granule composed of gram positive, thin branching elements. These and other findings were consistent with actinomycetes bacterium infection. The discussion centers around the use of MR, both with and without gadolinium, in evaluating this type of granulomatous infection. Infiltration of the adjacent subcutaneous tissues was easier to appreciate on both the T1-weighted images without gadolinium and the T1-weighted images with gadolinium when compared to the T2-weighted images. Signal characteristics as described in this case report may suggest a granulomatous process.
