To investigate the dynamics of nasopharyngeal colonization with Streptococcus pneumoniae, and to determine the prevalent serogroups/types (SGT) and their antimicrobial susceptibility, we studied 100 infants attending our well-baby clinic. Nasopharyngeal swab specimens were obtained at 6, 10, 14, 18 and 22 weeks and at 9 and 18 months of age and submitted for culture, serotyping and antimicrobial susceptibility testing of S. pneumoniae. Colonization with pneumococcus was seen on at least one occasion in 81 infants. The median age of acquisition was 11 weeks and the median duration of carriage was 1 3 months. The common SGTs identified were 6, 19, 14 and 15. SGT 1, which was a common invasive isolate in children in our hospital during this period, was not isolated from these children. Sequential colonization by 2, 3 or 4 SGTs was observed in 18, 5 and 2 children, respectively. Resistance to penicillin, chloramphenicol, cotrimoxazole and erythromycin was observed in 0, 13 (6%) 11 (5 %) and 5 (3 %) isolates, respectively. There was a significant difference in susceptibility to cotrimoxazole between colonizing and invasive isolates (5 % vs. 40 %, P<0.0001). 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: We sought to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Amplatzer septal occluder (ASO) to close very large pulmonary arteriovenous fistula (PAVF). BACKGROUND: Transcatheter coil embolization, the standard treatment for PAVF, has potential complications particularly in patients with very large fistulas. Several recently available devices have been tried effectively, however, they too have limitations. METHODS: During 2004, three patients (aged 17-56 years), diagnosed with large PAVF including one with pulmonary artery (PA) to left atrial (LA) fistula, had interventional closure prospectively using ASO. Following hemodynamic evaluation and angiographic localization of PAVF, the feeding artery (FA) was selectively cannulated with Amplatzer delivery sheath. ASO, with the right atrial (RA) disc diameter equal to or up to 4 mm larger than the maximum diameter of FA, was delivered through it in such a way that the left atrial disc assumed an oblong shape and the right atrial disc retained its designed flat configuration for better anchorage and thrombogenicity. RESULTS: All patients had very large PAVF fed by a single FA (size 12-24 mm), which was closed completely, without complications, using ASO (size 7-16 mm; RA disc diameter 15-26 mm). Their arterial saturation rose from mean 72.3% to 97.3%. Follow up (1.5-3 years) showed disappearance of the radiological shadows and stable arterial saturations (mean 97.7%). CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that, using the new criteria for device size selection and modified technique of implantation, very large PAVFs including PA to LA fistula can be closed safely, effectively and nonsurgically with ASO. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Patients with alcohol dependence syndrome can present with delirium which will mask underlying organic causes for the delirium. However, other medical diseases can also present with similar symptoms and should not be missed. The issues related to differentiating the different causes of delirium are briefly discussed. We describe a case of tuberculous meningitis in a patient with history of alcohol dependence who presented with delirium. METHOD: A case report. RESULTS: A 38-year-old male was admitted with history of irrelevant talk and abnormal behaviour of 2-month duration. He was also disoriented and his short-term memory was impaired. He reported visual hallucinations. He had history of alcohol dependence of 5 years. A detailed mental status examination and neurological workup revealed an organic psychosis. CT scan showed a hypodense lesion suggestive of a tuberculoma. The cerebrospinal fluid findings were corroborative. He responded to antituberculous drugs which he took for one and a half years and recovered completely. He also underwent group therapy for his alcohol dependence and has since then refrained from alcohol intake. Currently he has gone back to his work as a car mechanic. CONCLUSION: We have highlighted the need for diagnosing and investigating carefully the cause of delirium in a patient with alcohol dependence syndrome. This shows that other curable causes of delirium must also be investigated in patients with alcohol dependence. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Chondrolysis of the hip secondary to severe trauma, prolonged immobilization and slipped capital femoral epiphysis have been well documented. There have not been many reports, however, of idiopathic chondrolysis of the hip. We here present our experience with 21 hips with an average follow-up of 23.4 months. METHODS: Twenty patients (21 hips), with gross deformities of the hip who presented with fibrous ankylosis were treated over a 23-year period. Average age at presentation was 13 years. None of the patients responded to a trial of conservative treatment (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications, traction and physiotherapy.) RESULTS: Most of the preoperative deformities were corrected following arthrotomy, capsulectomy and skeletal traction. However, return of normal hip motion was not seen in any of the patients. Fibrous ankylosis in a functional position was seen to develop in two patients; one patient underwent hip arthrodesis, while another with bilateral involvement underwent excision arthroplasties. CONCLUSIONS: Circumferential capsulectomy with aggressive mobilization of the hip can correct the deformities associated with this condition, although long-term results are uniformly disappointing with regard to return of hip joint motion in cases of late presentation. 相似文献
