Hypophosphataemia in septicaemia: higher incidence in gram-negative than in gram-positive infections.
Phosphataemia has been investigated in 54 patients with Gram-negative septicaemias; either absolute (serum phosphate <2 mg./100 ml.) or relative (P./B.U.N. 0.04) hypophosphataemia was found in 69% of all determinations. In 37 patients with Gram-positive septicaemias hypophosphataemia was present in only 24%, many of whom had additional Gram-negative bacteriuria and possible Gram-negative septic...
متن کاملGRAM NEGATIVE BACILLI IN BURNS
In a period of nine months, 225 strains of Gram-negative bacilli isolated from burns were identified by a variety of tests in two burn centers in Tehran. The most common species were Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter agglomerans, Enterobacter cloacae and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Many strains of acinetobacter spp, providencia spp, proteus spp, ser...
متن کاملPost-neurosurgical meningitis; gram negative bacilli vs. gram positive cocci
Background: Post-neurosurgical meningitis is a significant cause of mortality and morbidity. In this study we aimed to compare the differences of clinical, laboratory features and outcomes between the post-neurosurgical meningitis caused by gram-negative bacilli (GNB) and gram-positive cocci (GPC). Methods: Cases of post-neurosurgical meningitis (with positive CSF culture) were included. After...
متن کاملGram-negative versus gram-positive prosthetic joint infections.
To the Editor—We read with great interest the report by Hsieh et al [1] in the 1 October 2009 issue of the journal on gram-negative prosthetic joint infections (GN PJIs). We congratulate the authors for their substantial contribution. The authors revealed that treating GN PJI with debridement was associated with a lower 2-year cumulative probability of success than treating gram-positive (GP) P...
متن کاملStronger T Cell Immunogenicity of Ovalbumin Expressed Intracellularly in Gram-Negative than in Gram-Positive Bacteria
This study aimed to clarify whether Gram-positive (G+) and Gram-negative (G-) bacteria affect antigen-presenting cells differently and thereby influence the immunogenicity of proteins they express. Lactobacilli, lactococci and Escherichia coli strains were transformed with plasmids conferring intracellular ovalbumin (OVA) production. Murine splenic antigen presenting cells (APCs) were pulsed wi...
