Concordance of endotoxemia with gram-negative bacteremia in patients with gram-negative sepsis: a meta-analysis.
The Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) assay is a sensitive method for detecting endotoxin. Using gram-negative (GN) bacteremia as the basis for comparison, concordance with endotoxemia in 45 studies could be expressed as an odds ratio. Calculation of summary odds ratios by the Mantel-Haenszel-Peto method indicated that the concordance of the results was no higher by the chromogenic LAL assay than ...
متن کاملGram-positive and gram-negative bacterial toxins in sepsis
Bacterial sepsis is a major cause of fatality worldwide. Sepsis is a multi-step process that involves an uncontrolled inflammatory response by the host cells that may result in multi organ failure and death. Both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria play a major role in causing sepsis. These bacteria produce a range of virulence factors that enable them to escape the immune defenses and dis...
متن کاملChallenges in the treatment of infections caused by gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria in patients with cancer and neutropenia.
Infection is the most common complication of chemotherapy-induced neutropenia. Bacterial infections predominate during the early stages of a neutropenic episode, whereas invasive fungal infections tend to occur later. The epidemiological pattern of bacterial infection continues to evolve globally and locally at the institutional level, as do patterns of susceptibility and resistance. These tren...
متن کاملserum procalcitonin levels distinguish gram-negative bacterial sepsis from gram-positive bacterial and fungal sepsis
background: serum procalcitonin (pct) levels differ in patients with bacterial or fungal infections and are significantly elevated in patients with gram-negative bacteremia. we evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of different inflammatory markers to discriminate sepsis caused by different pathogens. materials and methods: we included 328 episodes of bacteremia from 292 patients with sepsis and 31...
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...
