Bacterial Respiratory Infections Complicating Human Immunodeficiency Virus.
Opportunistic bacterial and fungal infections of the lower respiratory tract, most commonly those caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae (the pneumococcus), Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and Pneumocystis jirovecii, remain the major causes of mortality in those infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Bacterial respiratory pathogens most prevalent in those infected with HIV, other than M. tub...
متن کاملIntertrigo and secondary skin infections.
Intertrigo is a superficial inflammatory dermatitis occurring on two closely opposed skin surfaces as a result of moisture, friction, and lack of ventilation. Bodily secretions, including perspiration, urine, and feces, often exacerbate skin inflammation. Physical examination of skin folds reveals regions of erythema with peripheral scaling. Excessive friction and inflammation can cause skin br...
متن کاملBacterial infections of the skin.
This article discusses common bacterial skin infections, including impetigo, cellulitis and erysipelas folliculitis, staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome, blistering distal dactylitis, furuncles and carbuncles, and pseudomonal infections such as external otitis and malignant external otitis, ecthyma gangrenosum, pseudomonal folliculitis, toe web infection, and erysipeloid.
متن کاملAntibody-mediated bacterial adhesion to cytomegalovirus-induced Fc receptors. Potential relationship to secondary infections complicating herpesvirus infections.
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) and other viruses within the herpes group have recently been shown to induce Fc receptors in infected monolayers. We have examined the possibility that such receptors might facilitate the adherence of antibody-coated bacteria to CMV-infected cells. To do this, we infected confluent human embryonic lung (HEL) cell monolayers with CMV (strain AD 169) and then used a double r...
متن کاملSecondary Bacterial Infections Associated with Influenza Pandemics
Lower and upper respiratory infections are the fourth highest cause of global mortality (Lozano et al., 2012). Epidemic and pandemic outbreaks of respiratory infection are a major medical concern, often causing considerable disease and a high death toll, typically over a relatively short period of time. Influenza is a major cause of epidemic and pandemic infection. Bacterial co/secondary infect...
