Infections caused by non-neoformans Cryptococcus spp., including laurentii, previously thought to be saprophyte and non-pathogenic, have become more common during the past few years, particularly in immunocompromised hosts. To best of our knowledge here, we present first case meningitis an patient due a fungus that has never been reported Pakistan. Our patient, 40-year old male, who had acquire...
Neisseria meningitidis causes fulminant meningitis and sepsis. Worldwide, N. meningitidis serogroup A is responsible for large epidemic outbreaks (e.g., subSaharan Africa) and serogroups B, C, Y and W-135 cause epidemic and endemic disease. Meningococci are usually transmitted from person to person through close contact with contaminated aerosols and secretions from the human nasopharynx. Labor...
TO THE EDITOR—Bacterial meningitis is a severe disease with substantial mortality and morbidity despite the availability of effective antimicrobial agents and adjunctive therapies [1, 2]. Recently, a study involving adults with community-acquired bacterial meningitis in Malawi showed that coinfection with Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) occurred in 79 of 149 bacterial meningitis patients (53%) and tha...
OBJECTIVE To prospectively analyze the prognostic factors for neurological complications of childhood bacterial meningitis. METHODS This prospective study enrolled 77 children from 1 month until 16 years of age, treated for bacterial meningitis during the period of January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2010. 16 relevant predictors were chosen to analyze their association with the incidence of ...
Background: Analysis of biofluids provides a unique window into the biochemical status of a living organism since the composition of a given biofluid will be modulated according to the level of function of the cells that are intimately concerned with its manufacture and secretion. One of the most successful approaches to biofluid analysis has been the application of NMR spectroscopy. Objective...
Bacterial meningitis and meningococcal sepsis are rare conditions with high case fatality rates. Early recognition and prompt treatment saves lives. In 1999 the British Infection Society produced a consensus statement for the management of immunocompetent adults with meningitis and meningococcal sepsis. Since 1999 there have been many changes. We therefore set out to produce revised guidelines ...
BACKGROUND Increased levels of plasma nuclear and mitochondrial DNA have been reported in critically ill patients. We tested the hypothesis that plasma nuclear and mitochondrial DNA are substantially increased in acute bacterial meningitis and decrease after antimicrobial therapy, and that plasma nuclear and mitochondrial DNA levels can predict treatment outcomes. METHODS We examined serial p...
Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-positive bacillus and facultative intracellular bacterium whose transmission occurs mainly through the consumption of contaminated food, L. monocytogenes invades the host cells using various protein and can escape to the human T-cell immune system by cell-to-cell spreading. If the infection is not controlled at the stage in which the bacterium is in the liver, f...
