In May and June 1973, 11 patients on the surgical service at the University of Maryland Hospital had bacteremia caused by Pseudomonas species. Seven of the isolates recovered from blood cultures had the same antibiogram (sensitive only to chloramphenicol and tetracycline). Ten of the 11 patients
To assess trajectory patterns of C-reactive protein (CRP) and plasma albumin (PA) levels around bacteremia.Population-based study, 2418 community-acquired bacteremia patients, CRP and PA specimens from 30 days before through 30 days after bacteremia (day Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (S. maltophilia) bacteremia causes significant morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised hosts. However, incidence and risk factors for mortality in S. maltophilia bacteremia following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) remain
No study has evaluated C-reactive protein (CRP) and plasma albumin (PA) levels longitudinally in patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML).We studied defined events in 818 adult patients with AML in relation to 60,209 CRP and PA measures. We investigated Pre-existing renal insufficiency serves as a common risk factor in the development of acute renal failure. Acute renal failure is a common finding in patients with bacteremia and is associated with poor prognosis. A total of 2722 consecutive patients 18 years old or older, fulfilling strike criteria
Hepcidin-25 is a key regulatory hormone of iron homeostasis in humans, and its production is greatly upregulated by inflammation as well as iron overload. The aim of this study was to investigate the pathophysiological role of hepcidin-25 in patients with systemic inflammatory response We investigated the clinical features of intensive care unit (ICU) patients with concomitant severe dengue infection and bacteraemia to identify risk factors for this comorbidity. The records of all ICU dengue patients admitted during the period of 31 July-30 November 2015 were reviewed. Patients
Bacteremia is a common complication in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients, causing high morbidity and mortality. We investigated characteristics, pathogens, and sites of infection using a cohort of 64 female adults from a single university hospital in Reticuloendothelial (RE) clearance dysfunction, which can be induced by opsonic fibronectin deficiency, has been correlated with organ failure during sepsis. We investigate the role of opsonic fibronectin deficiency and RE blockade in modulating alterations in intestinal transvascular fluid balance
To assess the effects of intra-abdominal bacteremia on lung cellular function in vivo, we used electron microscopy to quantify the uptake of 6 nm diameter, albumin-coated colloidal gold particles (overall diam. 20.8 nm) by cells in the lungs of rats made septic by the introduction of live bacteria
This study retrospectively investigated 149 episodes of Acinetobacter baumannii bacteremia which occurred during a 41-month period from September 1997 to January 2001. Bacteremia was nosocomial in 139 (93%) of the episodes and community-acquired in 10 (7%). Thirty three deaths (22.1%) were
Twelve dogs were divided into two groups of six each, and were infused with bis-3,5-dibromosalicyl fumarate stroma-free hemoglobin (DBBF-Hb) or albumin. Their responses to an intravenous bolus of Escherichia coli were followed for 4 hr. Bacterial clearance from the blood stream was studied using
BACKGROUND
Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) have a lifelong increased risk of systemic infection, which may be associated with episodes of life-threatening bacteremia. Information concerning specific organisms causing bacteremia, the sites of primary infection, and clinical predictors for
Although multidrug-resistant (MDR) gram-negative bacteremia (GNB) has been recognized as an important cause of morbidity and mortality among abdominal solid organ transplant (ASOT) recipients, there are no data on its prognostic factors after an interim standard definition of MDR was proposed in
The subject was a 63-year-old man. The patient was transported by ambulance to the hospital because of dyspnea caused by carcinomatous pleurisy and carcinomatous pericarditis, after which pericardial drainage was performed; however, Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia arose as a complication. Adequate
