A noncytopathic type 1a bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) was isolated from a free-ranging yearling female mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) from northwestern Wyoming (USA). The mule deer was emaciated, weak, and salivating, and Arcanobacterium pyogenes was cultured from lung abscesses. Bovine viral
A 63-year-old previously healthy man was admitted to our hospital with diarrhea that had lasted for about 4 weeks, high fever and dyspnea. Chest computed tomography showed consolidation with a low-density area in the right middle lobe and small nodules with feeding vessels in the right upper lobe.
Twenty-eight patients with anaerobic pleuropulmonary infections were treated with clindamycin alone or clindamycin with gentamicin. Sixteen of the patients presented with pneumonitis, nine with necrotizing pneumonia, and three with lung abscesses. The average length of treatment was 13.8 days, and
OBJECTIVE
Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a rare innate immune deficiency with neutrophil function disorder. In this retrospective study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical features of the patients with CGD.
METHODS
We presented eight patients (6 boys, 2 girls) with CGD which were evaluated at
From January, 1990, to December 31, 1990, 75 children with multiply resistant Salmonella gastroenteritis were studied at the Children's Hospital "Ricardo Gutierrez" of Buenos Aires. These children ranged from 1 month to 15 years of age. Infection was community-acquired in 20 (26.6%), nosocomially
A 9 1/2-month-old girl was transferred to our institution for evaluation and treatment of a lung abscess. Presenting symptoms included low-grade fever, irritability, diarrhea, and tachypnea. Chest radiograph showed a dense opacity with an air-fluid level in the lower portion of the right hemithorax.
Cefodizime (THR-221, CDZM), a new cephalosporin antibiotic, was evaluated for its safety and efficacy in 27 children with various bacterial infections. The episodes of infections included pneumonia (6 cases), bronchopneumonia (11 cases), lung abscess (1 case), acute pharyngitis (2 cases), cervical
Fifteen patients with documented bacterial lower respiratory tract infections were treated with cefoperazone (2 gm every 12 hours, administered parenterally) as the single antibiotic therapy. Pulmonary infections included pneumonia (10), anaerobic lung abscess (2), bronchitis (2), and exacerbation
A 49-kg (107.8-lb) sexually intact male Arabian foal was evaluated at 3 days of age because of profuse watery diarrhea, anorexia, and signs of abdominal pain. Physical examination findings were unremarkable except for evidence of diarrhea. A catheter was placed in the right jugular vein for
Clinical evaluation, safety and kinetics in serum of sulbactam/cefoperazone (SBT/CPZ) in patients with lower respiratory tract infections have been studied in a multicenter trial participated by 28 institutions in Kyushu area during a period of 13 months from March 1987 to March 1988. 1. Mean peak
