Fulminant Hepatic Failure and Fatal Cerebral Edema Following Clostridium perfringens Bacteremia: Case Report and Review of Literature.

Only registered users can translate articles

Clostridium perfringens (CP) bacteremia is a rare but rapidly fatal infection. Only 36 cases of CP bacteremia with gas containing liver abscesses on image studies have been reported in the literature since 1990. In this report, we describe a 65-year-old diabetic male with CP bacteremia which

Influence of the lysosomal elastase inhibitor eglin on the development of interstitial lung edema in E. coli bacteremia in pigs.

Only registered users can translate articles

Infusion of 3 X 10(10) live E. coli cells into anesthetized piglets induced severe septicemia with characteristic alterations in systemic and pulmonary circulation, lung function and morphology, blood cell counts and plasma protein composition. The simultaneous infusion of the elastase-cathepsin G

A rare case of Clostridium sordellii bacteremia in an immunocompromised patient.

Only registered users can translate articles

Clostridium sordellii is a gram-positive, anaerobic sporeforming rod with peritrichous flagella that is rarely associated with disease in humans. In most cases, infections occur after trauma, childbirth and routine gynecological procedures or intravenous drug abuse. C. sordellii produce several

Toxic shock syndrome related to simultaneous Staphylococcus aureus epiglottic abscess and group A streptococcal pharyngitis with bacteremia.

Only registered users can translate articles

A case of toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is reported in which both a TSST-1-producing Staphylococcus aureus strain and a group A beta-hemolytic streptococcal strain (GABHS) were involved. The S. aureus group I strain was isolated from an epiglottic abscess, and the GABHS strain from tonsils and blood

Edema fluid and coagulation changes during fulminant pulmonary edema.

Only registered users can translate articles

Edema fluid and a coagulation profile were obtained in 45 patients (17 to 87 years) during fulminant pulmonary edema. Left ventricular failure and/or volume overload accounted for edema in 18 patients. In another 27 patients, edema developed in association with other features that typify the adult

Impact of bacteremia on the pathogenesis of experimental pneumococcal meningitis.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Bacteremia plays a major role in the outcome of pneumococcal meningitis. This experimental study investigated how bacteremia influences the pathophysiologic profile of the brain. METHODS Rats with Streptococcus pneumoniae meningitis were randomized to 1 of 3 groups of infected study rats:

The ex vivo perfused human lung is resistant to injury by high-dose S. pneumoniae bacteremia

Only registered users can translate articles

Few patients with bacteremia from a nonpulmonary source develop acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, the mechanisms that protect the lung from injury in bacteremia have not been identified. We simulated bacteremia by adding Streptococcus pneumoniae to the perfusate of the ex

Role of pulmonary edema in the acute pulmonary response to sepsis.

Only registered users can translate articles

There is evidence that both bronchoconstriction and accumulation of lung water may contribute to the early alterations in lung function following septicemia. Eigher of these may be mediated by blood components. To assess these proposed mechanisms the changes in hemodynamics, pulmonary mechanics, gas

Bacteremia: host-specific lung clearance and pulmonary failure.

Only registered users can translate articles

Pulmonary effects, lung clearance, and tissue retention of blood-borne Pseudomonas aeruginosa were compared in dogs (n = 5) and pigs (n = 5) during continuous 6-hour intravenous infusion of 1.2(10(9)) bacteria/min/20 kg. Control pigs received an equal volume of sterile saline. In contrast to

Cardiac depression in bacteremia.

Only registered users can translate articles

Hemodynamic and respiratory effects of a 5-hr IV infusion of Ps. aeruginosa at a dose of 10(8) organisms per ml per minute were studied in 6 dogs. Four dogs served as controls. Gramnegative bacteremia, with 70,000 +/- 1,800 organisms per ml of blood, caused a 50% reduction of cardiac output at three

Factors Associated with Streptococcal Bacteremia in Diarrheal Children under Five Years of Age and Their Outcome in an Urban Hospital in Bangladesh.

Only registered users can translate articles

Although Streptococcal bacteremia is common in diarrheal children with high morbidity and mortality, no systematic data are available on Streptococcal bacteremia in diarrheal children. We sought to evaluate the factors associated with Streptococcal bacteremia in diarrheal children under five years

Edema formation in the newborn lung.

Only registered users can translate articles

Pulmonary edema is an important cause of respiratory distress in newborn infants. It occurs with severe perinatal asphyxia, heart failure, hyaline membrane disease, persistent patency of the ductus arteriosus, pneumonitis from group B beta-hemolytic streptococcus, and chronic lung disease

Viridans streptococcal bacteremia-related encephalopathy in childhood with malignancy.

Only registered users can translate articles

Viridans streptococcal bacteremia is a prognostic factor in pediatric patients with malignant disease accompanied by severe neutropenia. Here the authors describe 4 patients with viridans streptococcal bacteremia-related encephalopathy who showed serious complications, which included seizures and

A case of bacteremia and disseminated intravascular coagulation after the conduit procedure for tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary atresia.

Only registered users can translate articles

A case undergoing conduit procedure for tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary atresia was complicated postoperatively by bacteremia due to non-fermentative Gram-negative rods and by disseminated intravascular coagulation. He was able to be cured without any sequela. The patient was a 16-year-old male,
