The group A Streptococcus (GAS) causes diseases that range from mild (e.g. pharyngitis) to severely invasive (e.g. necrotizing fasciitis). Strain- and serotype-specific differences influence the ability of isolates to cause individual diseases. At the center of this variability is the CovR/S
The group A streptococcus (GAS) causes a variety of human diseases, including toxic shock syndrome and necrotizing fasciitis, which are both associated with significant mortality. Even the superficial self-limiting diseases caused by GAS, such as pharyngitis, impose a significant economic burden on

Objective: To identify the clinical features of mononucleosis caused by co-infection of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and cytomegalovirus (CMV) in adult patients. Methods: A total of 103 inpatients with mononucleosis in Peking University Third Hospital from May 2013 to May 2016 were collected as the
Chlamydophila pneumoniae is an obligate intracellular bacterium that causes bronchitis, pharyngitis, and pneumonia and may be involved in atherogenesis and Alzheimer's disease. Genome sequencing has identified three eukaryote-type serine/threonine protein kinases, Pkn1, Pkn5, and PknD, that may be
BACKGROUND
Adult onset Still's disease (juvenile rheumatoid arthritis with septic appearance) is rare, leading to clinical signs similar to those seen in bacterial sepsis, lymphomas, rheumatological, or systemic autoimmune diseases. The disease can present with a fever of unknown origin, and can
