METHODS A 43-year-old woman was admitted for treatment of a nephrotic syndrome with increasing oedema, ascites, dyspnoea and nausea during the preceding 2 weeks. METHODS There was a proteinuria of 25 g daily. Renal biopsy (seven glomeruli) showed a minimal-change glomerulopathy. METHODS Prednisone

The epidemiology of community-acquired bacterial meningitis (CABM) in adults has changed significantly in the past several years. Despite substantial improvement in patient care, CABM remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Thus, new prognostic factors could help improve patient

Two cases of rapidly fatal Listeria rhombencephalitis with normal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) findings occurred in previously healthy adults. The infection presented with nausea and headache followed by fever and signs of lower cranial nerve dysfunction, without associated meningismus, and progressed

Listeria monocytogenes is a gram-positive bacterium that causes listeriosis. Brain abscess is a very uncommon manifestation of listeriosis and has not been reported to be associated with adalimumab (humira), one of the approved medications for treating Crohn's disease. A 45-year-old female with

BACKGROUND The mortality of septicaemia, meningitis and encephalitis caused by Listeria monocytogenes is 20-40%. Twenty-one cases of invasive listeriosis associated with alemtuzumab, including at least 16 in patients with multiple sclerosis, have been published or reported to the World Health

Canine osteosarcoma (OSA) is an aggressive bone tumor in dogs. Standard-of-care treatment typically results in relatively short survival times; thus, alternative treatments are needed to confer a survival advantage. It has been shown that OSA is an immunogenic tumor, suggesting that immune

The bacterium Listeria monocytogenes is the causative agent of listeriosis, a highly fatal opportunistic foodborne infection. Listeria spp. are isolated from a diversity of environmental sources, including soil, water, effluents, a large variety of foods, and the feces of humans and animals. Recent

Listeria rhombencephalitis is a rare cause of brain stem encephalitis. We report a case with a history of immunosupressive therapy due to Takayasu's arteritis that was treated with corticosteroids and linezolid for Listeria rhombencephalitis. A 63-year-old woman was admitted to the hospital with
