coagulase/경색증

Induction of thrombosis in tumor vasculature represents an appealing strategy for combating cancer. Herein, we combined unique intrinsic coagulation properties of staphylocoagulase with new acquired functional potentials introduced by genetic engineering, to generate a novel bi-functional fusion

OBJECTIVE To describe a case of coagulase-negative Staphylococcus ventriculitis successfully treated with oral linezolid, for which good cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) penetration was observed. METHODS A 69-year-old man had an extraventricular drain inserted following a right cerebellar infarct. On day

A 77-year-old man visited our hospital with unstable gait following 2 months of anorexia. Brain MRI showed multiple infarcts; cardiac echocardiography revealed mitral-valve vegetation; and blood culture revealed methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci. The patient was diagnosed with

Acute myocardial infarction caused by septic embolism is usually fatal. A 40-year-old male patient who presented within 30 minutes of severe chest pain was admitted to the emergency department. An electrocardiogram showed a maximum 6 mm of acute ST elevations at V1-V4 derivations. His body

The thrombolytic properties of anisoylated plasminogen streptokinase activator complex (BRL 26921) and clinical results of the treatment were studied in 10 consecutive patients with acute myocardial infarction. Exclusion criteria were general contraindications against thrombolytic therapy and a time

A series of 16 consecutive patients with acute myocardial infarction was investigated with respect to changes in coagulatory parameters after intravenous short-term treatment with 1,500 000 IU streptokinase (SK) over a period of 90 minutes. Samples for coagulation assays (fibrinogen, thrombin, time

Induction of selective thrombosis and infarction in tumor-feeding vessels represents an attractive strategy to combat cancer. Here we took advantage of the unique coagulation properties of staphylocoagulase and genetically engineered it to generate a new fusion protein with novel anti-cancer

In 17 unaesthetized dogs several side branches of the left descending coronary artery were ligated. The ST-segment elevation in the epicardial ECG ascended to 22 mV after 5 min and to 19 mV after 20 min. Aortic pressure, left ventricular enddiastolic pressure, heart rate and hemostasiological

A patient with complicated acute myocardial infarction in who coagulase-positive hemolytic staphylococci followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa were isolated in serial cultures of catheter and blood samplles is reported. The latter was only sensitive to amikacine sulfate and was resistant to other

OBJECTIVE In bacterial shunt infection, CNS inflammation is a frequently observed complication that may cause vascular complications including vasospasms. Here, we describe the first patient with shunt infection-induced cerebral vasospasms. METHODS A 35 year old woman with a ventriculoperitoneal

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to analyse outcomes over 2 decades using cryopreserved vascular allografts to treat vascular infection. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study of patients identified from our institutional database who were treated for primary or secondary vascular infection

CONTEXT Coagulase-negative staphylococci are common colonizers of the human skin and have become increasingly recognized as agents of clinically significant nosocomial infections. CASE REPORT The case of a 79-year-old male patient with multi-infarct dementia who presented systemic inflammatory

The authors presents case report of a 59-years-old man with triple vessel coronary artery disease, hypertension after myocardial infarction of the inferior wall with sternal wound complcations after coronary bypass grafting (CABG). On the fourth postoperative day the patient developed sternal

In this clinical study we tried to find out the clinical significance of positive blood cultures between Jan. 1984 and Dec. 1989 in the Nagasaki Rosai Hospital. In this period the association between the isolated bacteria from blood cultures (398 specimens: 17.9%) and clinical background were
