Aerococcus urinae endocarditis - A case report. [PDF]

IDCases
Aerococcus urinae is a gram-positive coccus bacterium with a previously underestimated prevalence due to morphological similarities to other gram-positive cocci. Development of newer diagnostic technologies (such as matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry MALDI-TOF) led to increased recognition of Aerococcus urinae ...

Prosthetic valve endocarditis caused by Aerococcus Urinae. [PDF]

IDCases, 2020
Infective endocarditis (IE) caused by Aerococcus urinae is rare. The true incidence rate of this pathogen is likely underestimated as this is easily misidentified as Staphylococci or Streptococci. It is also associated with increased risk of complications such as systemic emboli.

Aerococcus urinae Aortitis: A Case Report. [PDF]

Open Forum Infect Dis, 2019
AbstractBackgroundAerococcus urinae is a Gram-positive coccus that is increasingly recognized as a urinary pathogen since the introduction of mass spectrometry for identification of bacteria. We report a case of abdominal aortitis (with aneurysm) caused by A urinae in a male with recurrent urinary tract infections and recently treated A urinae ...

Fatal Aerococcus urinae Aortic Valve Endocarditis with Severe Regurgitation. [PDF]

Am J Case Rep, 2022
BACKGROUND Aerococcus species are a rare cause of endocarditis. Micro-organism identification and antibiotic choice can pose significant management challenges to clinicians who care for patients with this infection. Aerococcus is a gram-positive micro-organism which is commonly misidentified because it shares many similarities with streptococcus and ...

Aerococcus viridans [PDF]

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 155-158, 2013., 2013
Aerococcus viridans is an infrequent human pathogen and few cases of infective endocarditis have been reported. A case involving a 69‐year‐old man with colon cancer and hemicolectomy 14 years previously, without recurrence, is reported. A diagnosis of native mitral valve endocarditis was established on the basis of clinical presentation, characteristic

Aerococcus urinae and Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2011
ABSTRACT Aerococcus urinae has been described as resistant to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (SXT), but the test medium may affect this observation. Twenty-seven clinical isolates of A. urinae tested susceptible to SXT in cation-adjusted Mueller-Hinton broth (CAMHB) plus lysed horse blood and ...

Lactobacillus crispatus‐dominated vaginal microbiome and Acinetobacter‐dominated seminal microbiome support beneficial ART outcome

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 102, Issue 7, Page 921-934, July 2023., 2023
Disturbed microbial communities in the reproductive tract in both partners may be one of the reasons for assisted reproductive technologies (ART) failure. In our study, Lactobacillus crispatus‐dominated vaginal microbiome and Acinetobacter‐dominated seminal microbiome supported beneficial ART outcome.

Analysis of insertions and extensions in the functional evolution of the ribonucleotide reductase family

Protein Science, Volume 31, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Ribonucleotide reductases (RNRs) are used by all free‐living organisms and many viruses to catalyze an essential step in the de novo biosynthesis of DNA precursors. RNRs are remarkably diverse by primary sequence and cofactor requirement, while sharing a conserved fold and radical‐based mechanism for nucleotide reduction.
