Community-acquired bacterial meningitis
Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2017 Purpose of review Bacterial meningitis is a medical emergency and is associated with a high disease burden. We reviewed recent progress in the management of patients with community-acquired bacterial meningitis. Recent findings The worldwide burden of disease of bacterial meningitis

Repeated pulse feeding induces functional stability in anaerobic digestion [PDF]
, 2013 Anaerobic digestion is an environmental key technology in the future bio-based economy. To achieve functional stability, a minimal microbial community diversity is required. This microbial community should also have a certain “elasticity”, i.e.

Unlocking the microbiome communities of Banana (Musa spp.) under disease stressed (Fusarium wilt) and non-stressed conditions [PDF]
, 2020 We assessed the diversity, structure, and assemblage of bacterial and fungal communities associated with banana plants with and without Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc) symptoms.

Plants changed the response of bacterial community to the nitrogen and phosphorus addition ratio
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 IntroductionHuman activities have increased the nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) supply ratio of the natural ecosystem, which affects the growth of plants and the circulation of soil nutrients.

Amniotic fluid from healthy term pregnancies does not harbor a detectable microbial community [PDF]
, 2018 Recent studies have conflicting data regarding the presence of intra-amniotic microbiota. Viral communities are increasingly recognized as important although overlooked components of the human microbiota.

Effect of biochars pyrolyzed in N2 and CO2, and feedstock on microbial community in metal(loid)s contaminated soils [PDF]
, 2019 Little is known about the effects of applying amendments on soil for immobilizing metal(loid)s on the soil microbial community. Alterations in the microbial community were examined after incubation of treated contaminated soils.

Membrane vesicle-mediated bacterial communication [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2017 Abstract The classical quorum-sensing (QS) model is based on the assumption that diffusible signaling molecules accumulate in the culture medium until they reach a critical concentration upon which expression of target genes is triggered.

Increased variability of microbial communities in restored salt marshes nearly 30 years after tidal flow restoration [PDF]
, 2012 We analyzed microbial diversity and community composition from four salt marsh sites that were impounded for 40–50 years and subsequently restored and four unimpounded sites in southeastern Connecticut over one growing season.
