Glomerulonephritis in bacterial endocarditis
The American Journal of Medicine, 1984The introduction of antibiotic therapy and changing epidemiologic patterns have altered the nature of glomerulonephritis as it occurs during the course of bacterial endocarditis. Observations made predominantly in the pre-antibiotic era suggested that infections with less virulent organisms, by virtue of their indolent subacute course, favored an ...

Bacterial endocarditis in cirrhosis
Digestive Diseases and Sciences, 1981The frequency of bacterial endocarditis at autopsy in cirrhotic and noncirrhotic patients was examined. A total of 2352 autopsies were performed during a 30-year period during which bacterial endocarditis (BE) was found in 14 patients (0.59%), and cirrhosis was present in 342 patients (14.5%).

Subacute bacterial endocarditis
The American Journal of Medicine, 1949Abstract 1.1. In the year 1946 ten patients with subacute bacterial endocarditis due to nonhemolytic streptococcus were admitted to this hospital. All have achieved cures with the use of penicillin. 2.2. Five of the ten patients had had recent dental work prior to onset of the illness which probably precipitated the infection. 3.3.

Aortitis and Bacterial Endocarditis
Vascular, 2008Aortitis is an inflammatory condition that can be due to numerous causes. It is a diagnostic quandary because it commonly shows similar clinical, pathologic, and aortographic features independently of the etiology. A case of aortitis, possibly secondary to bacterial endocarditis, initially misdiagnosed as an atherosclerotic aortic ulcer and managed ...

Sequelae of bacterial endocarditis
The American Journal of Medicine, 1962Abstract All cases of bacterial endocarditis confirmed or diagnosed at autopsy in the Philadelphia General Hospital during two periods were studied. Each period included approximately 10,000 consecutive autopsies. They were designated period I, the pre-antibiotic era, and period II, the antibiotic era.

Echocardiography in Bacterial Endocarditis
New England Journal of Medicine, 1976We examined 129 standard M-mode echocardiograms obtained in 65 patients (16 to 73 years old) with bacterial endocarditis. Twenty of the 22 patients with vegetations recognizable by echocargiography died, or underwent cardiac operation (mean interval from admission 22 days, and range two to 120 days).

Mimics of bacterial endocarditis
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1970Abstract Four patients with conditions that mimicked active bacterial endocarditis of the mitral valve are described. The cases were obtained from a series of 130 mitral valve operations performed at the National Heart Hospital, London, in a 3 year period. The conditions were (1) thickening of the mitral valve with degeneration of the cusps; (2) left

Bacterial endocarditis in the dog
Journal of Small Animal Practice, 1977ABSTRACTThe literature on bacterial endocarditis is reviewed. The condition is illustrated by three cases in which the findings on clinical, radiological, electrocardiographical, bacteriological and post‐mortem examinations are described. In one case a 2‐year‐old Boxer, the causal organism was an atypical Corynebacterium and in another, a 6‐year‐old ...

Prevention of Bacterial Endocarditis
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1990Bacterial endocarditis continues to cause high morbidity and mortality and often occurs in the setting of structural abnormalities of the cardiovascular system. Alterations of the normal heart valvular function increase the risk for that valve to become the site of a bacterial nidus.

The Management of Bacterial Endocarditis
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1960This is a summary of experiences we have had at The Johns Hopkins Hospital since 1945 in the management of patients with bacterial endocarditis; these experiences are viewed against a background of the observations of others. 1-8 Like these others, we are grateful that an infection with a spontaneous recovery rate of only 3% can now be eradicated in ...
