Discospondylitis as a consequence of jugular vein septic thrombophlebitis in a Standardbred gelding

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary This report describes the identification of C7‐T1 discospondylitis on myelography and confirmed on postmortem computed tomography and necropsy in a 4‐year‐old Standardbred gelding as the consequence of jugular vein catheterisation and secondary septic thrombophlebitis. Staphylococcus aureus was isolated from both sites.

Bilateral endogenous endophthalmitis associated with infective endocarditis: case report

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases
Bilateral endogenous endophthalmitis is a rare condition initiated by infection by microbes in the bloodstream, such as those arising from a foci of infective endocarditis. We report a case and discuss the diagnostic aspects and the clinical outcome of a

Post-mortem findings in Staphylococcus aureus acute infective endocarditis

Autopsy and Case Reports, 2021
Infective endocarditis (IE) is a microbial infection of the heart valves or the mural endocardium that leads to the formation of vegetations composed of thrombotic debris and microorganisms often associated with the destruction of the cardiac tissues ...

Influence of nanohydroxyapatite mouthwash on the growth of Candida albicans biofilm on milled denture surfaces: An in vitro study

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose There is a need for effective solutions for the persistent prevalence of denture stomatitis (DS) in denture‐wearing populations. This study assessed the impact of nanohydroxyapatite (nanoHAP) nanoparticles on Candida albicans biofilm formation on milled polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) denture bases.

Bacterial evolution and the Bak-Sneppen model [PDF]

arXiv, 2001
Recently, Lenski et al \cite{Elena,Lenski,Travisano} have carried out several experiments on bacterial evolution. Their findings support the theory of punctuated equilibrium in biological evolution. They have further quantified the relative contributions of adaptation, chance and history to bacterial evolution.

Steroid‐responsive generalised sterile necrotising pyogranulomatous lymphadenitis in a cat

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
A 1.5‐year‐old neutered male cat was presented with fever, inappetence, lethargy and marked generalised lymphadenopathy of 4 days duration. Excisional biopsy of peripheral lymph nodes revealed necrotising pyogranulomatous lymphadenitis. Extensive investigation failed to identify an underlying infectious [bacterial (Bartonella, Mycobacteria, Mycoplasma,

Analysis of bacterial population growth using extended logistic growth model with distributed delay [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
In the present work, we develop a delayed Logistic growth model to study the effects of decontamination on the bacterial population in the ambient environment. Using the linear stability analysis, we study different case scenarios, where bacterial population may establish at the positive equilibrium or go extinct due to increased decontamination.
