Suspected Macrolide‐Refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae Pneumonia With Discordant Coccidioides Serology in an Immunocompromised Host: A Case Report

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Suspected macrolide‐refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia can be a diagnostic challenge in immunocompromised hosts, particularly after allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Screening serologies may further complicate diagnosis when false‐positive or discordant results divert therapy.

Specific and cross-reacting monoclonal antibodies to Bordetella parapertussis and Bordetella bronchiseptica lipopolysaccharides [PDF]

Microbiology, 1994
Three groups of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were produced that would be useful for immunochemical typing and diagnosis of infections due to Bordetella species, and for the structural analysis of their lipopolysaccharides. PP6, a representative of the first group, recognizes an epitope shared by smooth-type Bordetella parapertussis and Bordetella ...

Severe Necrotizing Community‐Acquired Pneumonia and Bilateral Empyema in an Immunocompetent Patient due to Fusobacterium necrophorum

Case Reports in Pulmonology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Necrotizing pneumonia and empyema caused by Fusobacterium necrophorum are uncommon. The classical presentation of Lemierre′s syndrome, characterized by pharyngotonsillitis and internal jugular vein thrombosis, is not always observed, and incomplete and atypical variants can cause diagnostic uncertainty and delay in treatment.

Characterization of IS1001, an insertion sequence element of Bordetella parapertussis [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1993
By analysis of repetitive DNA in Bordetella parapertussis, an insertion sequence element, designated IS1001, was identified. Sequence analysis revealed that IS1001 comprised 1,306 bp and contained inverted repeats at its termini. Furthermore, several open reading frames that may code for transposition functions were identified. The largest open reading

Rebound of Respiratory Virus Activity and Seasonality to Pre‐Pandemic Patterns

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT The emergence of SARS‐CoV‐2 and the implementation of non‐pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) profoundly disrupted the transmission dynamics of respiratory viruses, altering their epidemiology and seasonality. However, comprehensive long‐term data on these shifts and their post‐pandemic implications remain limited.

Saliva and Anterior Nasal Samples for Detecting Respiratory Viruses in Children

APMIS, Volume 133, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT For detecting respiratory viruses, a nasopharyngeal swab sample for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays has been the benchmark. Less discomfort related to sampling is requested especially for children, and thus other sample types have been suggested.

Epidemiology and Burden of Human Metapneumovirus Among Italian Adults in Outpatient and Inpatient Settings, 2014–2025

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 19, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) has been increasingly recognized as a major contributor to respiratory infections in all age groups. Owing to its recent discovery, available data on the burden of hMPV in adults are still scant and heterogeneous.

Outer Membrane Vesicles as a Versatile Platform for Vaccine Development: Engineering Strategies, Applications and Challenges

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are nanosized vesicles naturally secreted by Gram‐negative bacteria and represent a promising platform for vaccine development. OMVs possess inherent immunostimulatory properties due to the presence of pathogen‐associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), providing self‐adjuvanting capabilities and the ability to ...
