The Role of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria in Patients With Cystic Fibrosis Advanced Lung Disease

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Among 270 cystic fibrosis patients, 20.7% were NTM‐positive and had a lower pre‐transplant risk of death or lung transplantation but higher post‐transplant mortality, with no difference in CLAD incidence. These results suggest NTM infection should not be an absolute contraindication to lung transplantation, though careful individual risk assessment is ...

Serious Bacterial Infections in Hospitalized Neonates in Eastern Ethiopia: Investigating the Emerging Pathogen Pantoea dispersa Compared With Klebsiella pneumoniae

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Serious bacterial infections (SBIs) are major contributors to neonatal morbidity and mortality in low‐income countries. We describe the aetiology and risk factors for neonatal bacteraemia and in‐hospital mortality in eastern Ethiopia, focusing on Pantoea dispersa, a rarely studied pathogen, and Klebsiella pneumoniae.

Natural Burkholderia mallei Infection in Dromedary, Bahrain

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2011
We confirm a natural infection of dromedaries with glanders. Multilocus variable number tandem repeat analysis of a Burkholderia mallei strain isolated from a diseased dromedary in Bahrain revealed close genetic proximity to strain Dubai 7, which caused an outbreak of glanders in horses in the United Arab Emirates in 2004.

A reverse-phase protein microarray-based screen identifies host signaling dynamics upon Burkholderia spp. infection

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Burkholderia is a diverse genus of Gram-negative bacteria that cause high mortality rate in humans and cattle. The lack of effective therapeutic treatments poses serious public health threats. Insights toward host-Burkholderia spp.

First time identification of Pandoraea sputorum from a patient with cystic fibrosis in Argentina: a case report [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Pandoraea species are considered emerging pathogens in the context of cystic fibrosis (CF) and are difficult to identify by conventional biochemical methods. These multidrug resistant bacteria remain poorly understood particularly in terms of

Korat‐Scrub Typhus Score: A Clinical Tool for Predicting Scrub Typhus in Patients With Acute Undifferentiated Febrile Illness

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Scrub typhus is a major cause of acute undifferentiated febrile illness (AUFI) in the Asia–Pacific region. Nonspecific presentation, limited diagnostic accuracy and delayed treatment increase morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to develop a simple clinical score for early diagnosis in adults with AUFI. Methods A cross‐sectional

Evaluating New Compounds to Treat Burkholderia pseudomallei Infections [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018
Burkholderia pseudomallei is the causative agent of melioidosis, a disease that requires long-term treatment regimens with no assurance of bacterial clearance. Clinical isolates are intrinsically resistant to most antibiotics and in recent years, isolates have been collected that display resistance to frontline drugs.
