Host factors and genetic susceptibility to infections due to intracellular bacteria and fastidious organisms [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2014 While genetic polymorphisms play a paramount role in tuberculosis (TB), less is known about their contribution to the severity of diseases caused by other intracellular bacteria and fastidious microorganisms. We searched electronic databases for observational studies reporting on host factors and genetic predisposition to infections caused by ...

High Prevalence of Fastidious Bacteria in 1520 Cases of Uveitis of Unknown Etiology
Medicine, 2008 The etiologic evaluation of uveitis is frequently unsuccessful when noninvasive methods are used. We conducted a prospective study to evaluate systematic screening for pathogens of uveitis. All patients with uveitis referred to the participating tertiary ophthalmology departments from January 2001 to September 2007 underwent intraocular and serum ...

Detection of Selected Fastidious Bacteria [PDF]
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2000 The intent of this article is to describe the optimal methods for culture recovery of 7 fastidious bacteria: Legionella species, Brucella species, Francisella tularensis, Leptospira species, Borrelia burgdorferi, Bartonella species, and Bordetella species. These organisms share much in common beyond the fact that their genus names all end in the letter

Endocarditis Due to Rare and Fastidious Bacteria [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2001 SUMMARY The etiologic diagnosis of infective endocarditis is easily made in the presence of continuous bacteremia with gram-positive cocci. However, the blood culture may contain a bacterium rarely associated with endocarditis, such as Lactobacillus spp., Klebsiella spp., or nontoxigenic Corynebacterium, Salmonella, Gemella ...

Quantifying biosynthetic network robustness across the human oral microbiome [PDF]
, 2018 Metabolic interactions, such as cross-feeding, play a prominent role in microbial communitystructure. For example, they may underlie the ubiquity of uncultivated microorganisms.

Metabolic network percolation quantifies biosynthetic capabilities across the human oral microbiome [PDF]
, 2019 The biosynthetic capabilities of microbes underlie their growth and interactions, playing a prominent role in microbial community structure. For large, diverse microbial communities, prediction of these capabilities is limited by uncertainty about ...
