Epidemiology of Haemophilus ducreyi Infections [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2016
The global epidemiology of Haemophilus ducreyi infections is poorly documented because of difficulties in confirming microbiological diagnoses. We evaluated published data on the proportion of genital and nongenital skin ulcers caused by H.

Haemophilus influenzaeInfections [PDF]

open access: greenHospital Practice, 1983
Of the six typeable strains of this organism, type b is the most virulent, accounting for 95% of serious infections in children. Unexpectedly, in adults, nearly two thirds of isolates from blood and CSF were found to be nontypeable. The spectrum of clinical disease associated with type b and nontypeable strains is discussed.

Neonatal Haemophilus influenzae infections. [PDF]

open access: bronzeArchives of Disease in Childhood, 1991
Nine cases of neonatal Haemophilus influenzae septicaemia were recorded in Finland during 1985-9; incidence was 2.8/100,000 live births, and 1.6% of all cases of neonatal septicaemia. The onset of the disease was early in all cases, ranging from 0-6 hours after delivery. Seven of the infants were preterm and three died (overall mortality 33%).

Urethral infection with Haemophilus ducreyi in Men

open access: bronzeSexually Transmitted Diseases, 1988
Carriage of Haemophilus ducreyi has not been adequately investigated in men, and its role in urethritis is unknown. In this study 456 men with H. ducreyi-culture positive genital ulcers were investigated. Among these men, 16 (3.5%) had urethritis. H. ducreyi was isolated from the urethra of nine men (1.9%).

Swine model of Haemophilus ducreyi infection [PDF]

open access: bronzeInfection and Immunity, 1995
Haemophilus ducreyi is a strict human pathogen that causes sexually transmitted genital ulcer disease. We infected domestic swine with H. ducreyi 35000, resulting in the development of cutaneous ulcers histologically resembling human chancroid lesions. Intraepidermal lesions progressed from pustules to ulcers containing polymorphonuclear leukocytes and

Haemophilus parainfluenzae infection of respiratory mucosa

open access: bronzeRespiratory Medicine, 2003
The pathogenicity of Haemophilus parainfluenzae (Hpi) in the respiratory tract is unclear, in contrast to the accepted pathogenicity of its close relative non-typable H. influenzae. We have investigated the interaction of two Hpi isolates with the mucosa of adenoid and bronchial tissue organ cultures.

Sir .—I recently cared for a previously healthy 13-month-old boy with meningitis due to Haemophilus influenzae . This was diagnosed by positive CSF and blood cultures obtained after 12 to 18 hours of persistent vomiting and progressively worsening lethargy.
