Effect of prior antiplatelet therapy on major adverse cardiac events in patients diagnosed with infective endocarditis: Population-based retrospective cohort study

Journal of Medical Sciences, 2019
Background: Infective endocarditis (IE) occurs with an incidence of about 3–10 per 100,000 person-years globally. Those with infective endocarditis complicated embolic events have worse outcomes.

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,

Aortic root abscess from Enterococcus faecalis infective endocarditis: Case report and brief review of the literature

Radiology Case Reports, 2022
Infective endocarditis is a life-threatening disease that is associated with a significant risk of morbidity and mortality. One of the most serious complications of infective endocarditis is perivalvular and aortic root abscess formation. Due to the high

Evidence for a Role of Extraintestinal Pathogenic Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis and Streptococcus gallolyticus in the Aetiology of Exudative Cloacitis in the Critically Endangered Kākāpō (Strigops habroptilus)

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The kākāpō is a critically endangered flightless parrot which suffers from exudative cloacitis, a debilitating disease resulting in inflammation of the vent margin or cloaca. Despite this disease emerging over 20 years ago, the cause of exudative cloacitis remains elusive.

Staphylococcus aureus COL: An Atypical Model Strain of MRSA That Exhibits Slow Growth and Antibiotic Tolerance due to a Mutation in PRPP Synthetase

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
COL is an unusual “model” strain of Staphylococcus aureus that exhibits slow growth and multidrug antibiotic tolerance. This phenotype is primarily due to a mutation in Prs, which synthesizes the core metabolite phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate (PRPP). Introduction of the COL Prs allele into the antibiotic‐susceptible strain Newman confers tolerance, while
