Presence of multiple bacterial markers in clinical samples might be useful for presumptive diagnosis of infection in cirrhotic patients with culture-negative reports [PDF]
Bacterial infections in cirrhotic patients with ascites are associated with a severe prognosis and an increased risk of death. The microbiological standard tests for the diagnosis of suspected infection, based on culture test of blood and ascitic fluid ...

This review highlights recent progress in nanocarriers targeting pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), including Toll‐like and NOD‐like receptors, for enhancing the treatment of bacterial sepsis and related complications. These nanomedicines deliver antibiotics and anti‐inflammatory agents while modulating immune responses.

364 NOSOCOMIAL NICU KLEBSIELLA INFECTIONS [PDF]
Previous studies have demonstrated the virulence of multiply resistent Klebsiella pneumoniae strains for newborns, but optimal management of nursery outbreaks has not been defined. We have experienced 2 outbreaks of Kanamycin resistent Klebsiella (Serotypes 60 ± 2) in which 13 infants were bacteremic and 72 infants were colonized.

A Case of Klebsiella pneumoniae infection
Introduction: In recent years, hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) has attracted increasing attention. It usually causes liver abscesses, which spread through the bloodstream to other parts such as the eyes, brain, lungs. 5.5% of all paroxysmal sympathetic hyperactivity syndrome are associated with infection, hydrocephalus, brain tumors, and ...

Sugar Functionalized Collagen Material for Local Modulation of Innate Immunity
Modulation of the innate immune response at the implant site can significantly influence adaptive immunity. A mannose‐functionalized collagen patch, termed the Local Immunotuning Patch (LIP), has been designed to engage mannose receptors on antigen‐presenting cells while exhibiting antibacterial properties. LIP orchestrates complex immune pathways that
