Association between genotypic diversity and biofilm production in group B Streptococcus [PDF]
, 2016 Background: Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is a leading cause of sepsis and meningitis and an important factor in premature and stillbirths. Biofilm production has been suggested to be important for GBS pathogenesis alongside many other elements ...

Lack of continuity between Cronobacter biotypes and species as determined using multilocus sequence typing [PDF]
, 2013 The accuracy of the Cronobacter biotyping scheme was compared with the 7-loci multilocus sequence typing scheme. Biotyping did not reliably assign species level identification, as only half (17/31) of the biotype variants were unique to any of the seven ...

Orbital Complications of Acute Rhinosinusitis in Adulthood: Predictors of Outcome and Management
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.In a multicenter cohort of 213 adults with orbital complications of acute rhinosinusitis, 68% required surgery and the modified Chandler classification was the strongest predictor of treatment modality. While abscess‐related and type II complications frequently necessitated surgical management, final ophthalmologic outcomes were uniformly favorable ...

Complement-Mediated Opsonic Activity in Normal and Infected Human Cerebrospinal Fluid: Early Response During Bacterial Meningitis [PDF]
, 2017 A local defense mechanism in bacterial meningitis was evaluated in humans by measuring complement-mediated opsonic activity (CMOA) in normal and infected cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) with a complement-dependent phagocytic bactericidal assay. CMOA was absent
