Global Burden of Human Mycetoma: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis [PDF]
, 2013 Mycetoma is a chronic infectious disease of the subcutaneous tissue with a high morbidity. This disease has been reported from countries between 30°N and 15°S since 1840 but the exact burden of disease is not known.

A Comparison of Nocardia asteroides and Nocardia brasiliensis [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1959 SUMMARY: A description of Nocardia asteroides (Eppinger) Blanchard, based on the examination of 98 strains, is presented and compared with a description of N. brasiliensis (Lindenberg) Castellani and Chalmers, based on 50 strains. Characteristics common to freshly isolated strains, variants of the same strain, and old stock strains are used in the ...

<i>Nocardia</i> Infection Presented as Intramuscular Abscess in a Kidney Transplant Recipient: Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]
Case Rep NephrolBackground Nocardia is a gram‐positive bacterium capable of causing both local and systemic infections, typically in immunocompromised patients. The most common clinical presentation is pulmonary infection. Muscle abscess due to Nocardia infection without disseminated nocardiosis is rare.

Nocardia asteroides and Nocardia brasiliensis infections in mice [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1976 A model for Nocardia asteroides and Nocardia brasiliensis infections in Swiss white mice has been established without the addition to the inocula of any form of adjuvant. Serial histopathological studies revealed that these two actinomycetes cause lesions that are quite different in their features. An acute suppurative abscess characterizes the lesions

Inactivation of rifampin by Nocardia brasiliensis [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1993 Rifampin was glycosylated by a pathogenic species of Nocardia, i.e., Nocardia brasiliensis. The structures of two glycosylated compounds (RIP-1 and RIP-2) isolated from the culture broth of the bacterium were determined to be 3-formyl-23-(O-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl])rifamycin SV and 23-(O-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl])rifampin, respectively.

Antifungal Activity of Natural Naphthoquinones and Anthraquinones against Madurella mycetomatis
Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 20, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023 Abstract Eumycetoma, the fungal form of the neglected tropical disease mycetoma, is a crippling infectious disease with low response rates to currently available antifungal drugs. In this study, a series of natural naphthoquinones and anthraquinones was evaluated for their activity against Madurella mycetomatis, which is the most common causative agent

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 11, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023 We report a complex infection of Nocardiosis and C. difficile colitis that developed in a patient with ulcerative colitis in the setting of chronic immunosuppression and malnutrition. Key Clinical Message Immunosuppression, malnutrition, and underlying infection can unmask obscure infections which can be challenging to identify.

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 4, Page 778-783, April 2023., 2023 A standardized, MALDI‐TOF based, commercial method for the rapid identification of Nocardia and non‐tuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) isolates has been evaluated. The method allowed 95.6% and 90.6% correct species‐level identification for Nocardia and NTM, respectively.
