Resistance to Infection with Nocardia asteroides
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1975Mechanisms of host resistance to Nocardia asteroides were studied in mice. Two to six weeks after intraperitoneal or intravenous immunization with viable N. asteroides, mice were significantly resistant to intraperitoneal challenge with LD50-100 of N.

Systemic Nocardia caviae Infection
Chest, 1974Nocardia caviae has been implicated as a cause of actinomycotic mycetoma in man. To date, this is the only form of nocardiosis with which this species has been associated. The two fatal infections described in this report are the first known cases of systemic nocardiosis in man caused by N caviae.

Disseminated Nocardia brasiliensis Infection
Archives of Dermatology, 1976We report a 40-year-old man with advanced Hodgkin disease who received combination chemotherapy and developed disseminated Nocardia brasiliensis infection. We discuss opportunistic infections in the compromised host, with particular reference to nocardial disease and certain biologic characteristics of that organism.

Current treatment for nocardia infections
Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2013Nocardiosis is an infectious actinomycetic disease with a variable clinical spectrum that makes it difficult to diagnose. It mainly affects immunosuppressed individuals. Advances in molecular genomic technology have helped in identifying new pathogenic Nocardia species.

Disseminated Nocardia caviae infection
The American Journal of Medicine, 1977Disseminated Nocardia caviae infection occurs only rarely. To date, two cases have been recorded in the literature. We describe a third case of systemic N. caviae infection in a compromised host and compare it with the first two cases. Postmortem, microbiologic and antibiotic sensitivity data are included.

Disseminated Nocardia brasiliensis Infection
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1973By far the most common clinical manifestation of Nocardia brasiliensis infection is mycetoma, a chronic localized infection of the subcutaneous tissue. 1-3 Although extension of the mycetoma to contiguous tissues may occur, dissemination to distant sites is extremely rare.

Disseminated Nocardia nova Infection
Southern Medical Journal, 2010We report the case of a 61-year-old female with ulcerative colitis on therapy with prednisone and azathioprine. The patient presented with fever, dry cough, a swollen lower extremity, and nodules on the right wrist and the scalp. Computed tomography scans of the head, chest, abdomen, and pelvis revealed multiple lesions.

Pulmonary Nocardia nova infection
European Journal of Internal Medicine, 2007A 61-year-old male with diabetes mellitus, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma after chemotherapy, and chronic adrenal replacement therapy presented with a persistent cough of 3-month duration. Chest CT revealed paramediastinal infiltrates. Weakly acid-fast bacilli were detected in sputum, and treatment with ethambutol, rifampin, and clarithromycin was given for ...
