Recruitment and training of alveolar macrophages after pneumococcal pneumonia

JCI Insight, 2022
Recovery from pneumococcal pneumonia remodels the pool of alveolar macrophages so that they exhibit new surface marker profiles, transcriptomes, metabolomes, and responses to infection.

The Role of Neutrophils and Neutrophil Elastase in Pneumococcal Pneumonia

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Streptococcus pneumoniae, also known as pneumococcus, is a Gram-positive diplococcus and a major human pathogen. This bacterium is a leading cause of bacterial pneumonia, otitis media, meningitis, and septicemia, and is a major cause of morbidity and ...

Systematic review on the impact of the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine ten valent (PCV10) or thirteen valent (PCV13) on all-cause, radiologically confirmed and severe pneumonia hospitalisation rates and pneumonia mortality in children 0-9 years old

Journal of Global Health, 2023
Background There is an ongoing need to assess the impact of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) to guide the use of these potentially valuable but under-utilized vaccines against pneumonia, which is one of the most common causes of post-neonatal ...

Assessment of an Antibody-in-Lymphocyte Supernatant Assay for the Etiological Diagnosis of Pneumococcal Pneumonia in Children

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
New diagnostic tests for the etiology of childhood pneumonia are needed. We evaluated the antibody-in-lymphocyte supernatant (ALS) assay to detect immunoglobulin (Ig) G secretion from ex vivo peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) culture, as a ...

The potential role of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in reducing acute respiratory inflammation in community-acquired pneumococcal pneumonia

Journal of Biomedical Science, 2020
Background Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) reduces both invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) and other pneumococcal infections worldwide. We investigated the impact of stepwise implementation of childhood PCV programs on the prevalence of ...

Use of procalcitonin and C-reactive protein to evaluate vaccine efficacy against pneumonia. [PDF]

PLoS Medicine, 2005
Pneumonia remains the leading cause of death in young children. The poor specificity of chest radiographs (CXRs) to diagnose pneumococcal pneumonia may underestimate the efficacy of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in preventing pneumococcal pneumonia.The ...
