Peptidoglycan from Immunobiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus Improves Resistance of Infant Mice to Respiratory Syncytial Viral Infection and Secondary Pneumococcal Pneumonia

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
Several research works have demonstrated that beneficial microbes with the capacity to modulate the mucosal immune system (immunobiotics) are an interesting alternative to improve the outcome of bacterial and viral respiratory infections.

Vaccination Recommendations in Patients With Atopic Dermatitis Treated With JAK Inhibitors

International Journal of Dermatology, Volume 65, Issue 2, Page 230-237, February 2026.
Inmunization and Screening Protocol for the Safe Initiation of JAK Inhibitors. ABSTRACT Atopic dermatitis therapy has undergone a revolutionary change with the introduction of Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors. Despite their general safety profile, these immunomodulatory drugs require special precautions with respect to infection risk and vaccine ...

Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis Complicated by Invasive Streptococcus pneumoniae Infection Requiring Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: A Case Report

Acute Medicine &Surgery, Volume 13, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
A rare case of autoimmune pulmonary alveolar proteinosis complicated by invasive Streptococcus pneumoniae infection was successfully managed with veno‐venous ECMO. ECMO enabled timely whole lung lavage during recovery from septic shock, which yielded atypical yellowish‐brown fluid likely reflecting infection and led to clinical improvement.

Streptococcus pneumoniae HtrA is a dynamic and monomeric virulence factor capable of forming larger oligomeric complexes

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract High‐temperature requirement A (HtrA) proteases are a conserved family of serine proteases central to protein quality control and bacterial virulence. While Gram‐negative and human HtrAs are structurally well studied, Gram‐positive homologs remain essentially uncharacterized.

Reconsidering the Role of Blood Cultures in Community‐Acquired Pneumonia: A Case of Co‐Infection With Streptococcus pneumoniae and Klebsiella variicola

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
We report a case of community‐acquired pneumonia. In this case, the blood culture was essential for detection of co‐infection of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Klebsiella variicola, which combination is first reported. ABSTRACT Community‐acquired pneumonia (CAP) remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality.

Burden of Severe Pneumonia, Pneumococcal Pneumonia and Pneumonia Deaths in Indian States: Modelling Based Estimates.

PLoS ONE, 2015
The burden of severe pneumonia in terms of morbidity and mortality is unknown in India especially at sub-national level. In this context, we aimed to estimate the number of severe pneumonia episodes, pneumococcal pneumonia episodes and pneumonia deaths ...
