Inflammation induced by influenza virus impairs human innate immune control of pneumococcus [PDF]
Colonization of the upper respiratory tract by pneumococcus is important both as a determinant of disease and for transmission into the population. The immunological mechanisms that contain pneumococcus during colonization are well studied in mice but ...

Increased Resistance in the Pneumococcus
New England Journal of Medicine, 1971Microbiologists who are interested in antimicrobial agents and physicians who are called upon to treat patients with bacterial infections have become accustomed to expect resistance to develop or emerge against any newly introduced, highly active and useful antibiotic.

Penicillin-resistant pneumococcus
Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1988Penicillin resistant pneumococci are now described world wide, with increasing recognition of the clinical implications of infection with these strains and the laboratory methods required for their identification. In presenting such a case, we suggest thatin vitro sensitivity testing with oxacillin discs affords the best method for detection of ...

A penicillin-resistant pneumococcus
The Journal of Pediatrics, 1978STREPTOCOCCUS PNEUMONIAE has been almost uniformly sensitive to pen!cillin, With minimum inhibitory concentrations of 0.05 Fg/m 1 or less. In 1967, the first pariially resistant strain with an MIC of 0.6/~g/ml, was reported from Sydney, Australia. Since then there have been reports of pneumococci having increased resistance to penicillin, with MICs ...

RECURRENCES IN PNEUMOCOCCUS PNEUMONIA
The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1934A survey of the literature has failed to reveal any considerable body of data from which one may draw any conclusions regarding the actual immunity against reinfection that is conferred upon an individual as a result of an attack of pneumonia. It is of interest, therefore, to review certain features of a series of 57 cases with repeated attacks of ...

Pneumococcus Vaccine and Diabetes
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1981To the Editor.— A recent COMMENTARY by James M. Moss, MD (1980;243: 2301), has concluded that "diabetes is not a valid indication for the use of pneumococcus vaccine." I do not believe the data presented in the article are sufficient to warrant this conclusion. Some specific points made in this article deserve attention.
