Recently more and more cases of viral community-acquired pneumonia have been recorded. Laboratory markers (C-reactive protein, procalcitonin) can help diagnose this disease and determine its prognosis.

Deoxyribonucleases of Pneumococcus
Abstract Two enzymes with deoxyribonuclease activity were isolated from Pneumococcus. One of these, an endonuclease active on both native and denatured deoxyribonucleic acid, produced 5'-phosphate-terminated fragments which, even after extensive degradation, were larger than mononucleotides.

Streptococcus pneumoniae has more than 95 serotypes, each of which presumably can cause sepsis, meningitis, pneumonia, and acute otitis media. Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV) targeted against a limited number of serotypes have nonetheless revealed ...

Nasopharyngeal colonization density of Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) is associated with disease severity and transmission. Little is known about the density of pneumococcal carriage in children with HIV (CLH).

Vaccinal Prevention of Pneumococcal Infection in Children
It is known that before vaccination had been widely introduced pneumococcal infection was the cause of death of more than 1.5 mn people around the world annually, 40% of whom were infants.

One of the features of pneumococcus which has deserved the attention of investigators is the capsule. Since Pasteur, Chamberland and Roux (1881) several functions have been ascribed to it as well as peculiar properties. In the present paper, we take into

A stochastic differential equation SIS epidemic model [PDF]
In this paper we extend the classical susceptible-infected-susceptible epidemic model from a deterministic framework to a stochastic one and formulate it as a stochastic differential equation (SDE) for the number of infectious individuals $I(t)$. We then
