Trends in hospitalizations for vaccine‐preventable diseases in the United States from 2014 to 2024

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Vaccination rates have declined in recent years, resulting in outbreaks of vaccine‐preventable diseases (VPDs) among children. We aimed to evaluate VPD hospitalization rates from 2014 to 2024 and to report associated trends in outcomes including intensive care utilization, mortality, readmissions, and costs.

A low-cost culture- and DNA extraction-free method for the molecular detection of pneumococcal carriage in saliva

Microbiology Spectrum
Molecular methods have improved the sensitivity of the detection of pneumococcal carriage in saliva. However, they typically require sample culture enrichment and nucleic acid extraction prior to performing the detection assay and may limit scalability ...

Carriage Dynamics of Pneumococcal Serotypes in Naturally Colonized Infants in a Rural African Setting During the First Year of Life

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2021
Streptococcus pneumoniae (the pneumococcus) carriage precedes invasive disease and influences population-wide strain dynamics, but limited data exist on temporal carriage patterns of serotypes due to the prohibitive costs of longitudinal studies.

Refractory Eczema as a Presenting Feature of Common Variable Immunodeficiency

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is the most prevalent symptomatic inborn error of immunity (IEI) in adults. It presents with recurrent infections and non‐infectious complications, including autoimmunity, lymphoproliferation and dermatitis.

IMMUNOLOGICAL REACTIONS OF THE ISOLATED CARBOHYDRATE AND PROTEIN OF PNEUMOCOCCUS

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1925
The data presented in this paper clearly indicate that the isolated carbohydrate and nucleoprotein constituents of Pneumococcus differ both serologically and antigenically one from the other.

Greater Cochlear Damage in Otogenic Versus Meningogenic Meningitis: Hearing Rehabilitation Implications

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Otogenic route of meningitis was associated with greater cochlear hair cell loss in comparison with the meningogenic one in this otopathology study. Neuronal depletion has been traditionally implicated in failed hearing rehabilitation of post‐meningitis deafness.

A role of oropharyngeal microbiota in developing acute and chronic diseases of the upper respiratory tract

Инфекция и иммунитет, 2020
Currently, a rise in incidence of polyethological inflammation of the upper respiratory tract mucosa paralleled by altered resident and transient microbiota displaying in many cases increased antibiotic resistance has been noted.

THE OCCURRENCE OF PEROXIDE IN CULTURES OF PNEUMOCOCCUS

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1924
1. Conditions which favor the formation and accumulation of peroxide in broth cultures of pneumococcus are free access of air, and the absence of catalase, peroxidase, and other catalysts capable of decomposing this compound.

Non‐Cancer Causes of Death in Patients With Metastatic Hormone‐Sensitive Prostate Cancer: A Real‐World Analysis

The Prostate, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background As overall survival improves in metastatic hormone‐sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC), non‐cancer causes of death are increasingly relevant. Methods We conducted a real‐world multicenter study of patients diagnosed with mHSPC treated with ADT alone or in combination. Causes of death before progression to castration‐resistant prostate
