A history of Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL)-associated infection protects against death in PVL-associated pneumonia

Vaccine, 2011
Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL) is a Staphylococcus aureus toxin associated with skin and soft-tissue infections (SSTIs) and life-threatening necrotizing pneumonia in humans. Recent reports have demonstrated that neutralizing antibody to PVL is not protective against SSTI recurrence, thus raising a controversy about the expected clinical benefits ...

Proliferative Verrucous Leukoplakia (PVL)

Advances in Anatomic Pathology, 2013
Proliferative verrucous leukoplakia (PVL) is a rare less recognized form of oral leukoplakia. Patients with this condition represent a unique clinically and pathologically progressive characteristic from conventional leukoplakia.

The levels of antibodies to Panton–Valentine leukocidin (PVL) vary with PVL prevalence along a north-to-south gradient

European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 2015
Recent research on Staphylococcus aureus vaccine development has focused on active immunization against Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL), a potent leukotoxin associated with both superficial and severe deep-seated infections. PVL prevalence is highly variable worldwide, but it is unknown to what extent immunity to PVL varies between patients from ...

Transcatheter Closure of Mitral Paravalvular Leakage (PVL)

2021
Mitral paravalvular leakage is more frequent than aortic valve. Patient’s symptoms are dependent of the size of the defect and the severity of regurgitation. In severe type, they usually are symptomatic and finally leads to biventricular failure. The recommended treatment is surgical repair but in those with prohibited surgical risk, trans-catheter ...
