Coagulase-negative staphylococcus—oftentimes a virulent masquerader
The crescents were accompanied by foci of fibrinoid necrosis with endocapillary and extracapillary fibrin. Tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis were absent. Interstitial inflammation was present, focal and accompanied by tubular degenerative changes. There was evidence of necrotizing vasculitis. IF revealed granular, segmental to global glomerular capillary wall positivity for IgG, kappa a...
متن کاملCoagulase-negative strains of Staphylococcus pyogenes.
The isolation of two coagulase-negative strains of Staphylococcus pyogenes is reported, and their biochemical characteristics are given. The reliability of coagulase tests alone in the identification of Staph. pyogenes is discussed, and the deoxyribonuclease test is recommended as a useful confirmatory test.
متن کاملIsolation of rare coagulase-negative isolates in immunocompromised patients: Staphylococcus gallinarum, Staphylococcus pettenkoferi and Staphylococcus pasteuri.
Herein, we describe the isolation of Staphylococcus pasteuri, Staphylococcus pettenkoferi and Staphylococcus gallinarum and summarize the clinical characteristics of five patients. Cases were identified over a 2-year surveillance period that identified the respective strains using microbiologic and molecular methods. These data suggest that rare coagulase-negative staphylococcal infections may ...
متن کاملStaphylococcus schleiferi subsp. schleiferi expresses a fibronectin-binding protein.
Staphylococcus schleiferi subsp. schleiferi is associated with a range of nosocomial infections, but the pathogenic mechanisms by which these occur are poorly understood. This study provides phenotypic and genotypic evidence for the expression of a cell wall-anchored fibronectin-binding protein by this species.
متن کامل[Current profile of left-sided native valve endocarditis caused by coagulase-negative Staphylococcus].
Coagulase-negative staphylococci are the most frequently isolated microorganisms in early prosthetic valve endocarditis. However, they rarely cause endocarditis in native valves. The profile of patients with left-sided native valve endocarditis by coagulase-negative staphylococci is unknown, because available data are scarce and outdated. We analyzed the epidemiological, clinical, radiographic,...
