OBJECTIVE To study the changes in the epidemiology of bacterial meningitis in the era of the Hemophilus influenzae (H. influenzae) type b vaccine and pneumoccous resistance. METHODS Retrospective study which included patients admitted to Hamad Medical Corporation, Doha, Qatar between January 1998 through to December 2000 with positive cerebrospinal fluid culture. RESULTS Thirty-seven patien...
Although systemic infections caused by Haemophilus influenzae type b occur worldwide, detailed epidemiologic data are available in but a few countries. The public health impact of morbidity, mortality, and serious sequelae from disease caused by H influenzae type b has stimulated the search for control strategies. In the United States now, active immunoprophylaxis is largely favored over treatm...
Polysaccharide-protein conjugates as vaccines have proven to be very effective in preventing Haemophilus influenzae type b infections in industrialized countries. However, cost-effective technologies need to be developed for increasing the availability of anti-H. influenzae type b vaccines in countries from the developing world. Consequently, vaccine production with partially synthetic antigens...
BACKGROUND The presence of Haemophilus influenzae in the oropharynx is correlated with the subsequent development of chest infection. The importance of colonisation of the trachea by bacteria at the time of surgery is uncertain. This study investigated the tracheal flora at the time of intubation in 24 patients undergoing elective upper abdominal surgery. METHODS The bacterial flora of the tr...
Susceptibility testing of Haemophilus influenzae to the macrolide compounds has often been problematic. This is as a result of the inability of many isolates of H. influenzae to grow without the addition of 5% CO2 to the incubation atmosphere and the subsequent detrimental effect that CO2 has on the activity of the macrolide group of compounds. This report describes refinements and recommendati...
A PCR for protein D (hpd#3) was used to differentiate nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHI) from Haemophilus haemolyticus. While 90% of nasopharyngeal specimens and 100% of lower-airway specimens from 84 Indigenous Australian children with bronchiectasis had phenotypic NTHI isolates confirmed as H. influenzae, only 39% of oropharyngeal specimens with phenotypic NTHI had H. influenzae. The n...
Haemophilus influenzae is an important human pathogen. A number of complete genome sequences of various haemophili are available; however, functional studies have been limited by the lack of an effective shuttle vector which functions in all strains. Here, we have constructed a shuttle vector, pEJ6, which transfers genes between Escherichia coli and H. influenzae and H. parainfluenzae. The vect...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Surveillance data of colonization by Haemophilus influenzae in Taiwan are lacking. This study aimed to define the nasopharyngeal carriage rate of H. influenzae among children younger than 5 years in northern Taiwan, and to determine the antibiotic susceptibility, serotype and the clonal relationship of these isolates. METHODS Nasopharyngeal specimens were obtained from ...
For a seven year period (1985-91) clinical and epidemiological data were prospectively collected on children aged < 10 years with microbiologically confirmed invasive Haemophilus influenzae type b infection in the Oxford region to study the epidemiology of the disease and determine the potential impact of early primary immunisation in infants. Computer records of primary immunisations given to ...
In this study we have investigated the ability of nonencapsulated, nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae, NT477 to survive in the J774 mouse macrophage-like cell line. Viable, intracellular nontypeable H. influenzae could still be recovered from macrophages 72 h after phagocytosis. In contrast, H. influenzae strain Rd, an avirulent, nonencapsulated variant of a serotype d strain, was killed within...
