These patients may be more susceptible to bacterial infection of the lungs because of impaired host defenses associated with the disease itself (immune system alterations and organ damage) and the effects on the immune response to bacteria of concomitant immunosuppressive therapy. Cigarette smoking ...
1) Lung bacterial infections 肺部细菌感染例句>> 2) pulmonary fungal infection 肺部真菌感染 1. Objectives To analyze the risk factors of pulmonary fungal infection in patients treated in pediatric intensive care unit(PICU), and discuss the strategy of the prevention and treatment to the disease. ...
infections that may not be clinically relevant can be quite serious in conditions associated with immune suppression. During the past 60 years, since the introduction of thepenicillins, much has been learned aboutdrug resistance,bacterial virulence, and the treatment of infections. Sequencing ofbacteri...
which is one of the most common pathogens and causes acute and chronic respiratory infections. Using cytometry by time of flight (CyTOF) to characterize the immune cell status of chronically infected lung tissues, we identified

Yet normal humans rarely develop pulmonary infections and most hospitalized patients do not develop nosocomial pneumonia because highly effec- tive host defenses have evolved to protect the lungs from these ubiquitous microbial challenges. The initial defense of the lungs against the entry of par- ...
which lends inherent resistance to β-lactam class antibiotics that inhibit cell wall synthesis9,10. In addition, in recent years there has been a notable increase in the proportion ofMycoplasmaisolates resistant to macrolide-class antibiotics, a frequent treatment option forMycoplasmainfections11,12. ...
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a frequent, often progressive, chronic disease of the lungs. Patients with COPD often have impaired immunity; therefore, they are prone to chest infections, such as pneumonia or bronchitis. Acute exacerbations of COPD are major events that accelerate ...
intestinal tract or urinary tract enters the bloodstream and attaches to the heart. People with preexisting heart conditions tend to be most at risk for developing the infections because their heart lining tends to be rougher, making it easier for bacteria to stick. Bacterial endocarditis can lead...
Bacterial infections in the lungs of patients with systemic autoimmune diseases - ScienceDirect In patients with systemic autoimmune diseases (such as systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic sclerosis, Sjogren syndrome, polymyositis/dermatomyositis, and antineutrophil cytoplasmatic autoantibody...
