pneumoniae strains with intermediate susceptibility to penicillin according to the conventional definition respond well to treatment with adequate doses of beta-lactam antibiotics. All studies currently available comparing mortality between patients with pneumonia caused by nonsusceptible and susceptible ...
for adults with penicillin-sensitive S pneumoniae infection (MIC ≤ 0.06 μg/mL), intravenous penicillin G or ampicillin is first-line therapy; for penicillin-resistant pneumococcus (MIC ≥0.12 μg/mL), treatment with a third-generation cephalosporin (if ceftriaxone or cefotaxime MIC < 1 μg/mL...
Background Canada conducts surveillance of antimicrobial susceptibilities in Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains to support development of treatment guidelines. Methods N gonorrhoeae strains were isolated or collected by Canadian provincial public health and reference laboratories. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs)...

Previous antibiotic treatment or S. pneumoniae nasopharyngeal colonization did not affect PpmA antigenuria. Results also demonstrated the presence of PpmA cross-reactive epitopes in commensal bacteria that co-colonize the nasopharyngeal niche, although the non-pneumococcal cross-reactive protein(s) did not...
