Disease relevance of Bacteremia

 

Psychiatry related information on Bacteremia

  • Using LR, the following were found to be highly associated with VRE bacteremia: history of AIDS, positive HIV status, or drug abuse (OR 9.58); prior exposure with parenteral vancomycin (OR 8.37); and liver transplant history (OR 6. 75) [5].

Chemical compound and disease context of Bacteremia

  • Taken together, these findings are consistent with activation of C3 and the terminal complement sequence, C5-C9, occurring primarily by the properdin pathway, in patients with gram-negative bacteremia eventuating in shock [11].
  • We conclude that the combination of vancomycin, ticarcillin, and amikacin is more effective than ticarcillin-clavulanate and amikacin as empirical antibiotic therapy in clinical settings in which gram-positive bacteremias are a serious problem [7].
  • Mean levels of the classical components C1, C4, and C2 in bacteremic patients in whom shock subsequently developed did not differ significantly (p greater than 0.05) from those of patients with uncomplicated bacteremia [11].
  • In studying the role of glucan as a mediator of antibacterial activity, we attempted to ascertain the ability of glucan to modify the mortality of mice with experimentally induced Gram-positive bacteremia, and to enhance antibacterial defenses in rats as denoted by serum lysozyme and phagocytic activity [12].
  • Bacteremia developed in both patients and they recovered only after the cessation of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole administration and institution of therapy with penicillin G potassium or vancomycin hydrochloride plus streptomycin sulfate [13].
  • HVISA bacteremia was significantly associated with prolonged bacteremia duration, greater rates of complications, and emergence of rifampin resistance, compared with MRSA bacteremia [14].
