  1. 1. Staphylococcus aureus : aspects of pathogenesis and molecular epidemiology

    Författare :Lisa Stark; Per-Eric Lindgren; Sture Löfgren; Erik Kihlström; Jan Strindhall; Andreas Matussek; Johanna Ericson Sollid; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Staphylococcus aureus is a human commensal colonizing about 30 per cent of the population. Besides, it is a frequent cause of infections such as skin, wound and deep tissue infections and also more life-threatening conditions such as pneumonia, endocarditis and septicaemia. S. aureus may also cause different toxicoses. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Invasive Staphylococcus aureus infections

    Författare :Gunnar Jacobsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Staphylococcus aureus; epidemiology; risk factors; clinical presentation; mortality; recurrence; sequelae; agr; serology; colonization;

    Sammanfattning : Staphylococcus aureus is a leading cause of septicaemia-related death. The aims of this thesis were to describe the epidemiology of invasive Staphylococcus aureus infections (ISA), the clinical course, and serological response in ISA in a prospective, population-based study.

  4. 3. Molecular epidemiology of Staphylococcus epidermidis in prosthetic joint infections

    Författare :Emeli Månsson; Bo Söderquist; Martin Sundqvist; Åsa Nilsdotter-Augustinsson; Eva Särndahl; Kåre Bergh; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Staphylococcus epidermidis; molecular epidemiology; prosthetic joint infections; whole genome sequencing; Staphylococcus pettenkoferi;

    Sammanfattning : Staphylococcus epidermidis is ubiquitous in the human microbiota, but also an important pathogen in healthcare-associated infections, such as prosthetic joint infections (PJIs). In this thesis, aspects of the molecular epidemiology of S. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Staphylococcal prosthetic joint infections : similar, but still different

    Författare :Staffan Tevell; Bo Söderquist; Åsa Nilsdotter-Augustinsson; Annelies Zinkernagel; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Prosthetic joint infections; staphylococcal infections; nasal carriage; Staphylococcus aureus; Staphylococcus epidermidis; Staphylococcus capitis; NRCS-A; antibiotic resistance; heterogeneous glycopeptide resistance; whole-genome sequencing; Infektionssjukdomar; Infectious Diseases;

    Sammanfattning : Staphylococci constitute a major part of our commensal flora but are also the most common bacteria causing prosthetic joint infections (PJIs), a dreaded complication of arthroplasty surgery. However, not all staphylococci are the same. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Biologics in Staphylococcus aureus arthritis

    Författare :Abukar Ali; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Staphylococcus aureus; CTLA4-Ig; IL-1 Ra; anti-TNF therapy; mouse; septic arthritis;

    Sammanfattning : The emergence of new type of drugs known as biologics has led to rapid disease improvements in many autoimmune arthritic patients. Nevertheless, most of these biologics are immunomodulators that may consequently increase the susceptibility of patients towards infections, such as septic arthritis. LÄS MER
