    Sammanfattning : Pneumococcal resistance to antibiotics has become a worldwide problem. The rapid increase in frequency seems to be caused by intercontinental spread of a few resistant clones. Resistance to antibiotics in pneumococci has reduced the therapeutic arsenal for common respiratory tract infections as well as for invasive infections. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Pulmonary deterioration has remained the major cause of mortality in cystic fibrosis (C17) patients despite the considerable improvement of their survival due to more efficient therapy and centralised care. The progression of the CF lung disease is correlated to inflection with a limited number of colonising bacterial species. LÄS MER
