Mycoplasma pneumoniae Clinical Manifestations, Microbiology, and Immunology
Mycoplasma pneumoniae (Mp) is a major human pathogen that causes both upper and lower respiratory infections, and is one of the leading causes of community acquired pneumonia (CAP), accounting for 11–15% of CAP throughout the world. Additionally it is known to induce an inflammatory process which depends on several mechanisms such as virulence of Mp (lipoproteins, community acquired respiratory distress syndrome (CARDS) toxin, oxidative products) and host defenses (cellular immunity and humoral immunity). Although it is a common pathogen, the pathogenesis for Mp infections is not yet fully understood. From the clinical point of view, since the pioneer studies in the 1960s and 1970s on the ...
Infection Prevention and Control Guide for Health Care Professionals
"This book seeks to provide a ready reference to health care professionals on how to enhance their infection control practice. Contained within the book is an introduction to infections including healthcare-associated infections and multidrug-resistant organisms, how they are transmitted, methods to control the spread, epidemiology, surveillance, antimicrobial resistance, antimicrobial stewardship, standard precautions, transmission-based precautions, asepsis, the environment of care, decontamination and equipment reprocessing."--Page 4 of cover
Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19): Pathophysiology, Epidemiology, Clinical Management and Public Health Response (volume I.C)
Volume I.C An outbreak of a respiratory disease first reported in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and the causative agent was discovered in January 2020 to be a novel betacoronovirus of the same subgenus as SARS-CoV and named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has rapidly disseminated worldwide, with clinical manifestations ranging from mild respiratory symptoms to severe pneumonia and a fatality rate estimated around 2%. Person to person transmission is occurring both in the community and healthcare settings. The World Health Organization (WHO) has recently declared the COVID-19 epidemic a public health emergency of international ...
Immunity and Tolerance
The 78th Symposium volume covers many aspects of the immune system including the genetics, biochemistry, molecular and cell biology, and developmental biology of immune responses. New approaches intended to harness the immune system to treat disease, particularly cancer, are also discussed. The volume's broad synthesis of the current knowledge about immunity and tolerance includes molecular mechanisms of B and T lymphocyte development from the single cell to the entire organism and from single genes to genomes. There is a focus on the development and function of innate cells, including myeloid cells, natural killer cells, and a more recently defined innate lymphoid cell that resembles a T ce...
