概括
携带A组链球菌 (GAS) 涉及没有症状的细菌. 这项研究在急性感染和携带期间在GAS中发现了不同的基因表达模式,这表明宿主因素影响GAS持久性.
科学领域:
- 微生物学 微生物学
- 基因组学就是基因组学.
- 传染性疾病 传染性疾病
背景情况:
- 链球菌 pyogenes (A组链球菌,GAS) 携带是无症状的,但有助于传播.
- 以前的研究表明,急性感染和携带者之间的GAS之间存在潜在的遗传和表型差异.
- 缺乏关于人类GAS运输的全面基因组和转录基因组数据.
研究的目的:
- 调查急性炎和无症状运输期间GAS之间的基因组和转录组差异.
- 分析GAS喉炎的抗生素治疗前和后从个体的纵向样本.
- 直接从人类口口腔拭子中对GAS的转录概况进行表征.
主要方法:
- 选择GAS分离物的全基因组测序 (WGS).
- 用于转录概况的RNA测序 (RNA-seq).
- 来自GAS喉炎患者的纵向口腔喉拭片样本的分析.
主要成果:
- 基因组分析没有揭示一致的载体特定基因型.
- 实验室试验表明,载体和急性分离物之间在生物膜形成或抗生素敏感性方面没有显著差异.
- 转录分析在急性感染和治疗后的载体阶段之间确定了不同的GAS基因表达模式.
结论:
- 气体运输很可能受到保存的细菌特征和宿主因素的结合的影响.
- 截然不同的转录特征表明,GAS在从急性感染过渡到携带期间适应其基因表达.
- 了解这些动态对于管理GAS持久性和传播至关重要.

291
Introduction:For diagnosing acute pyelonephritis, a comprehensive patient history is collected to identify symptoms such as dysuria, frequent or urgent urination, flank pain, or costovertebral angle (CVA) tenderness that may suggest a kidney infection.Physical ExaminationDuring the physical examination, CVA tenderness is assessed. This involves gentle percussion over the costovertebral angle, where tenderness often indicates a kidney infection.Diagnostic TestsUrinalysis: Used to identify white...

Pyelonephritis is a bacterial infection that primarily affects the renal parenchyma and collecting system, including the renal pelvis, tubules, and interstitial tissue of one or both kidneys. It can be classified as either acute—a sudden, severe infection—or chronic, which refers to long-term or recurrent kidney infections.The primary cause of acute pyelonephritis (APN) is bacterial infection, with Escherichia coli accounting for approximately 70-80% of cases. Other bacteria, such...
