We present two cases of pulmonary aspergillosis in which calcium oxalate crystals the sputum proved to be a useful diagnostic clue. In case 1, Aspergillus hyphae was not identified; however, were present, and chronic necrotizing diagnosed. 2, detected fumigatus identified later. Thus, presence may an important indicator for A. infection.

Streptococcus pneumoniae may colonize the nasopharynx, and as pneumococcal colonization causes invasive diseases subsequent transmission, reducing bacterial burden in nasal cavity is critical. Hochu-ekki-to (TJ-41) a traditional Japanese herbal medicine that exerts immunomodulatory effects host cells. In this study, we investigated potency of TJ-41 regulating clearance by activating immunity. Pneumococci were intranasally inoculated to mice, which then orally administered TJ-41. During...

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has imposed a considerable burden on hospitals and healthcare workers (HCWs) worldwide, increasing the risk of outbreaks nosocomial transmission to 'non-COVID-19' patients, who represent highest-risk population in terms mortality, HCWs. Since HCWs are at interface between one hand community other, they potential reservoirs, carriers, or victims severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 cross-transmission. In addition, there been paradigm shift...

Hypervirulent hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae strains have emerged as clinically important pathogens causing invasive infections. K. osteomyelitis is uncommon in adult patients, and may mimic bone tumors on presentation. We report a patient with left rectus femoris muscle abscess acute of the femur due to negative blood culture, who was initially thought thigh tumor. The patient's infection resolved surgical drainage debridement intravenous antibiotic therapy.
