| the influence of bacterial superinfection on the clinical course of influenza. studies from the influenza epidemics in stockholm during the winters 1969-70 and 1971-72. | during two epidemics of influenza a infection in stockholm 1969-72, 249 cases were selected for a study on the effect of bacterial superinfection. bacterial involvement was demonstrated through cultures and serologic reactions. the occurrence of c-reactive protein in increased amount in serum was significantly more common in the group which had the strongest indication of bacterial infection. an increased duration of fever, and a higher incidence of pneumonia, leukocytosis and erythrocyte sedime ... | 1975 | 1847 |
| antibiotic resistance in streptococcus pneumoniae, haemophilus influenzae and streptococcus pyogenes in respiratory tract infections in outpatients. | sensitivity patterns of streptococcus pneumoniae, haemophilus influenzae and streptococcus pyogenes were studied prospectively in an outpatient population seeking medical advice for respiratory tract infections (rti) in the southern parts of stockholm. in total, 3,214 nasopharyngeal and 1,907 throat swabs were cultured during january-february 1996. 32% of the patients had received antibiotics during the previous year. reduced penicillin sensitivity in s. pneumoniae was rare (1.3%) and only seen ... | 1997 | 9571734 |
| carriage of multiresistant streptococcus pneumoniae among children attending day-care centres in the stockholm area. | to determine the prevalence of the asymptomatic carriage of drug-resistant streptococcus pneumoniae (drsp) by children attending day-care centres in the stockholm area, nasopharyngeal swabs were cultured from 1129 children and 308 day-care personnel in 36 day-care centres during a 3-week period, from march to april 1995. approximately 36% of the children were asymptomatic carriers of s. pneumoniae sensitive to penicillin and other antibiotics. the highest prevalence of nasopharyngeal carriage wa ... | 1997 | 9571733 |

| clonal analysis of streptococcus pneumoniae nonsusceptible to penicillin at day-care centers with index cases, in a region with low incidence of resistance: emergence of an invasive type 35b clone among carriers. | the nasopharyngeal carriage rate of potential respiratory pathogens was studied in 36 index children with a pneumococci nonsusceptible to penicillin (pnsp), in 595 healthy children, and in 123 personnel at 16 day-care centers (dccs) with index cases in the stockholm area, an urban area with a low incidence of antibiotic resistant pneumococci, during the winter of 1997-1998. the spread and clonality of pnsp, haemophilus influenzae and moraxella catarrhalis, were studied by analyzing antibiotic su ... | 2003 | 15008138 |
