[infectious complication after lung transplantation for cystic fibrosis].the infectious complications after lung transplantation have been studied in 26 patients suffering from mucoviscidosis who had transplants in the ile-de-france between july 1987 and october 1990. we counted 99 infections (74 bacterial infections, 23 viral infections and two fungal infections) during a cumulative observation period of 127 months. the majority of the infections (48%) were localised to the grafted lung. these infections were responsible for 61% of deaths (50% secondary to bacterial ...19957899666
microbiology of otitis media in the paris, france, area from 1987 to 1997.to investigate epidemiologic trends in the bacteriology of acute otitis media, data were recorded during a 10-year period by the same group of investigators during clinical studies in pediatric outpatients.200111419497
epidemiologic study of conjunctivitis-otitis syndrome.we conducted a prospective cross-sectional epidemiologic study of conjunctivitis-otitis syndrome during two 3-week periods of consecutive winters. a representative sample of 184 pediatricians and ear, nose and throat specialists in the paris area recruited 2901 children from 6 to 36 months of age presenting with acute otitis media, of whom 465 (16%) also had purulent conjunctivitis. in sampled children, the culture of the conjunctival exudate yielded bacterial pathogens in 419 patients: haemophi ...200516094231
[retrospective study of the prevalence and sensitivity to antibiotics of bacteria isolated from ocular samplings].this study evaluates the variability of the bacterial flora and the changes in their antibiotics sensitivity tests between 1988 and 1993 in 46090 specimens (conjunctival cultures, corneal scrapings, vitreous, aqueous humour, ocular foreign bodies).19957769159
[public health problems posed by the occurrence of haemophilus meningitis in limited communities and especially its chemophophylaxis].in val-de-marne district there is a permanent medical network to check up all cases of infectious meningitis. h. influenzae meningitis are increasing and represent 25% of all purulent meningitis (mainly infants of less than 6 years old) diagnosed in this area, second only to the meningococcus. english authors find haemophilus influenzae to be as contagious as the meningococcus. public health physicians have to know these informations in order to prevent infection in communities; systematic throa ...19836341942
[tonsillitis today. epidemiologic review. clinical correlates. therapeutic impact].a prospective study was conducted in 216 patients with ulceration of throat and 100 controls. bacteriology showed, in the low percentage of case with positive results, the classical distribution of germs generally identified from throat swabs, with predominance of haemolytic streptococci ab and associated fusospirilla. haemophilus influenzae was very rarely isolated (1%) and immunofluorescence tests for chlamydia trachomatis in the pharyngeal exudate were always negative, in both patients and co ...19873605939
[bacteriologic study of acute otitis media in hospitals and private practice].the authors report the results of the study of 435 bacteriological samples taken in children presenting with acute otitis media, in the out-patient department of ent at the hospital bretonneau (paris) and in valognes (manche) from october 1981 to september 1987. three bacterial organisms prevailed: haemophilus (37 and 22% respectively), s. pneumoniae (25 and 7%) and staphylococcus (16 and 17%). pseudomonas was fairly frequent in cases with otorrhea, even when recent. comparison with other studie ...19883202671
lymphogranuloma venereum: 27 cases in paris.twenty-seven men with laboratory-confirmed lymphogranuloma venereum (lgv) were identified among 211 patients tested for lgv or chancroid during a 6-y period. the patients with lgv ranged in age from 17 to 73 y; most were from countries other than france. twenty-five sought care because of inguinal adenopathy (with spontaneous draining fistulae in two patients) and two because of proctitis. chlamydia trachomatis was isolated from nine patients; all isolates were the lgv biovar as demonstrated by ...19892677162
[bacterial epidemiology of acute otitis media].since the middle of the 1980's, haemophilus influenzae is the most common bacterial species responsible for acute otitis media in france, followed by streptococcus pneumoniae. haemophilus influenzae has maintained its leading position since 1985, but the rate of pneumococcal acute otitis media is increasing fairly steadily. the other recent change with regard to the distribution of bacterial agents is the emergence, four years later than in north america, of branhamella catarrhalis which current ...19921456675
Adherence to preventive measures after splenectomy in the hospital setting and in the community.Overwhelming post-splenectomy infection (OPSI) remains a long-term risk in asplenic patients, which may be reduced by appropriate preventive measures. Specific guidelines have been developed to lower its incidence.201122000846
[surveillance network of bacterial meningitis in children, 7 years of survey in france].consequence of the introduction of vaccines against bacteria involved in meningitis in children and various recommendations concerning antibiotics, the epidemiology of bacterial meningitis has changed during the last fifteen years. the gpip/activ (groupe de pathologie infectieuse pédiatrique and association clinique et thérapeutique infantile du val de marne) set up an active surveillance network to analyze the clinical and biological features of bacterial meningitis.200819268250
[estimation of vaccination rates in children of 10 months, 2 years and 4 years of age who underwent a health checkup at the well child clinic in paris during the year 1997].in france, the vaccination program has changed through the last years. we report a study on immunization rates of children who underwent a complete health checkup at a well child clinic in paris. we studied three groups of children (children at the ages of 10 months, 2 years and 4 years) regarding types of daycare and medical care.199910627897
[trial of prevention of severe haemophilus influenzae type b infections and trial of tolerance, after prp-t vaccination, in the val-de-marne region].protein-polysaccharide conjugate h influenzae vaccine is now routinely recommended for infants. to assess the vaccine's protective efficacy against invasive h influenzae infections and its safety, we conducted a study in the val-de-marne area of france.19968998530
serum bactericidal test as a prognostic indicator in acute pulmonary exacerbations of cystic fibrosis.the serum bactericidal test has been used for many years for optimal assessment of the efficacy of antibiotic therapy in patients with infective endocarditis and other bacterial infections. its capacity to predict the bacteriological outcome of acute pulmonary exacerbations in patients with cystic fibrosis was evaluated. a total of 54 courses of intravenous antibiotic therapy were analyzed in 22 patients, whose ages ranged from 4 months to 24 years (mean age: 10 years). the serum bactericidal ac ...19938424026
