| melioidosis with brain abscess. | central nervous system involvement in melioidosis is rare. we describe a 48 year old woman who developed septicaemia and a brain abscess due to pseudomonas pseudomallei. since there is a continuing practical problem in bacteriological confirmation of the aetiological agent, diagnosis of melioidosis has to be made on clinical suspicion. | 1988 | 3174527 |

| evaluation of four serological tests for the diagnosis of caprine melioidosis. | a complement fixation (cf) test, 2 indirect haemagglutination (iha-a; iha-l) tests which differed in antigen preparation and technique, and a microtitre agglutination (ma) test were compared in the serodiagnosis of melioidosis in goats. one hundred and eighteen experimental serums and 3143 field serums from goats in endemic and non-endemic areas of north queensland were used in the evaluation. culture of samples for pseudomonas pseudomallei from 112 goats provided substantiating evidence of infe ... | 1988 | 3190597 |

| childhood melioidosis in northeastern thailand. | eighteen cases of childhood melioidosis in northeastern thailand were reviewed. the mean age was 6.8 years with a range from eight months to 15 years. twelve cases (66.7%) had localized melioidosis, six of which had pneumonia. three patients were diagnosed as pharyngocervical melioidosis, the newly recognized syndrome. nine cases (50.0%) had associated diseases including dengue hemorrhagic fever (dhf) in five cases. in all five cases, melioidosis was diagnosed during the convalescent stage as a ... | 1988 | 3227408 |
| clinical and pathological observations on goats experimentally infected with pseudomonas pseudomallei. | the effects in goats of the subcutaneous injection of varying doses of pseudomonas pseudomallei (90 to 500,000 bacilli) suspended in normal saline are described. high doses (greater than or equal to 500 bacilli) caused acute, fatal infections. lower doses (90 to 225 bacilli) caused acute or chronic disease when infection became established. however, 11 of 18 goats injected with the lower doses of bacilli showed no sign of infection on clinical or bacteriological examination. response to antibiot ... | 1988 | 3355451 |
| first report of septicaemic melioidosis in hong kong. | septicaemia due to pseudomonas pseudomallei was found in five patients; it complicated pneumonia in three. four patients were old and had diabetes mellitus; the fifth patient, though young, was immunocompromised by steroid therapy. the clinical features were indistinguishable from those of other gram-negative septicaemia. four of the patients died. this was the first report of septicaemic melioidosis in hong kong where the disease might be endemic. soil sampling and serological survey gave furth ... | 1984 | 6485053 |

| melioidosis: a reminder. | recrudescent pulmonary melioidosis developed in two patients 12 and 16 years after their last travels to an endemic area. in one, a clinically silent prostatic abscess may have been the focus; and in both, the diagnosis was difficult to make even when the laboratory was notified of the possibility of infection with pseudomonas pseudomallei. recrudescent melioidosis should be considered in febrile patients who have been in endemic areas regardless of the interval from last exposure to the develop ... | 1988 | 3364451 |
