Case of Mycobacterium haemophilum misdiagnosed as Mycobacterium intracellulare due to one base insertion in the bacterial genome

Rika Nishikawa, Yozo Yamada, H. Kanki, Hiroshi Matsuoka et autres

Abstract Mycobacterium haemophilum is a slow‐growing, non‐tuberculous mycobacteria that causes cutaneous infection. We describe a case of cutaneous infection in a 68‐year‐old Japanese man with polymyositis. This was caused by M. haemophilum harboring one base insertion in gene sequence. At first, the …

[The annual changes in antimicrobial susceptibility test results of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from the Kinki district].

Saori Fukuda, Masaru Komatsu, Tatuya Nakamura, Takumi Jikimoto et autres

A study was conducted of the 1,225 Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains that were isolated at 20 medical institutions in the Kinki district between 2011 and 2013 to determine their antimicrobial susceptibility and to characterize the strains of multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MDRP) and the …

BACTERIAL IDENTIFICATION USING SSRA ENCODING TRANSFER-MESSENGER RNA.

Kayo Osawa, Katsumi Shigemura, Hiroki Shirai, Ayaka Kato et autres

Abstract. Ribosomal DNA (rDNA) sequences are widely used for phylogenetic and bacterial identification. However, rDNA of different species often reveals similar or identical same sequences. This study employed the bacterial stable small RNA (ssrA) gene encoding transfer-messenger RNA (tmRNA) as a tool …

Molecular Characteristics of Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase-Producing Escherichia coli in a University Teaching Hospital

Kayo Osawa, katsumi shigemura, Rika Shimizu, Ayaka Kato et autres

The prevalence of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) has been increasing worldwide. Recently, a pandemic clone of Escherichia coli O25:H4, sequence type 131 (ST131), producing ESBL-type CTX-M-15 has been reported as a major problem. In this study, we investigated the molecular characteristics of 72 …

Culture-Proven Neonatal Sepsis in Japanese Neonatal Care Units in 2006–2008

Ichiro Morioka, Satoru Morikawa, Akihiro Miwa, Hirotaka Minami et autres

BACKGROUND: Recent Japanese epidemiology of neonatal sepsis and its predominant pathogens has not been reported. It is also unknown whether there are center differences in the incidence of neonatal sepsis, including early-onset sepsis (EOS) and late-onset sepsis (LOS) in Japan. OBJECTIVES: To …
