Infective endocarditis due to Abiotrophia defectiva and its feared complications in an immunocompetent person: Rare, but real
Mohan Rudrappa, Laxmi KokatnurJournal of Global Infectious Diseases 2017 9(2):79-81Abiotrophia defectiva is nutritional deficient streptococci that cannot be cultured on routine culture medias. Even though fastidious in growth requirement, it is a virulent bacterium preferentially affecting endovascular structures and is implicated in many culture-negative endocarditis cases.

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis associated with anaplasmosis
Tamara M Johnson, Melinda S Brown, Mohamed Rabbat, Jihad SlimJournal of Global Infectious Diseases 2017 9(2):76-78Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a hyperinflammatory syndrome characterized by unregulated macrophage and T-lymphocyte activation resulting in cytokine overproduction and subsequent histiocytic phagocytosis. Variant infections, particularly viruses have been postulated as the inciting factor for this potentially fatal disease. Herein, we will report a case of HLH associated with anaplasmosis.
