Metagenomics assists in the diagnosis of a refractory, culture-negative pyoderma gangrenosum-like ulcer caused by Helicobacter cinaedi in a patient with primary agammaglobulinemia
We reported a refractory and culture-negative pyoderma gangrenosum-like ulcer caused by H. cinaedi in a patient with primary agammaglobulinemia. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) was applied for the identification of H. cinaedi and prolonged minocycline and amoxicillin-clavulanate potassium was used to eradicate the infection. Given the difficulties in culturing this organism, it's highly possible that H cinaedi infections have been overlooked. We suggest that early consideration of H. cinaedi infection should be suspected in immunocompromised patients presenting with unexplained skin lesions as the appropriate...

Spread of multidrug resistance in non-PCV13/PCV20 serotypes of Streptococcus pneumoniae: A cross-sectional study ten years after the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in Japan
J Microbiol Immunol Infect. 2023 Jul 20:S1684-1182(23)00123-8. doi: 10.1016/j.jmii.2023.07.004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTen years after the introduction of the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) in Japan, the prevalence rates of non-PCV13 and non-PCV20 serotypes among pediatric pneumococcal isolates were 94.0% and 73.7%, respectively. The predominant non-PCV13/PCV20 serotypes (15A, 35B, and 23A) were mostly multidrug-resistant (≥80.5%), exhibiting non-susceptibility to penicillin.PMID:37517964 | DOI:10.1016/j.jmii.2023.07.004 (Source: Journal of Microbiology, Immunology, and Infection)
