Pneumococcal endocarditis involving the pulmonic valve in a patient with HIV
Proc (Bayl Univ Med Cent). 2021 Jun 7;34(5):627-628. doi: 10.1080/08998280.2021.1930926. eCollection 2021 Sep.ABSTRACTInfective endocarditis in drug users commonly targets the tricuspid valves, whereas pulmonic valve endocarditis is a rare occurrence. Staphylococcus aureus rather than Streptococcus species is the culprit organism. Streptococcal pneumonia is also not commonly seen as an etiological agent for endocarditis. Here we present a case of a 57-year-old man with a history of HIV infection on antiretroviral therapy who was admitted for sepsis and found to have pneumococcal bacteremia with vegetation on a pulmonic val...

Serotype distribution and antimicrobial resistance of invasive Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates among Croatian adults during a fifteen-year period (2005-2019)
CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of invasive pneumococcal disease in adults is highest in patients ≥65 years of age. Penicillin susceptibility, increased exposure and macrolide resistance were mostly associated with serotypes 14 and 19A. PCV13 and PPV23 provide very high serotype coverage. Future studies should evaluate the effects of the 10-valent vaccine, introduced in the Croatian National Immunization Program in June 2019, on serotype distribution and antibiotic resistance rates.PMID:35505649 | PMC:PMC9086820 | DOI:10.3325/cmj.2022.63.156
