Abstract (VSports注册入口)

A prospective study of infective endocarditis (IE) was conducted between 1994 and 2000 in Marseilles, France, and included 170 definite cases diagnosed with the use of modified Duke criteria. Classification of IE based on the aetiological agent was related to epidemiological characteristics, including age, gender and the nature of the injured valve. Enterococci and Streptococcus bovis were identified more frequently in older subjects (p 0. 02), and S. bovis was also associated with mitral valve infection (p 0. 03). Streptococcus spp. were found to be associated with native valves (p < 10(-3)), whereas coagulase-negative staphylococci and Coxiella burnetii were associated with intracardiac prosthetic material (p < 0. 05). S. bovis and Staphylococcus aureus were the predominant species associated with presumably healthy valves (p < 0 VSports手机版. 05), whereas oral streptococci caused IE exclusively in patients with previous valve damage. The basic host status of IE patients has been linked to specific microorganisms, and this may be of value when empirical treatment is needed in patients who have received previous antibiotic therapy and whose blood cultures are negative. .
