Journal ArticleDOI
Infective endocarditis in adults.
TL;DR: This review article provides a comprehensive assessment of this serious infectious disease, including diagnostic challenges, cardiovascular and neurologic complications, and approaches to therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Google Trends: A Web-Based Tool for Real-Time Surveillance of Disease Outbreaks
TL;DR: Google Flu Trends can detect regional outbreaks of influenza 7-10 days before conventional Centers for Disease Control and Prevention surveillance systems and should work with public health care practitioners to develop specialized tools, using Google Flu Trends as a blueprint, to track infectious diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
A simple model host for identifying Gram-positive virulence factors
Danielle A. Garsin,Costi D. Sifri,Eleftherios Mylonakis,Xiang Qin,Kavindra V. Singh,Barbara E. Murray,Stephen B. Calderwood,Frederick M. Ausubel +7 more
TL;DR: The use of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is demonstrated as a facile and inexpensive model host for several Gram-positive human bacterial pathogens and an E. faecalis virulence factor, ScrB, which is relevant to mammalian pathogenesis is exploited.
Journal ArticleDOI
Medically important bacterial–fungal interactions
TL;DR: The clinical and molecular characteristics of bacterial–fungal interactions that are relevant to human disease are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Galleria mellonella as a Model System To Study Cryptococcus neoformans Pathogenesis
Eleftherios Mylonakis,Roberto Moreno,Joseph El Khoury,Alexander Idnurm,Joseph Heitman,Stephen B. Calderwood,Frederick M. Ausubel,Andrew C. Diener +7 more
TL;DR: Evaluation of Cryptococcus neoformans virulence in a number of nonmammalian hosts suggests that C. neo formans is a nonspecific pathogen, which may facilitate the in vivo study of fungal virulence and efficacy of antifungal therapies.
