Association of Presence of Aspergillus Antibodies with Hemoptysis in Patients with Old Tuberculosis or Bronchiectasis but No Radiologically Visible Mycetoma
Chung-Ming Chu,Patrick C. Y. Woo,Ken T. K. Chong,Wah-Shing Leung,Veronica L. Chan,Kwok-Yung Yuen +5 more
TL;DR: There was an association between the presence of Aspergillus antibodies and hemoptysis in patients with old tuberculosis or bronchiectasis, suggesting that these patients probably had occult infections caused by the corresponding fungi.
Journal ArticleDOI
MALDI-TOF MS for identification of Tsukamurella species: Tsukamurella tyrosinosolvens as the predominant species associated with ocular infections.
Jade L. L. Teng,Ying Tang,Samson S. Y. Wong,Jordan Y. H. Fong,Zhe Zhao,CP Wong,Jonathan H. K. Chen,Antonio H. Y. Ngan,Alan K.L. Wu,Kitty S. C. Fung,Tak-Lun Que,Susanna K. P. Lau,Patrick C. Y. Woo +12 more
TL;DR: MALDI-TOF MS should be useful for routine species identification of Tsukamurella in clinical microbiology laboratories after optimization of the database.
Journal ArticleDOI
Automated Pangenomic Analysis in Target Selection for PCR Detection and Identification of Bacteria by Use of ssGeneFinder Webserver and Its Application to Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhi
TL;DR: A user-friendly web platform, ssGeneFinder Webserver, which is updated weekly for the automated pangenomic selection of specific targets for direct PCR detection and the identification of clinically important bacteria without the need of gene sequencing is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clarithromycin attenuates the inflammatory response induced by surgical trauma in a guinea pig model.
TL;DR: The present observation suggests that clarithromycin suppressed both the systemic and local inflammatory response after surgical trauma, and it prompts further animal experiments for delineation of the mechanism of action, as well as clinical trials in major surgical procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI
