We report a second case of laboratory-confirmed infection caused by Rickettsia mongolotimonae in Marseille, France. This rickettsiosis may represent a new clinical entity; moreover, its geographic distribution may be broader than previously documented. This pathogen should be systematically considered in the differential diagnosis of atypical rickettsioses, especially rashless fevers with lymphangitis and lymphadenopathy, in southern France and perhaps elsewhere.

A prognostic score based on 6 criteria has been proposed at the 4th International Conference on Tetanus (Dakar, April 1975). A computer study of 598 cases indicates that this score may be further improved by taking into account with more accuracy the frequency of peaks of paroxism and the special severity of the intra-gluteal infection.

The authors report on 213 cases of typhoid fever observed in Abidjan (Ivory Coast) from February 1976 to February 1980. The disease, the diagnosis of which is often delayed owing to the local conditions, develops as an endemic disease. Very often, the diagnosis is based on serodiagnosis; for treatment, chloramphenicol is generally used, and total lethality due to the disease rates at 4%.
This study shows the extreme gravity of pneumococcal meningitis in Abidjan. The factors of bad prognosis are: male sex, coma, protein rate of the cerebral fluid equal to or higher than 3 g. Our statistical study shows evident superiority of cephacetrile to penicillin G and ampicillin.
The aim of this study was to examine the global pharmaceutical cost of AIDS patients hospitalized in a ward of infectious diseases in Marseille. They were 209 patients at various clinical stages of HIV infection receiving or not AZT or another specific drugs. All of the 319 hospitalization stays entailed a pharmaceutical cost of 1,065,593 FF for year 1990. A detailed analysis of the therapies, excepted for AZT, determined very large expenses of anti-infectious, hypnotics and other patent drugs of gastroenterology, pneumology, stomatology and toxicology. The study showed that the total drug cost increased with the hospitalization duration.
