Gastroenteritis etiology in a university hospital during 1983.

This paper reports the results of a microbiological study of the patients seen with diarrhea at the Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau (Barcelona) through 1983. Two thousand seven hundred sixty three specimens were studied in search of an enteropathogenic bacteria, 1341 were submitted to parasitologic study and 684 to rotavirus search. Two hundred fifty one Salmonella spp., 233 C. jejuni, 152 Shigella spp., 47 Yersinia spp., 96 G. intestinalis and 181 positive Rotavirus specimens were detected. Data about efficacy of the methods employed, seasonal and age incidence and sensitivity to the antimicrobials of the bacterial isolated strains are reported.

In vitro activity of clofazimine against rapidly growing nonchromogenic mycobacteria.

The in vitro activity of clofazimine against 80 isolates of rapidly growing nonchromogenic mycobacteria was studied by an agar dilution method. The drug inhibited 96% of strains tested at concentrations less than or equal to 1 microgram/ml, and it appears to be an agent of potential efficacy against Mycobacterium fortuitum and M. chelonae.

Pseudomonas folliculitis.

Thirty-three patients were shown to have gram-negative folliculitis due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In nine women the eruption was mild and self-limited, occurring after depilation of the legs. The remaining twenty-four patients had recurrent papular skin rashes that were resistant to therapy and lasted between three months and three years. Circumstantial evidence implicated the hospital environment as the probable source of infection.

[Disseminated infection caused by Trichosporon beigelii in a patient with acute leukemia].

We report a case of disseminated infection produced by Trichosporon beigelii in a woman with acute leukemia and we review the cases described in the literature. In our patient the agent was isolated in the blood and in the bronchoalveolar aspirate. The infection was detected at the time the patient was under granulocytopenia produced by cytostatic therapy with involvement of the bones, kidney, lung, and skin. Although this mycotic agent is commonly sensitive in vitro to amphotericin B, there is not experience enough to recommend it and the mortality is high. Infection by Trichosporon beigelii should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with granulocytopenia and infection. This might contribute to improve the prognosis of the disease since and appropriate diagnosis and treatment would be established.
