摘要
化脓性链球菌(A 组β-溶血性链球菌,GABHS)会引起一系列人类感染,包括坏死性筋膜炎和中毒性休克综合征,因为它产生的外毒素会破坏宿主细胞,促进免疫逃避,并成为 T 细胞的超级抗原。GABHS 结膜炎非常罕见。我们报告了一例 3 岁儿童的膜性结膜炎病例,该病例接受了靶向杀菌抗菌剂、毒素合成抑制剂和羊膜移植的综合治疗。
Amniotic membrane transplantation as part of a multimodal management approach to Streptococcus pyogenes necrotizing keratoconjunctivitis
Streptococcus pyogenes (group A beta-hemolytic Streptococcus, GABHS) causes a range of human infections, including necrotizing fasciitis and toxic shock syndrome, because it produces exotoxins that damage host cells, facilitate immune evasion, and serve as T cell superantigens. GABHS conjunctivitis is rare. We report a case of membranous conjunctivitis in a 3-year-old child who was treated with a combination of targeted bactericidal antimicrobials, toxin-synthesis inhibition, and amniotic membrane transplantation.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
