Endemic Infectious Diseases of Afghanistan

Clinical Infectious Diseases (2002)

Mark R. Wallace Braden Hale Gregory Utz Patrick E. Olson Kenneth C. Earhart

The current crisis in Afghanistan has resulted in an influx of Western military personnel, peacekeepers, humanitarian workers, and journalists. At the same time, unprecedented numbers of internally displaced persons and refugees have overwhelmed much of the already fragile infrastructure, setting the stage for outbreaks of infectious diseases among both foreigners and local populations. This review surveys the literature concerning the infectious diseases of Afghanistan and south-central Asia, with particular emphasis on diseases not typically seen in the Western world.

Staphylococcus lugdunensis:

Southern Medical Journal (2011)

A. Klotchko Mark R. Wallace Carmelo Licitra Barry Sieger

To evaluate the clinical relevance and impact of an emerging bacterial pathogen, Staphylococcus lugdunensis, in a large teaching hospital.Three-year retrospective microbiological and clinical review of all S. lugdunensis isolates from a single medical center.Seventy-seven isolates were identified; 70 had complete data. Soft tissue, bone, joint, central nervous system, urine and bloodstream infections occurred. Soft tissue infections were primarily abscesses. There were four infections of prosthetic joints and nine cases of osteomyelitis. There were 21 bacteremias, 5 of which were associated with endocarditis; 2 died. Most isolates were penicillin resistant.S. lugdunensis has emerged as a major human pathogen, capable of causing significant infections at many sites. It should never be dismissed as a contaminant without careful review.

Tracheobronchitis Due to Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum

Southern Medical Journal (1991)

Timothy Craig FRANK E. MAGUIRE Mark R. Wallace

We have presented a case of tracheobronchitis due to C pseudodiphtheriticum in a patient with COPD who was treated with prednisone and apparently was not otherwise immunocompromised. Chronic lung disease seems to predispose to infection with C pseudodiphtheriticum; it can also occur in the immunocompetent host. This organism, when isolated in pure culture, should not be dismissed as a contaminant, but must be considered a possible etiologic agent. Sensitivity of diphtheroids to antibiotics is extremely variable. We believe vancomycin should be used in respiratory tract infections caused by diphtheroids, including C pseudodiphtheriticum, until the results of in vitro antibiotic susceptibility tests are available.

Tumor necrosis factor, interleukin‐2, and interferon‐gamma in adult varicella

Journal of Medical Virology (1994)

Mark R. Wallace Ingrid Woelfl William A. Bowler Patrick E. Olson Nancy B. Murray

Abstract Adult varicella can be a severe illness complicated by pneumonia, encephalitis, or prolonged fever. This study measured levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‐alpha, interleukin‐2 (IL‐2), and interferon gamma (IFN‐G) in a consecutive group of 31 adult varicella patients presenting within 24 hours of rash onset. All cytokines were assayed using an ELISA technique. TNF‐alpha was detectable in 71% of patients with a mean level of 52 pg/ml. IL‐2 was detectable in 29% with a mean level of 1040 pg/ml. IFN‐gamma was detectable in only 9%. There was no correlation between TNF, IL‐2, or IFN‐G level and clinical severity as determined by duration and severity of cutaneous findings, duration of fever, frequency of hepatitis, or thrombocytopenia. © 1994 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Reimmunization with 23-Valent Pneumococcal Vaccine for Patients Infected with Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1: Clinical, Immunologic, and Virologic Responses

Clinical Infectious Diseases (2002)

Sybil Tasker Mark R. Wallace Jeffrey B. Rubins William B. Paxton James O Brien

We determined the immunogenicity and safety of reimmunization with the 23-valent polysaccharide pneumococcal vaccine in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). Patients immunized >5 years earlier (initially within 1 year of HIV-1 seroconversion) were randomized to receive vaccine (n=57) or placebo (n=30). Persons with recent HIV-1 seroconversion (n=14) were immunized for the first time. Preimmunization levels of capsule-specific immunoglobulin G were similar in all groups. Reimmunized patients showed a significantly lower frequency and magnitude of antibody responses compared with persons with recent HIV-1 seroconversion. Reimmunized patients did not show adverse virologic or immunologic changes, but some reported local discomfort (15%) or fever (8%). Thus, the limited responses after reimmunization of HIV-1-infected patients with the current 23-valent vaccine mandates the need for a more effective reimmunization schedule, more immunogenic vaccines, or other behavioral and therapeutic interventions.
