Severe staphylococcal Infections - Severe staphylococcal infections (including methicillin-resistant staphylococci) in patients who cannot receive or who have failed to respond to penicillins and cephalosporins, or who have infections with resistant staphylococci. Infections may include endocarditis, bone infections, lower respiratory tract infections, septicemia, and skin and skin structure infections.

Urinary tract infections can be classified by anatomic site of involvement into lower and upper urinary tract infections. Lower UTls include cystitis, urethritis, prostatitis, and epididymitis, whereas upper urinary tract infections include pyelonephritis. UTls also may be further classified as complicated or uncomplicated. In females with a structurally normal urinary tract, both cystitis and pyelonephritis are considered uncomplicated UTls. UTls in men, elderly individuals, pregnant women, or patients with in-dwelling... 

Urethral syndrome, which affects 20-30% of adult women and may have one of several functional or psychogenic causes, has similar symptoms to cystitis caused by infection (lower urinary tract infection). 

Dr. Livingston first viewed Progenitor cryptocides as attacking the genetic memory of the nucleus of healthy cells, causing them to proliferate. A later viewpoint was that P. cryptocides causes infection, lowering the immune response, which enables the cancer cells to multiply. In other words, cancer is an immune-deficiency disease (Walters, 1993, pp. 74, 75). 

TICARCILLIN/CLAVULANATE POTASSIUM (Timentin powder for injection 3 g ticarcillin (as disodium) and 0.1 g clavulanic acid (as potassium) (contains 4.75 mEq sodium and 0.15 mEq potassium/g), injection solution 3 g ticarcillin (as disodium) and 0.1 g clavulanic acid (as potassium) per 100 mL (contains 18.7 mEq sodium and 0.5 mEq potassium per 100 mL)) Ticarcillin/clavulanate potassium is an extended-spectrum penicillin. Ticarcillin inhibits bacterial cell wall mucopep-tide synthesis. Clavulanate lactamase enzymes are commonly found in microorganisms resistant to ticarcillin. They are indicated in the treatment of bacterial septicemia, skin and skin structure infections, lower respiratory tract infections, bone and joint infections, GU and gynecologic infections, and intra-abdominal infections caused by susceptible strains of bacteria. 

In acyclovir-resistant mucocutaneous HSV infections, lower doses of foscamet (40 mgAg every 8 hours for 7 days or longer) are associated with cessation of viral shedding and complete healing of lesions in -75% of patients. Foscamet also appears to be effective in acyclovir-resist-ant VZV infections. Topical foscamet cream may be useful in chronic acyclovir-resistant infections in immunocompromised patients.

Lower panel poliovirus infected HeLa cells pulse labeled for 30 min at 3 br post infection. Modified from Paucha ad. (25) ... 

The fundamental techniques of nephrostomy insertion, track dilatation, and stent insertion have led to the development of more sophisticated endou-rologic procedures. The initial percutaneous technique developed was for removal of renal calculi. Within a short time, techniques for treatment of ureteropelvic junction and ureteral strictures were developed. Today percutaneous nephrolithotomy has been replaced in many situations by extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) and uretero-scopic techniques. However, nonoperative management of staghorn calculi, infected lower pole calculi, or cystine stones via percutaneous nephrolithotomy and lithotripsy is still indicated.
