  Two days before her referral to the respiratory department in secondary care she developed some chest discomfort and was started on a slow release preparation of cefaclor. [thorax.bmj.com]

• Severe Abdominal Pain

  There have been cases in which severe abdominal pain was traced back to H. parainfluenzae as well (Popov et al. 2019)[16]. In 2019, there was a case of COVID-19 with a patient presenting elevated levels of H. parainfluenzae. [microbewiki.kenyon.edu]

Initially, the systolic murmur heard on exam was not the focus of the diagnostic workup given that his symptoms were highly suggestive of meningitis. Mitral valve perforation and vegetation were eventually discovered via TEE. [journals.sagepub.com]

In a series of 57 cases of A actinomycetemcomitans endocarditis, poor dentition (46%) and abnormal cardiac valves (60%) were found to be predisposing factors. [12] Prognosis The prognosis is quite variable, depending on many factors, such as delay in [emedicine.medscape.com]

Although the facts suggest that this case of urethritis may have been caused by H. parainfluenzae, a possible etiologic role of other microorganisms is not ruled out. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

It should be remembered that Kingella kingae, another member of the HACEK group, has become the main etiological agent of osteoarticular infections in young children in settings where this procedure has been systematically employed.4 We were able to find [elsevier.es]
