Presentation
For example, U. urealyticum is present in the genital tract of about 60% of healthy women and M. hominis is present in about 20%. [labcorp.com]
HDM extracts are made from natural animal material which opens up the possibility for different kinds of bacteria to be present in them from the mite of origin. [citeqbiologics.com]
A 20-year-old man presented with a 1-month history of blurry vision. Prior to presentation, he completed a 1-week course of oral levofloxacin for community-acquired pneumonia. His visual acuity was 20/25 in the right eye and 20/30 in the left eye. [jamanetwork.com]
For example, U. urealyticum is present in the genital tract of about 60 per cent of healthy women and M. hominis is present in about 20 per cent. [labtestsonline.org.au]

Workup
An extensive infectious and autoimmune workup was pursued. Mycoplasma IgM serology (enzyme immunoassay and confirmatory immunoflourescence) returned positive. She was treated with a course of azithromycin and IvIG with rapid improvement. [neurology.org]
The results of a full uveitis workup were negative for antinuclear antibody, rheumatoid factor, antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody, HLA-B27, angiotensin-converting enzyme, Lyme disease, syphilis, and B henselae. [jamanetwork.com]
Department of Paediatrics, Nordsjællands Hospital, Hillerød, Denmark and Department of Clinical Microbiology, Herlev Hospital, Herlev, Denmark) sponsored this study by financing the microbiological analyses that was done supplementary to the clinical workups [journals.plos.org]
Treatment
Plasmocin™ Treatment (25 mg/ml): to eliminate mycoplasmas, use at 25 µg/ml for 2 weeks. [invivogen.com]
Mycoplasma-EX has been shown to be effective with only one treatment, destroying mycoplasmas permanently within 2-3 hours using the non-antibiotic Initial Treatment Reagent only. [promokine.info]
Appropriate empirical antimicrobial treatment is necessary to achieve an optimal therapeutic outcome. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment and prognosis Most patients recover well although a small proportion of patients may develop bronchiectasis in the affected region or Swyer James syndrome. Promoted articles (advertising) [radiopaedia.org]
Patients with limited disease generally have an excellent prognosis. In the more advanced stages, the prognosis is poor. (WHO, 2001) [ 1 ] Mycosis fungoidess most frequently harbor alterations in ERBB4, AR, WT1, USP28, and TSHR [ 2 ]. [mycancergenome.org]
Prognosis The disease is slowly progressive (it may evolve over 10 to 30 years after the initial presentation). The prognosis depends on the stage at diagnosis. The documents contained in this web site are presented for information purposes only. [orpha.net]
Etiology
Defining the microbial etiology of culture-negative prosthetic joint infection (PJI) can be challenging. Metagenomic shotgun sequencing is a new tool to identify organisms undetected by conventional methods. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The etiologic agent of primary atypical pneumonia, it has also been implicated in both upper and lower respiratory tract infections, including tracheobronchitis, bronchitis and bronchiolitis. [uniprot.org]
Mycoplasma pneumoniae is one of the main etiological agents of community-acquired pneumonia, although its incidence is generally unknown in Brazil. [scielo.br]
These results point to an etiologic role for chronic infection in lung carcinogenesis. [doi.org]
Mycoplasma pneumoniae, a common respiratory pathogen, has been implicated as an etiology of encephalitis. [pediatrics.aappublications.org]
Epidemiology
A few epidemiological studies, however, continue to raise concern over such a linkage. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Pathophysiology
It is characterised by hypertrophy of the gastric folds of the fundus and body, mucosal hypersecretion, protein loss and hypochlorhydria.1 Its pathophysiology has not been established, with different authors suggesting the possibility of infectious, autoimmune [analesdepediatria.org]
In sequencing these genomes researchers hope to increase understanding of the pathophysiology of the pathogen, by identifying virulence factors. [microbewiki.kenyon.edu]
Taken together, these studies show a relationship between M. genitalium infection and the female physiology, pregnancy, and pathophysiology. 3.3. [hindawi.com]
Pathophysiology Mycoplasma is an obligate parasite and primarily an extracellular pathogen that has developed a specialized organelle for attachment to host cells. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The following species use humans as the primary host: Pathophysiology[edit] Mycoplasma species have been isolated from women with bacterial vaginosis.[3] M. genitalium is found in women with pelvic inflammatory disease.[9] In addition, infection is associated [en.wikipedia.org]
