Presentation
Clinicians should suspect S. salivarius meningitis in patients presenting acutely after medical or surgical procedures involving the meninges. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Facial Numbness
A 55-y-old woman with no previous medical history presented with a 3-day history of progressive headache, nausea, emesis, right-sided facial numbness, and right-sided extremity weakness. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Responsiveness Decreasing
A small fraction (10%) of the urease was rapidly inactivated, after which both the remaining urease and pH response decreased at a similar rate to cell viability (t 1/2 of 15-20 min), but for at least 1 h following acidification, a rapid ureolysis induced [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Dizziness
The patient initially responded well clinically, but was readmitted 4 weeks after discontinuation of treatment, with headache and dizziness. A new cerebral MRI showed progression of the abscess. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Workup
A gastrointestinal diagnostic workup revealed an asymptomatic colonic adenocarcinoma. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Given its association with non‐colon malignancy, in the appropriate clinical setting, a workup to rule‐out malignancy is warranted. To cite this abstract: Felix L, Gurunathan R. [shmabstracts.com]
Because of the frequent association of abscess formation, a routine workup in Anginosus group bacteremia should include a search for abscess. In Vitro Susceptibility VGS are presumed to be uniformly susceptible to penicillin. [antimicrobe.org]

Pericardial Effusion
The use of CPAP made the patient's symptoms worse as a result of an increase of the intrathoracic pressure, which was a pathophysiological mechanism, added to the interference of the localized pericardial effusion and the effect of the pericardial constriction [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
In this paper, we discuss why contemporary probiotics are inadequate for treatment of oral malodour and examine the rationale for selection of particular bacterial species for future use in the treatment of this condition. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Etiology
[…] important role in the cause of tooth decay, the cariogenic microorganisms such as Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus sanguis, Streptococcus salivarius, Streptococcus mitis, Streptococcus oralis and Lactobacillus acidophilus play a vital role in the etiology [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]

As noted by Pichichero (6), sore throat is one of the most commom problems in children and Group A Streptococcus infections account for nearly all sore throats of bacterial etiology. [scielo.br]

Prevention
Our results suggest that K12 may have potential as a preventative therapy to control GBS vaginal colonization and thereby prevent its transmission to the neonate during pregnancy. Copyright 2015, American Society for Microbiology. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
