9 재향군인병 Treatment, prevention, and control Isolation of bacteria and immunodiagnostics Antibiotic therapy Rifampin or erythromycin Eliminate nosocomial spread ( 병원내감염 ) Identify and eliminate environmental source 9

10 수막염 Meningitis Inflammation in the brain or spinal cord meninges ( 뇌척수막 ) Diagnosed by gram stain of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF, 뇌척수액 ) 10

11 수막염 Major bacterial causes include Neisseria meningitidis ( 수막염균 ) Hemophilus influenza serotype b ( 인플루엔자균 b 혈청형 ) Streptococcus pneumoniae ( 폐렴연쇄상구균 ) 11

12 수막염 Transmitted by respiratory droplets ( 호흡기비말 ) Clinical manifestations Initial respiratory illness or sore throat ( 인후염 ) Vomiting, headache, lethargy ( 졸음증 ), confusion, and stiffness in neck and back 12

13 수막염 Treatment, prevention, and control Neisseria meningitidis ( 수막염균 ) Antibiotics penicillin, chloramphenicol, cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, and ofloxacin Vaccine Hemophilus influenza serotype b ( 인플루엔자균 ) Antibiotic rifampin Vaccine (Hib) Streptococcus pneumoniae ( 폐렴연쇄상구균 ) Antibiotics Vaccine 13

14 마이코박테리아감염 Mycobacterium infections In soil, water, and house dust Mycolic acid in cell wall ( 세포벽 ) is protective waxy material that is acid fast ( 항산성 ) Resistant to penetration of some antibiotics M. avium 복합체 (MAC) 결핵 (tuberculosis) 14

15 M. avium 복합체 (MAC) Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) Normal inhabitants of soil and water Infect variety of insects, birds, and other animals Respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts have been proposed as portals of entry Most common cause of mycobacterial infections in the U.S. 15

16 M. avium 복합체 (MAC) Pulmonary infection ( 폐감염 ) Similar to tuberculosis ( 결핵 ) Usually observed in elderly patients with preexisting pulmonary disease Gastrointestinal infection ( 위장관감염 ) Common in AIDS patients Fever, malaise ( 권태감 ), weight loss, and diarrhea ( 설사 ) 16

17 M. avium 복합체 (MAC) Treatment, prevention, and control Isolation from sources such as sputum ( 객담 ), blood, and bone marrow Acid fast stain ( 항산성염색 ), and immunodiagnostic tests Multiple drug therapy Azithromycin, clarithromycin, ethambutol Clofazimine, rifabutin, rifampin, ciprofloxacin, and amikacin 17

18 결핵균 Tuberculosis (TB) Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) ~1/3 of world s population infected World wide distribution Over 7% are HIV positive, over 50% deaths in AIDS patients U.S. elderly, homeless, alcoholic, prisons, and immigrants are some groups 18

19 Transmission 결핵균 Spread of droplet nuclei ( 비말핵 ) in respiratory tract Transmitted from infected animals and their products Reactivation of old, dormant infections Disease develops slowly 19

20 결핵균독성인자 (Virulence factor) Unique toxic cell wall components Mycolic acid and lipoarabinomannan Kill eukaryotic cells and protect Mtb from lysozyme and osmotic lysis Resistant to entry of antibiotics into bacteria Survive phagocytosis Kill macrophages Resistant to oxidative killing Inhibit fusion of phagosome and lysosome 20

21 결핵발병과정 Lung macrophages that have phagocytosed Mycobacterium tuberculosis often die in the attempt to kill the bacteria Tubercles ( 결절 ) form Composed of bacteria, macrophages, T cells, and human proteins 21

22 결핵균감염 Develop cell mediated immunity (sensitized T cells) Basis for tuberculin skin test ( 투베르쿨린피부검사 ) Incubation period 4 12 weeks Symptoms Fever, fatigue, weight loss, cough, and bloody sputum ( 혈객담 ) 22

23 결핵균 Diagnosis Observation of acid fast ( 항산성 ) bacteria Chest X ray Mantoux, or tuberculin skin test Delayed hypersensitivity reaction (48hr) Injection of PPD (purified bacterial protein derivatives) DNA based tests 23

24 Antimicrobial therapy 결핵균 Isoniazid, rifampin, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide Multi drug resistant strains (MDR TB) Extensively drug resistant strains (XDR TB) Resistance develops due to Naturally occurring chromosomal mutations Natural selection of resistant Mtb due to lack of adherence to treatment protocol 24

25 결핵균 Prevention and control Rapid, specific therapy to interrupt spread Retreatment of patients with MDR TB Immunization with BCG vaccine Improved sanitation and housing Reduction in homelessness and drug abuse Directly observed treatment short course (DOTS) 25

26 마이코플라즈마성폐렴 Mycoplasmal pneumonia Mycoplasma pneumoniae Atypical pneumonia ( 비정형폐렴 ) Typical pneumonia ( 정형폐렴 ) caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae World wide distribution Transmission by close contact and airborne droplets 26
