  • Impetigo Contagiosa the Association of Certain Types of Staphylococcus Aureus and of Streptococcus Pyogenes with Superficial Skin Infections by M
    [ 458 ] IMPETIGO CONTAGIOSA THE ASSOCIATION OF CERTAIN TYPES OF STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS AND OF STREPTOCOCCUS PYOGENES WITH SUPERFICIAL SKIN INFECTIONS BY M. T. PARKER, Public Health Laboratory, Manchester A. J. H. TOMLINSON, Bacteriological Laboratory, County Hall, London AND R. E. 0. WILLIAMS, Streptococcus and Staphylococcus Reference Laboratory, Central Public Health Laboratory, Colindale Impetigo contagiosa may be defined as an acute, superficial infection of the skin characterized by exudation and crusting. In this country it is at present mainly seen in children, although it has been an important cause of minor illness among troops in wartime. It appears to have become much less common in the last 10 years, though a recent increase in incidence has been reported (Sneddon, 1953). In the 90 years since the original clinical description of Fox (1864) there appear to have been repeated fluctuations in the prevalence ofthe disease, and also differences in frequency, severity and predominant clinical type in different parts of the world. It is not surprising, therefore, that there have been great discrepancies between the bacteriological findings of various workers, and that the controversy between the supporters of the staphylococcal and the streptococcal theories of the aetiology ofthe diseasehas continued for almost 60 years. Most dermatologists nowrecognize the existence of at least two clinical types of impetigo, associated respectively with haemolytic streptococci and with Staphylococcus aureus, though it is not always possible to make such a clinical distinction in the individual case (Epstein, 1940). The investigation reported here falls into two parts, the first of which was carried out in association with Dr L.

She reported that years earlier, she had had an episode of oral herpes sim- plex virus (HSV) infection, but no previous genital HSV infection. On the day of onset, she had left on a planned vacation. She sought medical attention upon arrival and received 2 courses of outpatient antimicrobial therapy for a presumed bacterial infection, without benefit. This prompted admission to hospital, where she underwent 2 surgical irri- gation and débridement procedures (Fig- ure 1B). The surgeons noted an absence of purulence.

  • Environmental Assessment Mammal Damage Management in Pennsylvania
    ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT MAMMAL DAMAGE MANAGEMENT IN PENNSYLVANIA Prepared By: UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE ANIMAL AND PLANT HEALTH INSPECTION SERVICE WILDLIFE SERVICES In Consultation With: PENNSYLVANIA GAME COMMISSION PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND NATURAL RESOURCES PENNSYLVANIA FISH AND BOAT COMMISSION UNITED STATES FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE December 2014 SUMMARY Pennsylvania’s wildlife has many positive values and is an important part of life in the state. However, as human populations expand, and land is used for human needs, there is increasing potential for conflicting human/wildlife interactions. This Environmental Assessment (EA) analyzes the potential environmental impacts of alternatives for United States Department of Agriculture, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, Wildlife Services (WS) involvement in the reduction of conflicts by mammals in Pennsylvania, including damage to property, agricultural and natural resources and risks to human and livestock health and safety. The proposed wildlife damage management activities could be conducted on public and private property in Pennsylvania when the property owner or manager requests assistance and/or when assistance is requested by an appropriate state, federal, tribal or local government agency. The preferred alternative considered in the EA, would be to continue and expand the current Integrated Wildlife Damage Management (IWDM) program in Pennsylvania. The IWDM strategy encompasses the use of practical and effective methods of preventing or reducing damage while minimizing harmful effects of damage management measures on humans, target and non-target species, and the environment. Under this action, WS could provide technical assistance and direct operational assistance including non- lethal and lethal management methods, as described in the WS Decision Model (Slate et al.
