Purpose : Pleural effusions may develop during the course of bacterial pneumonia. The
aim of this study was to evaluate the significance of the polymerase chain reaction(PCR)
method for detection of M ycoplasma pneumoniae, M ycobaterium tuberculosis and
Staphylococcus aureus from pleural fluid.
Methods : Total 12 samples were obtained from pleural fluid; 2 samples from children
with Mycoplasma pneumonia, 5 samples from adults with... |

Seronegative enthesopathy and arthropathy (SEA) syndrome is characterized by male predominance, late age onset, positive family histories of arthritis, oligoarthropathy, axial skeleton involvement, the presence of the B27 histocompatiboility antigen. It has been reported by Rosenberg and Petty in 1982. Early recognition of this syndrome destined to develop seronegative spondyiarthropathy is necessary to prevent axial spine dysfunction and defomity and... |
