Clinical Report of a Rare Mucinous Staphylococcus Aureus Infection.

Background: Staphylococcus aureus is the most common pathogen in suppurative infection, which can cause local suppurative infection, pneumonia, etc. A case of double renal calculi complicated with chronic renal insufficiency and mucinous Staphylococcus aureus infection was analyzed and discussed.

Methods: Bacterial culture, identification, and next-generation sequencing.

Both microbial abundance and community composition mattered for N production rates of the overlying water in one high-elevation river.

Overlying water is another potential hotspot of nitrogen removal through anammox and denitrification reactions in river systems. However, N production and the controlling factors have rarely been investigated in the overlying water of high-elevation rivers. This study analyzed the abundance and community of denitrifying and anammox bacteria as well as their effects on N production rates in the overlying water of the Yellow River source region (elevation range: 2687-4223 m).
