Institute of Health and Community Medicine, Universiti Malaysia Sarawak, Sarawak, Malaysia.
We report a first case of ceftazidime-resistant pediatric melioidosis involving a previously healthy seven-year-old boy who presented with right lobar pneumonia complicated with a 5-cm lung abscess. Ceftazidime was initiated on Day-6 of admission when (ceftazidime-susceptible, minimum inhibitory concentration [MIC] 1.0 mcg/mL) was isolated from blood.

PET-CT Center, The First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University, Xi'an, Shannxi, PR China.
Background: Computed tomography (CT) is the most common way to evaluate focal organizing pneumonia (FOP); however, sometimes it is difficult to differentiate FOP and peripheral lung carcinoma (PLC).
Purpose: To clarify the MRI manifestation of FOP and the value of MR in the differential diagnosis of FOP and PLC in comparison to CT.
Material And Methods: Chest MR (3D T1WI, T2WI TSE, DWI) and CT images of 72 patients (50 men: mean age=64.

J Clin Med
January 2025
Division of Allergy and Pulmonology, Department of Internal Medicine, Chungnam National University Sejong Hospital, Sejong-si 30099, Republic of Korea.
This study aimed to investigate the association between nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), assessed by the Fatty Liver Index (FLI), and the occurrence of lung abscess within a large population-based cohort. We conducted a nationwide retrospective study using data from 367,930 subjects who underwent National Health check-ups between 2009 and 2018. Cox proportional hazards regression was performed to evaluate the association between the FLI and the incidence of lung abscess and community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) after adjusting for age, sex, and relevant covariates.

Front Med (Lausanne)
January 2025
Department of Emergency Medicine, The First People's Hospital of Kunshan, Kunshan, China.
Background: A liver abscess caused by hypervirulent can lead to multiple invasive extrahepatic infections, including lung abscesses, endophthalmitis, brain abscesses, and necrotizing fasciitis. This condition, known as liver abscess invasion syndrome, progresses rapidly and is associated with severe illness, high disability rates, and significant mortality. However, bloodstream infections with co-infection involving carbapenem-resistant are exceedingly rare.
