Meanings of type b in English

Recent work has identified clear distinctions between nontypable and type b strains of H. influenzae.

Overall Staphylococcus aureus, Hemophilus influenzae type b and streptococci are the leading causes of bacterial arthritis.

Over half of the children initially unresponsive to H. influenzae type b meningitis subsequently developed specific antibodies.

All 11 antibody variants bind gp120 and neutralize virus as effectively as does wild- type b12.

We conclude that the administration of conjugated vaccines decreased invasive disease caused by the most prevalent H. influenzae type b clone.

We conclude that this vaccine is immunogenic in children with underlying conditions associated with an increased risk of H. influenzae type b infection.

The type b strain 770235 attached via fimbriae but also expressed a subcapsular adhesin that was detected in a capsule- and fimbria-defective mutant.

The vaccine protects against haemophilus influenzae type b, a bacteria that causes upper respiratory infections, mainly in children up to five years of age.

The broad use of conjugated vaccines against Haemophilus influenzae type b may select for strains to which the polysaccharide vaccine does not provide immunity.

A 13-month-old Japanese female with Haemophilus influenzae type b meningitis presented with unusually severe septic shock and cerebral infarction in half a day of fever.

Background: The management of acute type B dissection represents a clinical challenge.

Type B change only by the more gradual process of antigenic drift.

Type B live in loose pack ice and prey mainly on seals.

Those with type B blood fell in the middle of the spectrum.

Results: Nine patients had type B dissections, and 13 had atherosclerotic aortic aneurysms.

Both type I and II AH originated from type B alveolar epithelial cells.
