It manifests as either pneumonia or a brain infection known as
meningoencephalitis.
C. neoformans is a globally distributed human fungal pathogen that causes life - threatening
meningoencephalitis [24].
Mice were infected with the aneuploid strains via intranasal instillation and monitored for signs of pulmonary cryptococcosis or
meningoencephalitis.
It causes more than 600,000 deaths a year from cryptococcal pneumonia and
meningoencephalitis, accounting for a third of all AIDS - related deaths.
But it was ultimately abandoned after a reformulated version used in the Phase II trial triggered
meningoencephalitis in some 6 % of patients.
[13] AN1792 was an active vaccine, with Aβ aggregates as the antigen, and
the meningoencephalitis is postulated to have been the result of the vaccine having roused a T - cell response against Aβ along with the necessary B - cell response, leading to a Th1 - biased inflammatory attack centralized on sites in the brain with local Aβ deposits.
Particular effort was made to monitor subjects for signs of autoimmunity, and reassuringly none was observed; in particular, there was no sign of either treatment - associated autoimmunity or
meningoencephalitis.
Progress in the active immunotherapeutic approach to Alzheimer's disease: clinical investigations into AN1792 - associated
meningoencephalitis.
Dosing was terminated after four early reports of
meningoencephalitis, but follow - up continued.
CONCLUSIONS: Postvaccination
meningoencephalitis occurred without clear relation to serum anti-Abeta42 antibody titers.
RESULTS: Following reports of
meningoencephalitis (overall 18/300 [6 %]-RRB-, immunization was stopped after one (2 patients), two (274 patients), or three (24 patients) injections.
The T - lymphocyte
meningoencephalitis is likely to correspond to the side effect seen in some other patients who received AN - 1792 (refs.
The present neuropathological study reports the second case of
meningoencephalitis following immunization with amyloid - beta peptide in AD, and has been directed toward exploring mechanisms underlying decreased tau pathology in relation with amyloid deposit regression, and possible molecular bases involved in the inflammatory response following immunization.
This case illustrates the effects of an Abeta - based immunization on AD pathogenesis in the absence of overt
meningoencephalitis and leukoencephalopathy.

ZIKV has been proven to cause serious birth defects, and is also being investigated for associations with other neurological conditions including Guillain - Barré Syndrome (GBS) and
meningoencephalitis.
The infection, known as primary amebic
meningoencephalitis, is extremely rare.
Interestingly, Dr. Rau's investigations have also confirmed that certain vaccines, including those for hepatitis B, the flu and tick - borne
meningoencephalitis, are co-factors in the development of this disease.
Also known as GME, inflammatory reticulosis, granulomatous reticulosis, hestiocytic encephalitis and neoplastic reticulosis, granulocytic
meningoencephalitis targets the meninges, or lining of the brain and spinal cord.
No dog owner wants to hear that her dog has a progressive brain disease, but unfortunately, that is exactly what granulocytic
meningoencephalitis is.
After coming to SNORT, Angie was diagnosed with a brain disease known as GME (Granulomatous
meningoencephalitis), which is an inflammatory autoimmune disease of the central nervous system.

Your veterinarian will check your dogs mental condition and nerves around the neck and head to see if there is a problem with the central nervous system or the virus that causes brain swelling (
meningoencephalitis).

Meningoencephalitis in two stranded California sea lions (Zalophus californianus) caused by aberrant trematode migration.
Determining the effects of climate change on infectious diseases is complex because of confounding contributions of economic development and land use, changing ecosystems, international travel, and commerce.38 Currently, climate warming has been identified as contributing to the northern expansion of Lyme disease in North America39 and has been projected to increase the burden of child diarrheal illness, particularly in Asia and sub-Saharan Africa.40 Concern has also been raised for climate links to emerging infections, including coccidioidomycosis41 and amoebic
meningoencephalitis.42 Further investigation into climactic influence on infectious diseases is needed.
