Abstract

To clarify the role of viral infection in otitis media, we intranasally inoculated mice with influenza A virus and examined histologic changes in the nasopharyngeal mucosa using a battery of lectins. Additionally, live Haemophilus influenzae or Streptococcus pneumoniae was injected into the nasopharynx after virus inoculation, and the clearance of bacteria from the nasopharynx was examined. Staining of the mucous blanket and epithelial cell surfaces in the nasopharynx with peanut agglutinin, succinyl wheat-germ agglutinin, and Bandeiraea simplicifolia agglutinin was significantly enhanced with intranasal virus inoculation when compared with that in control animals. The nasopharynx was moderately stained with Maachia amurensis agglutinin and wheat-germ agglutinin in control animals, and the staining was enhanced after virus inoculation. These findings were most remarkable 5 and 9 days after virus inoculation. The numbers of bacteria cultured from the nasopharynx were significantly increased when bacteria were injected 5 days after virus inoculation. These results suggest that an alteration in the glycoconjugate structure lining the nasopharyngeal mucosa caused by the influenza virus might be associated with the reduction in bacterial clearance.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
