Pathogenesis of Foreign Body Infection: Description and Characteristics of an Animal Model
Open accessAbstract
An animal model involving the subcutaneous implantation of tissue cages into guinea pigs and subsequent infection with Staphylococcus aureus was used for study factors pertinent to foreign body infection. Whereas 10(8) colony-forming units (cfu) of S. aureus strain Wood 46 did not produce any abscesses in the absence of foreign material, 10(2) cfu was sufficient to infect 95% of the tissue cages despite the presence of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNLs) in sterile tissue cage fluid. Opsonization of S. aureus by tissue cage fluid was adequate during the first hour of infection, but opsonic coating of the organisms decreased at 20 hr after the induction of infection. PMNLs from sterile tissue cage fluid showed decreased phagocytic and bactericidal activities when compared with PMNLs from either blood or peritoneal exudate obtained after short- or long-term stimulation (P less than 0.001).

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.
