The contribution of genetic variation of <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> to the clinical manifestation of invasive pneumococcal disease

2017-07-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Different clinical manifestations of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) have thus far mainly been explained by patient characteristics. Here we studied the contribution of pneumococcal genetic variation to IPD phenotype. <h4>Methods</h4> The index cohort consisted of 349 patients admitted to two Dutch hospitals between 2000-2011 with pneumococcal bacteraemia. We performed genome-wide associa...
