Infectious and parasitic diseases ,RC109-216 - Abstract
This is the seventeenth chapter of the guideline “Calculated initial parenteral treatment of bacterial infections in adults – update 2018” in the 2 updated version. The German guideline by the Paul-Ehrlich-Gesellschaft für Chemotherapie e.V. (PEG) has been translated to address an international audience.This chapter analyses economic aspects of antiinfective therapy. Any treatment decision is also a cost decision. In this chapter the authors particularly analyse whether or not there is evidence that certain clinically effective strategies as Antimicrobial Stewardship programs (AMS), guideline adherent initial therapy, early diagnostics, De-escalation, sequence therapy or therapeutic drug monitoring also have benficial economic effects. These can be direct savings or shortening of length of stay to free resources.

Aim: -associated diarrhea (CDAD) causes heavy financial burden on healthcare systems worldwide. As with all hospital-acquired infections, prolonged hospital stays are the main cost driver. Previous cost studies only include hospital billing data and compare the length of stay in contrast to non-infected patients. To date, a survey of actual cost has not yet been conducted.Method: A retrospective analysis of data for patients with nosocomial CDAD was carried out over a 1-year period at the University Hospital of Greifswald. Based on identification of CDAD related treatment processes, cost of hygienic measures, antibiotics and laboratory as well as revenue losses due to bed blockage and increased length of stay were calculated.Results: 19 patients were included in the analysis. On average, a CDAD patient causes additional costs of € 5,262.96. Revenue losses due to extended length of stay take the highest proportion with € 2,555.59 per case, followed by loss in revenue due to bed blockage during isolation with € 2,413.08 per case. Overall, these opportunity costs accounted for 94.41% of total costs. In contrast, costs for hygienic measures (€ 253.98), pharmaceuticals (€ 22.88) and laboratory (€ 17.44) are quite low.Conclusion: CDAD results in significant additional costs for the hospital. This survey of actual costs confirms previous study results.

Introduction: The Weight Bias Internalization Scale and the Modified Weight Bias Internalization Scale are well-established self-report questionnaires for assessing weight bias internalization, which is widespread among bariatric patients. However, among this group, psychometric properties of the Weight Bias Internalization Scale have only been examined in small samples showing unsatisfactory model fit and have not been explored for the modified questionnaire. Methods: This study psychometrically evaluated and compared the Weight Bias Internalization Scale and Modified Weight Bias Internalization Scale in a large sample of prebariatric patients (N = 825, mean age = 46.75 years, SD = 11.55) regarding item characteristics, model fit to unidimensionality, reliability, construct validity, and measurement invariance. Results: Item 4 of both questionnaires showed low corrected item-total correlations (<0.40) and was therefore removed from the scales. The new 10-item versions showed improved item characteristics, internal consistency, model fit to unidimensionality, and convergent and divergent validity when compared to the 11-item versions. The best psychometric properties were found for the 10-item version of the Modified Weight Bias Internalization Scale. Conclusion: The 10-item version of the Modified Weight Bias Internalization Scale surpasses the other versions studied in all psychometric properties. Therefore, it should be used in prebariatric patients to detect weight bias internalization and provide them with psychological interventions that could improve bariatric surgery outcomes.

Bei langen horizontalen Ausbreitungswegen in Bodennähe ist die Atmosphäre und nicht die Qualität moderner bildgebender Systeme ausschlaggebend für die Qualität aufgenommener Bilddaten. Besonders wird die Bildqualität durch atmosphärische Turbulenz beeinträchtigt, die je nach Schweregrad zeitlich und räumlich variierende Unschärfe, (scheinbare) Bildbewegungen und geometrische Deformationen, sowie Intensitätsfluktuationen (Szintillation), verringerten (Farb-)Kontrast und Rauschen verursacht. Korrekturverfahren haben entsprechend die Aufgabe, einen, mehrere oder ggfs. alle dieser Turbulenzeffekte in Bilddaten zu reduzieren und diese bestmöglich zu rekonstruieren. Im Idealfall wäre eine solche Rekonstruktion identisch mit einer Aufnahme am Diffraktionslimit ohne Turbulenz. Diverse Anwendungsgebiete, die mit der Akquisition von Bilddaten über ausgedehnte (horizontale) Wegstrecken unter potenziell turbulenten Bedingungen befasst sind, können von einer effizienten Turbulenzkorrektur deutlich profitieren. Neben speziellen Formen optischer Kommunikation betrifft dies insbesondere klassische Fernerkundungsaufgaben, wie z.B. militärische Aufklärung oder (Grenz-)Überwachung. Während für Beobachtungen punktförmiger, (annähernd) statischer Objekte über vertikalen Ausbreitungswegen bereits etablierte Korrekturmethoden existieren (z.B. Adaptive Optik für astronomische Anwendungen oder optische Freiraumkommunikation), handelt es sich bei der Turbulenzkorrektur für horizontale Bilderfassung ausgedehnter und u.U. bewegter Objekte hingegen nach wie vor um ein aktives Forschungsfeld. Hierfür bieten sich vor allem softwarebasierte Verfahren an, deren Hauptvorteile gegenüber Hardware-Lösungen nicht nur in den vergleichsweise geringen Materialkosten liegen, die zur Herstellung und Nutzung erforderlich sind, sondern hauptsächlich in ihrer Flexibilität (inkl. Mobilität) und Vielzahl von Anwendungsmöglichkeiten, wie insbesondere für den Fall ausgedehnter und ggfs. bewegter Objekte. Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich vor allem mit den praktischen Aspekten der Frage, wie genau (d.h. mit welchen Methoden) man solche Turbulenzbeeinträchtigungen am besten (oder ggfs. am schnellsten) abmildern und die Qualität der Bilddaten mit Hilfe von problemspezifisch selektierten Rekonstruktionsverfahren gezielt verbessern kann. Ein besonderer Fokus liegt dabei auf Bildsequenzen, die insbesondere auch (gerichtete) Objektbewegung enthalten, sowie auf einer potenziellen Echtzeitfähigkeit der einzelnen Methoden. In dieser Arbeit werden verschiedene Verfahren zur Korrektur der am stärksten ausgeprägten Turbulenzeffekte untersucht. Dies umfasst die Auswahl und Implementierung geeigneter Algorithmen, sowie eine bewertende Diskussion ihrer Leistungsfähigkeit im Vergleich. Neben Entfaltungsmethoden zur Rekonstruktion hoher Frequenzanteile und Verbesserung der Bildschärfe ist dabei die Kompensation globaler und speziell lokaler Bildbewegungen mithilfe von "Block Matching"-Algorithmen und Schätzverfahren für den Optischen Fluss ein zentrales Thema. Insbesondere wird eine gerichtete lokale Bildstapelung zur Kompensation von Objektbewegungen und Reduktion von Bewegungsunschärfe konzipiert und umgesetzt, wobei es sich um eine innovative Kombination aus Bewegungsschätzung und modifizierter Bildstapelung handelt. Ein grundlegender Aspekt ist dabei die Differenzierung von eigenständiger Objektbewegung und Bewegung, die durch Turbulenz verursacht wird. Des Weiteren wird eine modifizierte mehrstufige Form der iterativen blinden Entfaltung nach Ayers und Dainty mit spezieller Gewichtung der Kanten im Bild vorgestellt, womit sich "Ringing"-Effekte in homogenen Bildregionen reduzieren lassen. Einen weiteren Kernpunkt der Arbeit bildet zudem die Entwicklung einer Methodik zum Vergleich derartiger Rekonstruktionsverfahren unter Berücksichtigung anwendungsspezifischer Prioritäten bei der Bewertung. Zwar existiert eine Vielzahl an Qualitätsmetriken, die zu Vergleichen herangezogen werden können, jedoch ist eine objektive Ergebnisevaluation ohne verfügbare "Ground Truth"-Daten eine nicht-triviale Aufgabe. Es wird daher ein tabellarischer Lösungsansatz vorgeschlagen, anhand dessen sich ähnliche Voraussetzungen zusammenfassen lassen, um Algorithmen für typische Anwendungsszenarien besser miteinander vergleichbar zu machen.

- Abstract
Übergewicht und Adipositas zeigen bei Kindern und Jugendlichen eine hohe Prävalenz und Persistenz. Entsprechende Therapien sind kaum individualisiert und zeigen nur moderate Erfolge. Die Psychopathologie bleibt zumeist unberücksichtigt. Die vorliegende Studie hat die Psychopathologie von Jugendlichen mit Übergewicht und Adipositas (N = 201, Alter 12 – 17 Jahre) vor einer Gewichtsreduktionsbehandlung erhoben und Alters- sowie Geschlechtseffekte untersucht. Mittels Fragebögen wurden selbstberichtet die allgemeine Symptombelastung, Essstörungs- und allgemeine Psychopathologie, gewichtsbezogene Selbststigmatisierung und die körperliche und psychische Lebensqualität erhoben. Mädchen zeigten hypothesenkonform ein höheres Maß an gewichtsbezogener Selbststigmatisierung und eine stärkere Essstörungspsychopathologie als Jungen. Ältere Jugendliche berichteten eine geringere Lebensqualität als jüngere. Vergleiche zu Referenzgruppen aus Bevölkerungs- und Normierungsstichproben zeigten auffälligere Werte bei Jugendlichen mit Übergewicht und Adipositas für alle untersuchten Parameter. Eine auffällige Psychopathologie ist demzufolge ein wichtiges Korrelat bei Jugendlichen mit hohem Gewichtsstatus und ein potenzieller Einflussfaktor auf den Erfolg einer Gewichtsreduktionsbehandlung. Zukünftige Studien sollten die Psychopathologie bei Übergewicht und Adipositas weiter differenzieren und therapeutische Ressourcen evaluieren., Overweight and obesity in children and adolescents are highly prevalent and persistent. Current weight loss treatments are rarely individualized and show only small to moderate efficacy. Only rarely, psychopathological parameters are considered. The present study evaluated the psychopathology of adolescents with overweight and obesity (N = 201, ages 12 – 17 years) prior to obesity treatment. The data were analyzed for age and sex effects. Self-report questionnaires assessed general symptom burden, eating disorder and general psychopathology, weight-related self-stigmatization, and physical and mental quality of life. Girls showed higher rates of weight-related self-stigmatization and higher disordered eating behavior compared to boys. Older adolescents reported a lower quality of life compared to younger adolescents. In normative comparisons with population-based samples and norms, adolescents with overweight and obesity showed significantly adverse outcomes in all parameters. Thus, this study identified psychopathology as an important factor in adolescents with high weight status that may affect obesity treatment. Future studies should examine psychopathology more differentially and determine therapeutic resources in adolescent overweight and obesity.

Abstract Background Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections represent a serious challenge for health-care institutions. Rapid and precise identification of MRSA carriers can help to reduce both nosocomial transmissions and unnecessary isolations and associated costs. The practical details of MRSA screenings (who, how, when and where to screen) remain a controversial issue. Methods Aim of this study was to determine which MRSA screening and management strategy causes the lowest expected cost for a hospital. For this cost analysis a decision analytic cost model was developed, primary based on data from peer-reviewed literature. Single and multiplex sensitivity analyses of the parameters “costs per MRSA case per day”, “costs for pre-emptive isolation per day”, “MRSA rate of transmission not in isolation per day” and “MRSA prevalence” were conducted. Results The omission of MRSA screening was identified as the alternative with the highest risk for the hospital. Universal MRSA screening strategies are by far more cost-intensive than targeted screening approaches. Culture confirmation of positive PCR results in combination with pre-emptive isolation generates the lowest costs for a hospital. This strategy minimizes the chance of false-positive results as well as the possibility of MRSA cross transmissions and therefore contains the costs for the hospital. These results were confirmed by multiplex and single sensitivity analyses. Single sensitivity analyses have shown that the parameters “MRSA prevalence” and the “rate of MRSA of transmission per day of non-isolated patients” exert the greatest influence on the choice of the favorite screening strategy. Conclusions It was shown that universal MRSA screening strategies are far more cost-intensive than the targeted screening approaches. In addition, it was demonstrated that all targeted screening strategies produce lower costs than not performing a screening at all.

ddc:610 ,610 Medizin und Gesundheit - Abstract
Eine erfolgreiche Zusammenarbeit in regionalen MRE-Netzwerken (MRE – multiresistente Erreger) beruht unter anderem auf dem aktiven Austausch der Netzwerkakteure in regelmäßig stattfindenden Treffen. Mit einer deutschlandweiten Befragung der Gesundheitsämter konnte erstmalig der aktuelle Stand zur Durchführung von regionalen MRE-Netzwerktreffen aufgezeigt werden. Es konnte belegt werden, dass am häufigsten der Öffentliche Gesundheitsdienst (ÖGD) die Treffen organisiert. Diese finden zumeist einmal im Halbjahr mit durchschnittlich 10 – 20 Teilnehmern statt. Insbesondere Akteure aus dem Bereich des ÖGD sowie der Krankenhaushygiene konnten als regelmäßige Teilnehmer der Netzwerkkonferenzen ermittelt werden. Die Erarbeitung von Leitlinien wurde als häufigstes Thema genannt. Die im Rahmen der Studie identifizierten Problemfelder lagen in den knappen personellen Ressourcen des ÖGD, der oftmals unzureichenden Finanzierung der Netzwerkarbeit sowie in einer schlechten Motivation zur Teilnahme insbesondere in der Gruppe der niedergelassenen Ärzte.

- Abstract
Objective: The efficacy of bariatric surgery has been proven; however, a subset of patients fails to achieve expected long-term weight loss postoperatively. As differences in surgery outcome may be influenced by heterogeneous psychological profiles in pre-bariatric patients, previous subtyping models differentiated patients based on temperament traits. The objective of the present study was to expand these models by additionally considering emotion dysregulation and disinhibited eating behaviors for subtyping, as these factors were associated with maladaptive eating behaviors and poor post-bariatric weight loss outcome. Methods: Within a prospective multicenter registry, N = 370 pre-bariatric patients were examined using interview and self-report questionnaires. A latent profile analysis was performed to identify subtypes based on temperament traits, emotion dysregulation, and disinhibited eating behaviors. Results: Five pre-bariatric subtypes were identified with specific profiles regarding self control, emotion dysregulation, and disinhibited eating behaviors. Subtypes were associated with different levels of eating disorder psychopathology, depression, and quality of life. The expanded model increased variance explanation compared to temperament-based models. Conclusion: By adding emotion dysregulation and disinhibited eating behaviors to previous subtyping models, specific pre-bariatric subtypes emerged with distinct psychological deficit patterns. Future investigations should test the predictive value of these subtypes for post bariatric weight loss and health-related outcomes.

- Abstract
Weight loss maintenance is essential for the reduction of obesity-related health impairments. However, only a minority of individuals successfully maintain reduced weight in the long term. Research has provided initial evidence for associations between weight-related teasing (WRT) and greater non-normative eating behaviors. Further, first evidence was found for associations between non-normative eating behaviors and weight loss maintenance. Hence, the present study aimed to examine the predictive value of WRT for weight loss maintenance and the role of non-normative eating behaviors as possible mediators of this relationship. The study was part of the German Weight Control Registry that prospectively followed individuals who had intentionally lost at least 10% of their maximum weight and had maintained this reduced weight for at least one year. In N = 381 participants, retrospective WRT during childhood and adolescence, current non-normative eating behaviors (i.e., restrained, external, emotional eating), and change in body mass index (BMI, kg/m2) over two years were examined using self-report assessments. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the assumed mediational relationship. As a result, a greater effect of retrospective WRT during childhood and adolescence predicted less successful adult weight loss maintenance over two years. Current emotional eating fully mediated this relationship while current restrained and external eating yielded no mediational effects. Hence, a greater effect of WRT predicted greater current emotional eating, which in turn predicted a smaller decrease or a greater increase in BMI. Our findings suggest that suffering from WRT during childhood and adolescence might lead to emotional eating which in turn impairs long-term weight loss maintenance. Thus, our results highlight the need for interventions aiming at reducing weight stigmatization and targeting emotional eating for successful long-term weight loss maintenance.

Background Internalized weight stigma has gained growing interest due to its association with multiple health impairments in individuals with obesity. Especially high internalized weight stigma is reported by individuals undergoing bariatric surgery. For assessing this concept, two different self-report questionnaires are available, but have never been compared: the Weight Self-Stigma Questionnaire (WSSQ) and the Weight Bias Internalization Scale (WBIS). The purpose of the present study was to provide and to compare reliability, convergent validity with and predictive values for psychosocial health outcomes for the WSSQ and WBIS. Methods The WSSQ and the WBIS were used to assess internalized weight stigma in N = 78 prebariatric surgery patients. Further, body mass index (BMI) was assessed and body image, quality of life, self-esteem, depression, and anxiety were measured by well-established self-report questionnaires. Reliability, correlation, and regression analyses were conducted. Results Internal consistency of the WSSQ was acceptable, while good internal consistency was found for the WBIS. Both measures were significantly correlated with each other and body image. While only the WSSQ was correlated with overweight preoccupation, only the WBIS was correlated with appearance evaluation. Both measures were not associated with BMI. However, correlation coefficients did not differ between the WSSQ and the WBIS for all associations with validity measures. Further, both measures significantly predicted quality of life, self-esteem, depression, and anxiety, while the WBIS explained significantly more variance than the WSSQ total score for self-esteem. Conclusions Findings indicate the WSSQ and the WBIS to be reliable and valid assessments of internalized weight stigma in prebariatric surgery patients, although the WBIS showed marginally more favorable results than the WSSQ. For both measures, longitudinal studies on stability and predictive validity are warranted, for example, for weight-related and psychosocial outcomes.

- Abstract
Background: Physical activity (PA) seems to be important for long-term weight loss following bariatric surgery, however, studies provide evidence for insufficient PA levels in bariatric patients. Research found self-efficacy to be associated with PA and weight bias internalization, whose influence on mental and physical health has been shown in recent studies. Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the influence of general self-efficacy on PA, mediated by weight bias internalization. Setting: Consecutive multicenter registry study conducted in six German bariatric surgery centers. Methods: In N = 179 bariatric surgery candidates, general self-efficacy, weight bias internalization, and different intensities of PA were assessed by self-report questionnaires. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the assumed mediational relationship. Results: After controlling for sociodemographic variables, weight bias internalization fully mediated the association between general self-efficacy and moderate-intense as well as vigorous-intense PA. Lower general self-efficacy predicted greater weight bias internalization, which in turn predicted lower levels of moderate-intense and vigorous-intense PA. Conclusions: The results suggest an influence of weight bias internalization on preoperative PA in bariatric surgery candidates. Subsequently, implementation of interventions addressing weight bias internalization in the usual treatment of bariatric surgery candidates might enhance patients’ preoperative PA, while longitudinal analyses are needed in order to further examine its predictive value on PA following bariatric surgery.

Neisseria meningitidis, ein pathogenes Bakterium, das schwere Fälle von Sepsis und Meningitis verursacht, interagiert während der Infektion mit verschiedenen Oberflächen des Wirtes. Die schnellstmögliche Anpassung an die spezifischen Milieubedingungen im Wirtsorganismus ist daher ein essentieller Schritt in der Pathogenese. Durch Verwendung von DNA-Mikroarrays, die auf gespotteten Oligonukleotiden basieren, wurde das Transkriptionsprofil von N. meningitidis während der Infektion von Epithel- und Endothelzellen analysiert. Zur Analyse wurde die isogene kapseldefiziente siaD-Mutante des N. meningitidis Stammes MC58 verwendet. 72 Gene konnten nach Kontakt mit Epithelzellen und 48 Gene nach Kontakt mit Endothelzellen als differential reguliert identifiziert werden. Darunter auch eine große Anzahl von Virulenzgenen. Während ein Teil der detektierten Gene in beiden Systemen als differentiell reguliert galt, gab es doch eine Anzahl von ORF´s, die nur für ein Zellkulturmodell spezifisch reguliert waren (59 spezifische Gene für HEp-2 und 35 spezifische Gene für HBMEC). Für einige ausgewählte Gene wurde die im Mikroarray detektierte Regulierung durch Quantitative RT-PCR nochmals bestätigt. Die Funktion von den als induziert identifizierten Genen rfaF, hem und NMB1843 wurde im Anschluß durch die Konstruktion von Mutanten näher untersucht. Das rfaF-Gen, eine in der LPS Biosynthese involvierte Heptosyl-II-transferase, wurde in beiden Zellkultursystemen als differentiell reguliert identifiziert. Die Deletion des Gens führte speziell für den bekapselten Stamm MC58 zu einer signifikanten Erhöhung der Adhärenz und Invasion nach Infektion von Epithelzellen. Untersuchungen des Infektionspotential für HBMEC Zellen ergaben keine signifikant veränderte Adhärenz und Invasion. Bei zusätzlicher Deletion von rfaF in einem opc negativen Stamm konnte eine Abnahme der bakteriellen Aufnahme im Zellkulturmodell HBMEC beobachtet werden. Dagegen zeigten die opc, rfaF negativen Mutanten nach Kontakt mit HEp-2 Zellen keine verminderte Invasion. Weiterhin führte die Deletion des rfaF-Gens zu einer verstärkten Sensibilität gegenüber humanen Serum. Diese Daten deuten daraufhin, dass die LPS-Struktur eine Rolle in der bakteriellen Zellinteraktion spielt, speziell wenn eine für die Adhäsion wichtige Komponente nicht mehr exprimiert wird. Der ORF NMB1843, der für einen Transkriptionsregulator aus der MarR-Familie kodiert, ebenso wie das Hämolysin Gen konnten nur nach Kontakt mit HBMEC Zellen als differentiell reguliert identifiziert werden. In Infektionsstudien zeigten die hem-Mutanten keine veränderte Adhärenz und Invasion. Weiterhin war die Zytotoxizität der Mutanten nicht eingeschränkt. Ob der ORF NMB1646 daher als Hämolysin fungiert bleibt zu klären. Durchgeführte Mikroarraystudien mit den NMB1843-Mutanten, führten zur Identifizierung einiger ORF´s, die möglicherweise unter der Kontrolle dieses Regulators stehen. Dazu gehören die Virulenz assoziierten Gene sodC, iga und nadA sowie das für ein Hämolysin kodierende Gen NMB1779. Die Untersuchung des Expressionsprofils mittels SDS-PAGE Analyse führte zur Identifizierung einer Proteinbande bei 210 kDa, die spezifisch für die NMB1843 negativen Stämme ist. Dieses Protein wurde als nadA identifiziert. NadA induziert im Tiermodell bakterizide Antikörper und gilt daher als möglicher Impfstoffkandidat. Die in dieser Arbeit vorgelegten Daten liefern neue Einblicke in die Pathogenitätsmechanismen von N. meningitidis und belegen die Bedeutung der transkriptionellen Genregulation in den einzelnen Stadien der Meningokokkeninfektion., Neisseria meningitidis is a major cause of septicemia and meningitis. During the course of infection, N. meningitidis encounters multiple environments within its host, which makes rapid adaptation to environmental changes a crucial factor for neisserial pathogenicity. As technology platform oligonucleotide-based DNA microarrays were employed to analyse the transcriptome profile of N. meningitidis during two key steps of meningococcal infection: the interaction with epithelial and endothelial cells. The isogenic capsule deficient siaD mutant of the N. meningitidis strain MC58 was used for this study. Seventy-two genes were differentially regulated after contact with epithelial cells, and 48 genes were differentially regulated after contact with endothelial cells, including a considerable proportion of well-known virulence genes. While several genes were in concordance between bacteria adherent to both cell types, there were a considerable number of open reading frames that were differentially regulated in only one system (59 genes specific for HEp-2 and 35 genes specific for HBMEC). Quantitative RT-PCR analyses confirmed the microarray observed regulation for several selected ORF´s. Subsequently, the function of the upregulated genes rfaF, hem and NMB1843 was investigated by construction of mutants. The rfaF gene, encoding a heptosyl-2-transferase involved in LPS biosynthesis, were detected as being differentially regulated in both cell systems. Disruption of the rfaF gene in meningococcal strain MC58 resulted in a significantly increased adhesion and invasion to epithelial cells in particular for the capsulated mutant. Investigations of the infection potential for HBMEC cells did not result in a significant change in adherence and invasion pattern. The additional deletion of the rfaF gene in an opc negative strain leads to a significantly decrease in the bacterial uptake for HBMEC cells. Compared to HBMEC, opc, rfaF mutants showed no differences in internalisation after contact with HEp-2 cells. Moreover rfaF deficient meningococci demonstrated enhanced sensitivity to normal human serum (NHS). These data provide evidence that the LPS structure plays a role in the bacterial cell interaction, particularly if an important adhaesive structure is absent. The ORF NMB1843, which encodes a transcriptional regulator of the MarR family, as well the hemolysin gene, were detected as being upregulated only after contact with endothelial cells. Using infection assays, no changes were detected in the adherence and invasion pattern for hem mutants. Furthermore the cytotoxic potential of the mutants was not different from the parental strains. Therefore it remains to be clarified whether the ORF NMB1646 actually act as a hemolysin. Microarray studies for the NMB1843 mutants showed some ORF´s, which possibly are under control of this regulator, for example the virulence genes sodC, iga and nadA as well as the hemolysin coding gene NMB1779. The analysis of the expression profile by SDS-PAGE led to the identification of a 210 kDa protein, which is specific for the NMB1843 negative strains. This unknown protein was identified as nadA. NadA evokes a strong antibactericidal antibody response in laboratory animals. For this reason NadA is regarded as a good vaccine candidate.
