    Scand J Infect Dis 45:279-84. 2013
    ..The aim of this study was to determine if a noted increase in non-susceptibility to penicillin among pneumococcal clinical isolates from young children reflected a similar increase in healthy children...

    S Skovbjerg
    Department of Clinical Bacteriology, University of Gothenburg, Guldhedsgatan 10A, SE 413 46 Gothenburg, Sweden
    Arch Dis Child 94:92-8. 2009
    ..Secretory otitis media (SOM) is characterised by persistent fluid in the middle ear cavity, but the cause is unknown. We investigated the clinical, bacteriological and immunological effects of treatment with probiotic bacteria on SOM...

    S Skovbjerg
    Department of Clinical Bacteriology, Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Goteborg, Sweden
    Clin Microbiol Infect 15:680-3. 2009
    ..These data indicate that PCR assays might be a complement for the detection of blood-borne opportunists in immunocompromised haematology patients...

    Department of Infectious Medicine Clinical Bacteriology, Institute of Biomedicine, University of Gothenburg, Goteborg, Sweden
    J Interferon Cytokine Res 30:23-32. 2010
    ..The results confirm the fundamental difference in innate immune responses to Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, which crosses taxonomic borders and probably reflects differences in cell wall structure...
