114 patients with meningococcal infection were studied; 72 had group C infection and 42 group A infection. 14 patients had acute meningococcaemia, all of whom had group C infection and 9 of whom died. Clinical and laboratory findings were similar in patients with meningitis due to a group A and C organisms, but arthritis and cutaneous vasculitis were more common in patients with group C infection. The overall mortality was 22% in patients with group C infection, and 12% in patients with group A infection, but was the same in both groups when cases of acute meningococcaemia are excluded.
对114例脑膜炎球菌感染患者进行了研究;72例为C群感染,42例为A群感染。14例患者患有急性脑膜炎球菌血症,均为C群感染,其中9例死亡。A群和C群病原体所致脑膜炎患者的临床和实验室检查结果相似,但C群感染患者中关节炎和皮肤血管炎更为常见。C群感染患者的总体死亡率为22%,A群感染患者为12%,但排除急性脑膜炎球菌血症病例后,两组死亡率相同。
