UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008297	Male		Males
D002481	Cellulitis	An acute, diffuse, and suppurative inflammation of loose connective tissue, particularly the deep subcutaneous tissues, and sometimes muscle, which is most commonly seen as a result of infection of a wound, ulcer, or other skin lesions.	Phlegmon
D002969	Clavulanic Acids	Acids, salts, and derivatives of clavulanic acid (C8H9O5N). They consist of those beta-lactam compounds that differ from penicillin in having the sulfur of the thiazolidine ring replaced by an oxygen. They have limited antibacterial action, but block bacterial beta-lactamase irreversibly, so that similar antibiotics are not broken down by the bacterial enzymes and therefore can exert their antibacterial effects.	Acids, Clavulanic

D005417	Flavobacterium	A genus of gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacteria widely distributed in SOIL and WATER. Its organisms are also found in raw meats, MILK and other FOOD, hospital environments, and human clinical specimens. Some species are pathogenic in humans.

D013982	Ticarcillin	An antibiotic derived from penicillin similar to CARBENICILLIN in action.	BRL-2288,Tarcil,Ticar,Ticarcillin Disodium,Ticarpen,Ticillin,BRL 2288,BRL2288,Disodium, Ticarcillin
D016470	Bacteremia	The presence of viable bacteria circulating in the blood. Fever, chills, tachycardia, and tachypnea are common acute manifestations of bacteremia. The majority of cases are seen in already hospitalized patients, most of whom have underlying diseases or procedures which render their bloodstreams susceptible to invasion.	Bacteremias
D016905	Gram-Negative Bacterial Infections	Infections caused by bacteria that show up as pink (negative) when treated by the gram-staining method.
