The immunopathogenesis of dengue severity is convoluted. primary objective the research was to examine dynamics cytokine storm and its correlation with disease development in individuals affected by DENV infection. Additionally, study aimed discover potential biomarkers that could indicate severe infection determine most suitable timeframe for predicting these during acute stage infections. We conducted a temporal analysis daily viral load levels 60 hospitalized patients until discharge. Our...
Blepharitis is a common ocular disease, characterized by redness and itchy eyelid margin. Demodex ectoparasite mite infestation an underreported cause of blepharitis in urban setting. Purpose this study was to estimate proportion individuals with showing evidence infestation. Overall, 20 collarettes showed presence on light microscopy. The emphasizes the importance microscopic examination epilated eyelash for timely diagnosis
Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important cause of hospital acquired infection especially in patients admitted critical care units such as intensive and burn units. Because its considerable potential to become resistant anti-pseudomonal agents, wounds by P. aeruginosa, multi-drug (MDR) strains has a major problem. Aim: This study was carried with aim determine the antimicrobial resistance pattern prevalence MDR among burns at tertiary center. Materials Methods: cross-sectional out...
Dengue virus (DENV) infection is an important public health problem and causes significant morbidity mortality. DENV typically a febrile illness that ranges from mild asymptomatic to fatal dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and/or shock syndrome (DSS). Early prediction of severe disease utmost importance for providing prompt monitoring treatment. The search ideal biomarker (host or viral factors) early remains elusive.
The emergence of resistance to multiple antimicrobial agents in Gram-negative bacteria is a significant threat public health, as it restricts the armamentarium clinician against these infections. aim this study was determine burden extensively drug-resistant (XDR) and pandrug-resistant (PDR) at tertiary-care centre. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing 1240 clinical isolates obtained from various samples during period carried out by Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method. Minimum inhibitory...
Background: Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) is of utmost clinical importance because they challenge the armamentarium treating clinicians, hampering current treatment strategies. Aim: The aim study to detect carbapenemase-producing by phenotypic and molecular methods. Materials Methods: Nonrepetitive isolates were identified conventional methods from various samples. All these screened for carbapenem resistance meropenem (10μg) or ertapenem disc. which found be...
Background: Burkholderia (previously Pseudomonas ) cepacia is a Gram-negative bacillus commonly found in soil and moist environments capable of surviving growing nutrient-poor surroundings. It problematic pulmonary pathogen patients with cystic fibrosis associated poor prognosis. Small hospital outbreaks are frequent, usually because single contaminated source such as disinfectant. Aim: To identify the route infection B. grown from 12 surgical ICU. Methods: We carried out an environmental...
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the most common bacterial encountered in clinical practice, which cause morbidity both hospitalized and out patients. Increasing antimicrobial resistance among uropathogens is a significant health concern. To determine spectrum of microorganisms responsible for UTIs their pattern. Urine samples received microbiology laboratory culture from 17,135 patients clinically suspected having urinary infection during study period were processed according to standard...
The majority of dog-mediated human rabies as well rabies-related deaths are reported from low-income countries Asia and Africa where access to appropriate postexposure prophylaxis is limited or nonexistent. At present, India second in position after China terms having the highest number mobile phone users surpassing United States.In this context, we decided develop a user-friendly, technically less demanding, App for health-care professionals, which accessible even without Internet...
