We characterised 80 Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from human patients with SSTIs at a rural hospital in Ethiopia. Susceptibility to antibiotic of all was tested. The MLST method used type and phylogenetic analysis conducted employing the sequences 7 housekeeping genes. PCR amplification investigate presence following virulence genes strains: hla (α-haemolysin), tstH (toxic shock syndrome toxin), luk PV (Panton-Valentine leukocidin), fnbA (fibronectin binding protein A) mecA...
Amoebae from the genus Acanthamoeba are important pathogens responsible for severe illnesses in humans such as keratitis and granulomatous amoebic encephalitis. In last few decades, AK diagnoses have steadily increased. Most patients suffering were contact lens users infection was related to poor hygiene. However, therapy is not yet well established, treatments may several months due resistance. Moreover, these been described generate cytotoxicity. Therefore, there an urgent need develop new...
Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in Ethiopia. We describe performance Xpert-MTB/RIF assay for presumptive TB health facilities that refer samples to a regional reference laboratory. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted patients with from 1st April 2015 30th August 2016. The performed Gambo Hospital, sent referral laboratory were analyzed according national protocols on diagnosis multidrug resistant-TB children TB. Results: studied...
Ameobae belonging to the genus Acanthamoeba are responsible for human diseases keratitis (AK) and granulomatous amoebic encephalitis (GAE). The treatment of these illnesses is hampered by existence a resistance stage (cysts). In an attempt add new agents that effective against trophozoites cysts, tea tree oil (TTO) dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), separately in combination, were tested Vitro two isolates, T3 T4 genotypes. oxygen consumption rate (OCR) assay was used as drug screening method, which...
A limited number of longitudinal studies have examined the symptoms associated with long-COVID-19. We conducted an assessment symptom onset, severity and patient recovery, determined percentage patients who experienced reinfection up to 2 years after initial onset disease. Our cohort comprises 377 (≥18 years) laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 in a secondary hospital (Madrid, Spain), throughout March 3-16, 2020. Disease outcomes clinical data were followed-up until August 12, 2022. reviewed...
