ABSTRACT An isolate of the multidrug-resistant yeast Candida auris (Pal1) was identified in urine a patient with sepsis and sequenced using both Oxford Nanopore Illumina sequencing technologies. Phylogenetic analysis placed C. Pal1 geographical Clade I, distinct SNPs linked to azole resistance (Erg11 Y132F Mrr1 T647N ).
Background The global COVID-19 pandemic led to substantial clinical and economic outcomes with catastrophic consequences. While the majority of cases has mild moderate disease, minority patients progress into severe disease secondary stimulation immune response. hyperinflammatory state contributes towards progression multi-organ failure which necessitates suppressive therapy variable outcomes. This study aims explore safety efficacy anakinra in leading cytokine release syndromes. Methods In...
Tuberculosis (TB) pericarditis, while uncommon, should be considered in patients with pericardial masses and effusion. Timely recognition treatment anti-TB medications are crucial for a successful outcome.
Abstract Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome is a rare and novel clinical presentation described during the evolving COVID‐19 pandemic. The condition usually presenting as sepsis‐like syndrome leading to secondary multi‐organ dysfunction post–COVID‐19 infection. Although has been mainly in children, adults' form similarly described. We are describing 37‐year‐old female patient presented with fever neck pain after 1 month of mild SARS‐CoV‐2 infection course 10 days post her second vaccine....
Background Studies exploring the effect of COVID-19 on male reproductive system suggest a detrimental association, however with conflicting results. The aim this study was to assess association between infection and potential including hormone profiles semen parameters. Methods This prospective cohort included 48 patients confirmed infection. Patients were subdivided into an asymptomatic group ( n = 30) symptoms 18). Serum levels testosterone, LH, FSH estradiol collected during active...
COVID-19 frequently affects the kidneys with symptoms ranging from mild proteinuria to progressive acute kidney injury. This prospective study aimed assess short- and long-term impact of asymptomatic on renal function healthy young adults, determine correlation between viral load among these patients.This was a cohort conducted over period 6 months. Patients were followed-up at baseline, then after 3 months, respectively. Real-time PCR cycle threshold (CT) used disease activity. classified...
Remdesivir was the first antiviral agent to receive FDA authorization for severe COVID-19 management, which restricts its use with renal impairment due concerns that active metabolites might accumulate, causing toxicities. With limited treatment options, available evidence on such patient groups is important assess future safety.
Infection following SARS-Co V-2 leading to COVID-19 disease is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The clinical entity, cytokine storm syndrome (CSS) a severe immunological manifestation of the ominous consequences. Tocilizumab interleukin-6 inhibitors that has been shown hamper catastrophic outcomes CCS including need for mechanical ventilation as well reduce mortality, but usage limited by warnings reactivation potential latent infections or immune dysfunctions...
Malignant otitis externa (MOE) is a serious infection of the external auditory canal that frequently associated with skull base osteomyelitis (SBO) as well secondary neurological sequelae. Patients poorly controlled diabetes mellitus or immunosuppression are at increased risk developing such critical for multiple local and systemic factors. While most cases to bacterial infections particularlyPseudomonas aeruginosa, fungal also occasionally encountered, often delayed diagnosis high morbidity...
Over the last decade, it has been noticed a significant increase in number of cases syphilis with concurrent increased patients presenting syphilis-related complications. Otosyphilis is well-known complication that most time, can lead to irreversible hearing loss, especially delayed diagnosis and treatment. A high index suspicion needed for an accurate otosyphilis. Complete audiologic recovery rare but still possible appropriate Herein, we describe case reversible loss secondary otosyphilis...
Paragonimus, is a globally distributed trematode, with human disease limited to endemic regions. It can be transmitted humans through ingestion of intermediate hosts that are crustaceans. Most symptomatic infections consist pulmonary disease, and in aberrant migration immature flukes, extrapulmonary manifestations may occur. These presentations relatively uncommon affect various organs atypical Clinico-radiological pathologies often challenging diagnose. Pericardial involvement has scarcely...
Infective Endocarditis (IE) is a very rare complication following spinal epidural injection and requires high index of suspicion for early diagnosis effective management. Staphylococcus Lugdunesis coagulase negative staphylococcus (CoNS) that, unlike other CoNS, may result in aggressive form native valve infective endocarditis mimicking IE caused by S aureus. Surgical intervention usually needed to control infection most cases S. IE. Herein, we report case young lady with congenital Gerbode...
Abstract Background There are limited data describing carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) from the Arabian Gulf region. Our aims were to describe clinical, microbiological and molecular characteristics of CRE infections characterize gene displaying resistance carbapenem. Methods Retrospective prospective review isolated between April 2015 November 2017 at 7 tertiary hospitals in Qatar. Susceptibility testing was performed interpreted according Clinical Laboratory Standards...
Remdesivir was the first antiviral agent to receive FDA authorization for severe COVID-19 management, which restricts its use with renal impairment due concerns that active metabolites might accumulate, causing toxicities. With limited treatment options, available evidence on such patient groups is important assess future safety.
Our patient is a 39-year-old male with normal baseline blood parameters who presented COVID-19 infection, associated neutropenia and then progressed to critical disease culminating into CSS. Based on risks benefits evaluation, he was treated Tocilizumab reinforced G-CSF leading full recovery including reversal of neutropenia.
Abstract Background The global pandemic of COVID-19 infections continues to grow worldwide, with rising number deaths day by day. hyperinflammation state contributes the multiorgan failure associated infections. This study aims explore efficacy and safety anakinra in patients both respiratory distress cytokine release syndromes. Methods was an open-label, multicenter, randomized clinical trial. Patients were 1:1 ratio receive standard care (SOC) alone, or plus SOC. Adults confirmed infection...
