This study analyzed the utility of systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) in predicting serious bacterial infections (SBIs) infants with fever without a source (FWS).Infants (aged 1-4 months) evaluated pediatric emergency department for FWS were divided into two groups: SBI and SBI. The efficacy inflammatory markers was compared.The included 223 mean age 76.65 ± 25.42 days; 62 (27.8%) them group, all diagnosed urinary tract infection (UTI). hospitalization rate length hospital stay...
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a tick-borne viral zoonosis with the potential of human-to-human transmission that affects wide areas in Asia, Southeastern Europe, and Africa.
