We describe monkeypox virus (MPXV) transmission from a patient to healthcare worker through needlestick injury. A lesion appeared at the inoculation site 5 days after Blood tested MPXV-positive by PCR before symptoms worsened; blood remained discharge 19 symptom onset. Postexposure prophylaxis could prevent potential MPXV bloodborne transmission.
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is mainly caused by Leishmania (Leishmania) donovani and (L.) infantum; however, other species have been associated with VL. We report a case of patient simultaneously diagnosed VL amazonensis Hodgkin's lymphoma. After treatment liposomal amphotericin B chemotherapy, the presented clinical cure. This reinforces hypothesis that can cause visceral lesions related to immunosuppression.
Kidney transplant recipients are a risk group for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infection.This study aimed to identify factors CRE acquisition and infection among kidney recipients.We conducted case-control study; we defined the case as recipient with positive culture identified between January 2010 February 2019. Controls were chosen hospitalized in same period of cases (1:2). Surveillance was performed at admission weekly during hospital stay. The analysis patients colonized by...
Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRK) infections are a growing concern in immunocompromised patients. The aim of the present study was to evaluate impact CRK colonization and infection overall mortality for haematopoietic stem-cell transplant (HSCT) We also aimed investigate resistance virulence profiles isolates assess their epidemiological genetic relatedness. Patients HSCT unit were screened with weekly rectal swab or stool cultures placed under contact precautions. defined as...
