Neurological involvement in the form of meningitis or meningoencephalitis, although well documented scrub typhus, has not been extensively studied pediatric population. We report clinical and laboratory profile 96 children with typhus compared those without meningitis. Twenty seven (28%) had evidence The most frequent presenting features were fever (100%), meningeal signs (66.6%), nausea vomiting (56.3%), seizures (55.5%) altered sensorium (51.8%). presented early significantly lower...
Urinary tract infection (UTI) in children is one of the commonest bacterial infections seen pediatric population. Clinical presentation ranges from fever with or without focus and isolation microbiological agents streamline treatment. Moreover, local/regional microbial profiles are helpful antibiotic selection, we conducted a study to assess prevalence urine culture positivity suspected case UTI. In addition, susceptibility patterns ultrasonography (USG) finding culture-positive patients...
Abstract Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant health issue in pediatric patients due to fibrosis progression. Shear wave elastography (SWE) noninvasive technique used assess CKD, but its efficacy needs be better established. This study aimed compare SWE with nuclear scan assessing CKD patients. Aim To determine the area of scarring/fibrosis each using shear chronic and it technetium-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) results. Methods A prospective included 39 who...
Jaundice in malaria is multifactorial. Plasmodium falciparum causes malarial hepatopathy around 2.5% of cases. The spectrum hepatic dysfunction patients with varies from mild clinical and biochemical abnormalities to fulminant failure, although encephalopathy almost never occurs. We undertook this study order estimate the magnitude malaria, associated features, complications outcome patients. retrospectively analyzed data acute hospitalized between 2009 2015. compared demographic parameters,...
Summary We report on the occurrence of pulmonary oedema due to acute myocarditis in an adolescent girl, from northern Indian state Uttarakhand, with Plasmodium vivax infection after parasite clearance. Apart pancytopenia, there were no other features severe malaria. With emergence literature about complications encountered P. vivax, especially this region, a high index suspicion for unusual cardiovascular manifestations is necessary cases
Only a few studies have explored prognostic factors for tuberculous meningitis (TBM) in children, and an easily applicable bedside score TBM has not been developed yet. We compared the sociodemographic, clinical, radiological, cerebrospinal fluid parameters cohort of 94 cases aged 1 to 18 years, with at least 6 months completed follow-up determined associated poor functional outcome. assessed our proposed model using both discrimination calibration subsequently used bootstrap method validate...
Hepatic involvement is uncommon in dengue viral infections and traditionally thought to be associated with severe disease terms of morbidity mortality. This study was conducted order assess the liver function patients virus infection analyse its effect upon patient outcome. Three hundred twenty-seven consecutive were categorized into groups A, B, C D on basis elevation either hepatic transaminases (normal, <3, 3–10 >10 times, respectively). Primary secondary outcome measures related...
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) has been reported in the last decade from hilly state of Uttarakhand, India. We report 47 cases non-endemic Garhwal region this which, over 10 years, were treated successfully. conclude that transmission cycle VL is established region. Effective vector control measures are warranted to prevent disease becoming a health problem, albeit not major one given its excellent response drugs.
Adult cases of visceral leishmaniasis (VL), predominantly males, have been reported in the past decade from natives high altitude areas North Indian state Uttarakhand. We report 14 pediatric VL, who were diagnosed and treated successfully over 7 years. All these children born brought up this area had never visited any endemic areas. High prevalence pallor, splenohepatomegaly, thrombocytopenia poor association with HIV are cardinal features VL region. Although newer drugs become available,...
Background & Objectives: Classically associated with Plasmodium falciparum, neurological complications in severe malaria is increased morbidity and mortality. However, reports implicate the long considered benign vivax for causing as well. We aimed to analyze cerebral malaria, study if there a specie-related difference presentation outcomes.Methods: retrospectively compared patients of hospitalised from 2009-15, (n=105) without (n=1155) involvement terms outcomes, complications,...
The bone marrow examination in cases of infections may be non-specific but certain reactive changes raise high index suspicion infections. present study from a tertiary centre the North Himalayan region India describes clinicohaematological profile and associated with marrow. included all which was done during period between January 2006 July 2010. Leishmaniasis most common infection observed patients presented fever along anaemia pancytopenia. Bone showed predominantly transient...
