Abstract Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an emerging comorbidity among people living with HIV receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART), potentially impacting treatment outcomes, including virologic failure. Identifying key determinants of DM in this population crucial for improving patient care. A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted from January 01 to May 30, 2024 at Woldia Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, Ethiopia. total 253 patients on ART least six months were randomly selected....
World Health Organization identified some Enterobacteriaceae as superbugs because of their high production and spread extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) carbapenemases. Moreover, resistance against commonly prescribed antibiotics left few choices drugs to treat infection. This study is aimed at determining the magnitude ESBL carbapenemase-producing pathogens antimicrobial pattern.A hospital-based cross-sectional was carried out from February April 2019 in Northwestern Ethiopia region....
Abstract Background Antimicrobial resistant bacteria among hospitalized patients are becoming a major public health threat worldwide, mainly in developing countries. Infections by these multidrug pathogens cause high rate of mortality, prolong hospital stays, and affect individual country economies greater amounts. Thus, this study aimed to assess the bacterial profile, antimicrobial susceptibility status, associated factors isolates from at Dessie Comprehensive Specialized Hospital....

Typhoid fever continued to be the key cause of morbidity and mortality in developing countries with poor hygienic practices limited access safe drinking water. The Widal card agglutination test is main diagnostic tool Ethiopia, which differentiating overlapping symptoms other acute febrile illnesses such as malaria viral enteritis. This eventually leds unnecessary antibiotic use eventual drug resistance. Therefore this study wants assess burden associated potential risk factors typhoid among...
Background: Streptococcus pneumoniae infection is still the world's most serious public health problem among children under age of five. Nasopharyngeal carriage rate has been identified as an important risk factor for acquisition community acquired respiratory tract infection. To date, little known about nasopharyngeal and antimicrobial susceptibility pattern preschool in Ethiopia. Objective: The aim this study was to assess prevalence children. Methods: A cross-sectional conducted from...
severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2); the causative agent of disease 2019 (COVID-19), pandemics has remained to be a public health emergency international concern. This ongoing pandemic resulted in death millions people globally. About one and half thousand have died due this illness Ethiopia. The clinical presentations vary with geography populations. We therefore aimed at investigating characteristics patients infected SARS-CoV-2 North-East Ethiopia.real time...
The emergence and spread of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESβLs) carbapenemase (CP) producing gram negative non-fermenters are becoming a serious public health threat globally. Infections caused by these pathogens limit treatment options contribute to the significant morbidity mortality. Thus, reduce their spread, early detection superbugs is very crucial. This study therefore aimed assess prevalence ESβLs CP at selected hospitals North East Ethiopia.A cross-sectional was conducted from...
The burden of human listeriosis, an emerging food-borne illness would be higher in Africa due to poor food processing practices. severity the disease and high case fatality rate make listeriosis important public health problem. Besides, pregnant women their fetuses are at risk gaining listeriosis. Thus, we planned estimate pooled prevalence pregnancy-associated Africa. Primary studies were exhaustively searched using PubMed, Cochrane, Web Science, Google Scholar, University Gondar online...
Premature rupture of membranes is responsible for increased perinatal mortality and neonatal morbidity. Therefore, identifying the determining factors essential minimizing its adverse impact. Despite existence this problem in study area, there a gap affecting occurrence. We investigate determinants premature membrane among mothers receiving labor care at three public hospitals Northeast Ethiopia, from December 1, 2022, to March 30, 2023. Unmatched case‒control was conducted total 353...
