Hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) is a viral contagious of children caused by human enteroviruses (EVs) coxsackieviruses (CVs). There no specific treatment option for HFMD. EPs® 7630's anti-infective immunomodulatory properties have previously been demonstrated in several
Meningococcal carriage studies and transmission modeling can predict IMD epidemiology used to define invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) control strategies. In this multicenter study, we aimed evaluate the prevalence of nasopharyngeal Neisseria meningitidis (Nm) carriage, serogroup distribution, related risk factors in Turkey. Nasopharyngeal samples were collected from a total 1267 children adolescents tested with rt-PCR. Nm was detected 96 participants (7.5%, 95% CI 6.1-9.0), peak age at...
Introduction: Bacterial meningitis is one of the leading causes morbidity and mortality among children adults.

Introduction Although there are studies about sepsis treatment in different age groups, data on immunoglobulin-M (IgM)-enriched intravenous immunoglobulin use pediatric intensive care units (PICUs) limited. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical features and prognoses children receiving IgM-enriched treat sepsis, septic shock, multi-organ failure.Method We extracted from medical records 254 who received infusion (104 for 3 days, 150 5 days) addition standard between 2010...
Meningitis due to resistant microorganisms after neurosurgical intervention progresses with significant morbidity and mortality. Treatment is difficult as the antibiotics available for this purpose well their transition cerebrospinal fluid are limited. Due inability of intravenously administered colistin cross blood–brain barrier sufficiently, intraventricular application recommended in treatment meningitis. Herein we report successful an infant ventriculoperitoneal shunt-related meningitis...
