Melioidosis is a neglected tropical infection caused by the Gram-negative bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei, which found in soil and water across countries. The spectrum ranges from mild localized lesions to severe sepsis. clinical presentation, severity, outcome are influenced route of infection, bacterial load, strain virulence, specific virulence genes B. pseudomallei. This case series discusses nine melioidosis cases, highlighting diagnostic challenges. It underscores necessity for...
Melioidosis is a tropical infectious disease with diverse clinical presentations. We aimed to investigate the characteristics and mortality risk factors of patients diagnosed melioidosis in past 10 years. This was retrospective cohort study conducted at quaternary care centre South India. Clinical, demographic, biochemical data cultures were collected between January 2011 December 2020 from medical records. Logistic regression analysis performed screen addition descriptive statistics...
The fruit oil ofCarum copticumshowed the presence of eleven components with carvacrol (45.20%) and ??cymene (41.98%) as major constituents by GC-MS analysis. essential exhibited considerable in vitro antimicrobial activity most gram-positive gram-negative bacteria tested results are comparable standard bactericide. pure inhibited growth ofPhomopsis destructumAspergillus nigerandA. flavus.
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a heterogeneous, hemodynamic, and pathophysiological state which commonly found throughout the world, but disease burden greater in India other developing countries. It characterized by vascular obstruction vasoconstriction leading to progressive increase pulmonary resistance right ventricular failure. PAH disorder carrying poor prognosis; however, dramatic progress has occurred our knowledge of its pathogenesis consequently, treatment over last two...
COVID-19 was declared as a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on 30th January 2020. Compared to the general population, healthcare workers and their families have been identified be at higher risk getting infected with COVID-19. Therefore, it is crucial understand factors responsible for transmission SARS-CoV-2 infection among health in different hospital settings describe range clinical presentations them.
Deviceassociated infections (DAIs) increase the morbidity and mortality in intensive care unit (ICU). Studies from neurosurgical ICU developing countries are sparse.The aim of this study was to assess incidence device-associated healthcare associated infections, pathogens isolated, antibiotic resistance, ICU.A retrospective conducted a tertiary center.This done by analyzing data patients admitted with one or more devices during period January 2011 July 2017.Quantitative variables were...

Salmonella Newport is a major cause of food-borne infection which occurs due to consumption contaminated food items. Stool sample from suspected case enteric fever was received in the Central Microbiology Laboratory tertiary care teaching hospital Southern India. The bacterial isolate identified on basis Gram Staining, cultural characteristics and biochemical reactions as species. Agglutination for serotyping done it found be agglutinable by only Polyvalent O antiserum. For further...
