Gallbladder disease is one of the most common gastrointestinal tract diseases. In obstructive jaundice, there is a reduction in bile flow out of the liver secondary to the blocked bile or pancreatic duct, which leads to excess bile and its products accumulating in the blood. One of these products is lipoprotein X (LpX); its presence is associated with a lipoprotein pattern characterized by an increased concentration of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. Few published articles have reported the association between obstructive jaundice and hyperlipidemia. This report describes a uniqu

This study sought to analyze the outpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy (OPAT) services provided by a tertiary hospital, in terms of types and duration of antimicrobials administered, and assess whether these services were in line with current good practice recommendations. The electronic healthcare records of all stable patients with infectious diseases, aged ≥ 18 years, who received OPAT services between January 2019 and March 2021, were analyzed. For statistical analysis, the patients were divided into younger (< 65 years) and older (≥ 65 years) adults and the difference be

Bacterial wilt as a soil-borne disease was caused by Ralstonia solanacearum, and seriously damages the growth of tobacco. Integrated biocontrol method was explored to control bacterial wilt. Nevertheless, the long-term effects of the integrated biocontrol method on soil bacterial community, soil physicochemical properties and the incidence of bacterial wilt are not well understood. In this study, B. amyoliquefaciens ZM9, calcium cyanamide and rice bran were applied to tobacco fields in different ways. The disease index and incidence of tobacco bacterial wilt (TBW), soil physicochemical prop

Dorsal dermal sinus is a rare, congenital lesion found most frequently in the lumbosacral followed by the occipital regions. It is rarely localized at the thoracic level. We report a rare case of thoracic congenital dermal sinus (CDS) associated with an intramedullary dermoid cyst in a 2-year-old male child, who presented with a 3 month history of motor weakness of both the lower extremities. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of spine showed an intramedullary dermoid cyst extending from the lower border of T4 to upper border of T7, which was connected with the skin dimple along the sinus tra

Overgrowth syndromes generally present with inherent health concerns and, in some instances, an increased risk of malignant intra-abdominal tumors, such as Wilms tumor or hepatoblastoma. There are various types of hyperplasia, but the crossed type is reported to be the rarest. We present a rare, crossed type of congenital hemihyperplasia. A six-year-old girl was referred to our clinic for leg length discrepancy and was diagnosed with congenital hemihyperplasia of the right lower limb and left upper limb. The leg length discrepancy had begun to affect the patient’s gait and stair climb
