Scrub typhus in patients with acute febrile illness: a five-year study from India.

QJM : monthly journal of the Association of Physicians, 2019
BACKGROUND Scrub typhus was once thought to be a disease of rural origin and was confined to specific pockets in South Asia. Early diagnosis and treatment is extremely important as it is associated with high mortality if left untreated.

Status epilepticus: Updates on mechanisms and treatments

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) consists of prolonged, self‐sustaining seizures and is a common neurological emergency that causes respiratory compromise and neuronal injury. Without prompt treatment, the seizures can become resistant to benzodiazepines, leading to the progressive evolution of established, refractory, and super‐refractory SE.

Evaluation of loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay for detection of scrub typhus in patients with acute febrile illness presenting to a Tertiary Care Center in Puducherry, India

Journal of Laboratory Physicians, 2019
PURPOSE: Scrub typhus an acute febrile illness has diverse clinical manifestations, which overlap with other febrile illnesses. Due to this reason, it is misdiagnosed, leading to inappropriate treatment, sometimes resulting in fatality.

Research progress on the role of inflammatory mediators in the pathogenesis of epilepsy

Ibrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 44-58, Spring 2025.
In the central nervous system, activated immune cells lead to the overproduction of inflammatory mediators through the corresponding signal pathway. Under the stimulation of inflammatory factors, neuroinflammation ultimately occurs. Overexpression of inflammatory mediators and activated immunocytes plays an important role in the emergence and ...

Host Biomarkers for Distinguishing Bacterial from Non-Bacterial Causes of Acute Febrile Illness: A Comprehensive Review

PLoS ONE, 2016
Background In resource limited settings acute febrile illnesses are often treated empirically due to a lack of reliable, rapid point-of-care diagnostics. This contributes to the indiscriminate use of antimicrobial drugs and poor treatment outcomes.

The role of sleep deficiency in the relationship between adverse childhood experiences and early adolescent pain outcomes

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Sleep deficiency may underlie the negative effects of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on adolescent health outcomes, including persistent/recurrent pain (PRP). Using 4 years of Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study data, we identified indirect (i.e., mediated) effects of ACEs on early adolescent PRP through interim sleep deficiency, anxiety,

Mayaro Virus in Child with Acute Febrile Illness, Haiti, 2015

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2016
Mayaro virus has been associated with small outbreaks in northern South America. We isolated this virus from a child with acute febrile illness in rural Haiti, confirming its role as a cause of mosquitoborne illness in the Caribbean region.
