Assessment of Healthcare Professionals' Knowledge Regarding Nontuberculosis Mycobacterial Infections at Debre Tabor Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, Northwest Ethiopia, 2024: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 39, Issue 10, May 2025.
A comprehensive and schematic illustration of the study's methods and materials. ABSTRACT Background Nontuberculosis mycobacteria (NTM) are environmental pathogens that can cause pulmonary infections, especially among the immunocompromised population. There is limited research on healthcare professionals' knowledge of NTM infections in Ethiopia.

Antibodies and Inflammation: Fecal Biomarkers of Gut Health in Domestic Ruminants

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 343, Issue 4, Page 468-479, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Gastrointestinal infections present major challenges to ruminant livestock systems, and gut health is a key constraint on fitness, welfare, and productivity. Fecal biomarkers present opportunities to monitor animal health without using invasive methods, and with greater resolution compared to observational metrics.

Survival Tactics of Mycobacterium Avium Subspecies Paratuberculosis [PDF]

, 2013
Pathogenic mycobacteria have evolved the mechanisms to subvert host immune response in the favor of longtime persistence and proliferation in the intercellular environment of the host, with resulting in functional dysregulation and disease in the host ...

The Association of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis with Inflammatory Bowel Disease. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
The association of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (M. paratuberculosis) with Crohn's disease is a controversial issue. M. paratuberculosis is detected by amplifying the IS900 gene, as microbial culture is unreliable from humans.
