Coexistence of Tuberculosis and Lophomoniasis in a Patient With Alzheimer's Disease.

The coexistence of lophomoniasis and tuberculosis (TB), both airborne diseases, is relatively uncommon. Co-infections like these can complicate treatment strategies due to overlapping symptoms and potential drug interactions. We report a rare case of comorbidity involving two pulmonary diseases, lophomoniasis and TB, in an 82-year-old woman with Alzheimer's disease (AD) from northern Iran.

This case report presents a 24-year-old male with pneumothorax resulting from ruptured pulmonary hydatid cysts with bronchial fistulization. The patient presented with persisted dyspnea, productive cough, fever, and mild right thoracoabdominal pleuritic pain, alongside a history of occupational exposure as a sheep keeper.

Massive intracerebral hemorrhage following methamphetamine poisoning in a man: A case report.

Introduction And Importance: Methamphetamine (MAP) is a highly addictive stimulant known to have detrimental effects on the brain and various physiological systems, including an elevation in heart rate and blood pressure. Additionally, MAP use has been linked to the development of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), a serious and potentially fatal condition that is notably prevalent among young individuals.

Case Presentation: We present the case of a 42-year-old man who suffered a massive ICH due to hypertension resulting from MAP poisoning.

Potential diagnostic application of a novel deep learning- based approach for COVID-19.

COVID-19 is a highly communicable respiratory illness caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which has had a significant impact on global public health and the economy. Detecting COVID-19 patients during a pandemic with limited medical facilities can be challenging, resulting in errors and further complications. Therefore, this study aims to develop deep learning models to facilitate automated diagnosis of COVID-19 from CT scan records of patients.

High Occurrence of Emerged Infection among Patients Suspected of Having Pulmonary Tuberculosis: In-House PCR-Based Evidence.

Objectives: infection is a respiratory disease in humans that is associated with symptoms of cough, sputum, dyspnea, and sometimes hemoptysis, which shows the importance of differentiating this disease from tuberculosis and asthma.

Methods: This study was performed on 216 participants suspected of having tuberculosis who had symptoms of fever, chronic cough, or sputum and were referred to tuberculosis laboratories in three cities in Golestan Province, northeastern Iran, during 2019-2020. A sputum sample was taken from the suspected patients.

Methamphetamine poisoning due to body packer swallowing in a prisoner.

Individuals who introduce illicit substances such as opioids and amphetamines into the gastrointestinal tract by swallowing or inserting them into the rectum are known as body packers. We describe a prisoner who developed severe poisoning symptoms after swallowing amphetamine packets and was promptly removed by laparotomy.

and co-infection: the first molecular evidence to overcome potential diagnostic pitfalls.

Lophomoniasis is an emerging protozoan disease that mostly involves the lungs. Because the disease has similar symptoms to other pulmonary infections such as tuberculosis, most cases are underdiagnosed. Here, we present a patient with co-infection of /.

Rectal foreign body in adult male: Unusual case report and literature review.

The majority of rectal foreign bodies inserted by adults are for self-gratification. As a result, they will probably be smooth, rounded, tubular, or egg-shaped to make insertion and extraction easier. Herein, we describe a 50-year-old man who inserts a water bottle into a region 10 mm from the anorectal junction.

Bilateral Wrist Drop Due to Lead Poisoning in a Young Woman With Opium Addiction.

Opium addiction can cause symptoms in the central or peripheral neurological systems, as well as gastrointestinal disorders and anemia; in such situations, lead poisoning should be considered and chelation therapy should be started as soon as possible. In adults, lead poisoning is an unusual cause of abdominal pain. A common form of lead neuropathy includes weakness of the wrist and finger extensors.

Detection of in pericardial effusion sample in a COVID-19 patient with systemic sclerosis: An unusual case report.

Systemic sclerosis is a connective tissue disorder that involves the skin and many other organs, such as the heart, skin, and gastrointestinal tract. Cardiac involvement is in the form of pericarditis, pericardial effusion, and pulmonary hypertension. Several complications and super infections post-COVID-19 have been reported, such as fungal, bacterial infections, and .

Exploring the Association Between Latent Toxoplasma gondii Infection and COVID-19 in Hospitalized Patients: First Registry-Based Study.

Purpose: This study aimed to determine the possible association between Toxoplasma gondii infection and COVID-19 outcomes among 133 patients with an RT-PCR-positive test for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), hospitalized at Imam Khomeini Hospital, Sari, Mazandaran Province, northern Iran, during August to November 2020.

Methods: A questionnaire was used to collect baseline data from the patients who were registered to the Iranian National Registry Center for Toxoplasmosis (INRCT). Also, blood samples were taken from each patient for detecting anti-T.

Global Status of Emerging Infection: A Systematic Review of Reported Cases (1993-2020).

Purpose: spp., is an emerging protozoan parasite that belongs to the Parabasalids (Parabasalia, lophomonadida) which infects the respiratory tracts of humans. Despite the presence of a few reports of human lophomoniasis, the true burden of infection is unknown.

Atypical manifestations of cutaneous leishmaniasis in a boy from Afghanistan.

Cutaneous leishmaniasis is one of the most common forms of leishmaniasis in Afghanistan, which is caused by different species that are transmitted to humans by sandflies. Its clinical manifestations are very diverse and depend on a variety of parasite and host factors.

Diabetic ketoacidosis mimicking COVID-19 in an adolescent.

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) may be associated with nonspecific symptoms such as dyspnea, tachycardia, anorexia, and vomiting that are similar to COVID-19. We describe an adolescent who was referred to the emergency department with the above symptoms and died after being discharged, regardless of the differential diagnosis and laboratory findings.

First molecular approach to diagnose paediatric pulmonary lophomoniasis: A case series.

A prospective study was conducted from 2017 to 2021 at Bouali Hospital in Mazandaran province, Sari, Iran. Out of 58 patients who were enrolled in our study, lophomoniasis was diagnosed in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of nine patients, for the first time, using an in-house polymerase chain reaction technique. All patients were treated with metronidazole at 7.

Molecular evidence of upper and lower respiratory infection due to in a post-kidney transplantation patient.

We report a case of lophomoniasis in a kidney post-transplantation patient. The patient, 46-year-old man, had pneumonia, acute sinusitis, and tonsillitis on admission. We recommend that lophomoniasis should be essentially ruled out in all patients suffering from post-transplantation infection, particularly in those who do not respond to routine antibiotic regimens.
