This case presents a 25-year-old Indian male with no significant past medical history presenting to the emergency department (ED) due to two weeks of productive cough with pleuritic chest pain. The patient presented one week earlier to the ED; however, he left against medical advice and was given a 5-day course of Azithromycin 250 mg that minimally improved his symptoms. He returned to the ED shortly after completing the antibiotics and was admitted for further evaluation.

In this study, we correlate the diagnostic, therapeutic and prognostic factors according to the current standard of management of STB.
Methods: This retrospective study evaluated diagnostic and prognostic factors in 77 patients with STB treated surgically (37.

Background: Bacterial genome exploration and outbreak analysis rely heavily on robust whole-genome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis. Widely-used genomic methods, such as genotyping and detection of genetic markers demand high sequencing accuracy and precise genome assembly for reliable results.
Methods: To assess the utility of nanopore sequencing for genotyping highly pathogenic bacteria with low mutation rates, we sequenced six reference strains using Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) R10.
Background: Leprosy, caused by , leads to peripheral neuropathy, commonly affecting the ulnar nerve, resulting in claw hand deformity. Various tendon transfer techniques, such as the Modified Stiles-Bunnell (flexor digitorum superficialis 4-tail [FDS-4T]) transfer and Zancolli lasso procedure (ZLP), are used for surgical correction. However, comparative studies assessing their functional outcomes are scarce.
