Self-Swab and Saliva Collection for the Diagnosis of Covid-19. What Do Patients Feel About Them?

Hwang SY, Tan SY, Tan PT and Siau C

Article Type: Brief Report | First Published: November 07, 2020

SARS-CoV-2 is the virus being detected for tests for the illness COVID-19. The current gold standard for diagnosis of COVID-19 is a healthcare worker (HCW) performed nasopharyngeal (NP) swab. The IDSA (Infectious Diseases Society of America) suggests using nasopharyngeal, mid-turbinate, or nasal specimens rather than an oropharyngeal (or saliva) specimen because of limited data suggesting lower sensitivity with oropharyngeal specimens. However, subsequent studies have suggested that saliva speci...

Jorge Cardenas, Galit Balayla and Carlos I Bustamante

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: November 04, 2020

Klebsiella pneumoniae invasive syndrome (KPIS) is a life-threatening condition with rising incidence across the globe. It is characterized by a monobacterial primary pyogenic liver abscess with or without additional dissemination. Some of the possible metastatic complications include endophthalmitis, lung nodules, meningitis, and potentially inflammation of any organ. Despite the wide distribution of common K. pneumoniae, invasive syndrome is often overlooked due to low incidence of hypervirulen...

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: November 04, 2020

The bone is a living organ that continues in growth before and after the puberty. Osteoporosis (OP) is characterized by deterioration in the micro-architecture of bone tissue that leads to increased bone frailty and susceptibility to fragility (low trauma) fractures. Preventive measures including patient education and exercise can reduce hip fractures related to osteoporosis. The mean age of the study sample was 28.17 ± 9.76. The maximum number of women were belonging to (21-30 Yrs.) age group ...

False Negative Tuberculin Skin Test (TST) Response in Asymptomatic HIV-1 Infected Blood Donors with Subclinical Iron Overload Developing High Incidence of Pulmonary Tuberculosis on Follow Up

Alice Verghese, Naveen Kumar Singh and Debasish Chattopadhya

Article Type: Review Article | First Published: November 06, 2020

Tuberculin skin testing (TST) response as a predictive tool for development of pulmonary tuberculosis (PT) in Human Immunodeficiency Virus type-1 (HIV-1) infected subjects, is likely to be more valuable at early stage of illness in order to adapt timely management strategy. Earlier reports on HIV-1 infected blood donors with history of oral iron intake and biochemical evidence of iron overload documented development of high incidence of PT on follow up. A group of HIV-1 infected asymptomatic blo...

Surgical Management of an Intrathoracic Desmoid Tumor: A Rare Presentation

Santivañez JJ, Diaz A, Jiménez A and García Herreros LG

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: November 09, 2020

Desmoid tumor is a rare connective tissue tumor, accounting for approximately 3.5% of connective tissue tumors and 0.3% of all solid tumors. It can originate in any part of the body; however, we find them more frequently in extremities, thorax and abdomen. True intrathoracic desmoid tumors however (arise within the thoracic cavity) are remarkably rare. The main problem is the ability to continue growing more than in other locations, and the high relapse rates of this tumor. Adequate surg...

Melcy Cleetus, Dantis Emmanuel, Rajesh Venkitakrishnan, Jolsana Augustine and Divya Ramachandran

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: November 06, 2020

Interstitial lung diseases, (ILD) or diffuse parenchymal lung diseases (DPLD) are umbrella terms used collectively to denote aetiologically heterogeneous group of disorders sharing clinical, radiographic and physiologic similarities. The treatment choices and prognosis vary substantially among the different causes of ILD and hence determining the correct etiology is of paramount importance. Connective tissue diseases are important causes of DPLDs and ILD is an important cause of morbidity and mo...
