Key Disease-Related Genes and Immune Cell Infiltration Landscape in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Bioinformatics Investigation.

Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD), which encompass ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), are characterized by chronic inflammation and tissue damage of the gastrointestinal tract. This study aimed to uncover novel disease-gene signatures, dysregulated pathways, and the immune cell infiltration landscape of inflamed tissues. Eight publicly available transcriptomic datasets, including inflamed and non-inflamed tissues from CD and UC patients were analyzed.

Rare occurrence of sagittal sinus thrombosis and haemorrhagic infarction with dengue fever: jumping from traditional symptoms to lethal neurological consequences.

Introduction And Importance: Dengue virus (DENV) is an RNA virus transmitted by Aides mosquito causing dengue fever. There is growing recognition of neurological symptoms associated with DENV infection, some of which might be lethal if left untreated. Case reports describing sagittal sinus thrombosis, as a serious neurologic consequence of dengue infection, are rare.

Hematological Markers as Predictors of ICU Admission in COVID-19 Patients: A Case-Control Study From a Tertiary Hospital.

Background: COVID-19 illness severity ranges from mild- to life-threatening cases necessitating critical care. Rapid prediction of disease severity and the need for critical care support in COVID-19 patients remain essential, not only for current management but also for preparedness in future pandemics. This study aimed to assess hematological parameters as predictors of intensive care unit (ICU) admission and survival in COVID-19 patients, providing insights applicable to a broad range of infectious diseases.
