The Role of Quercetin, a Flavonoid in the Management of Pathogenesis Through Regulation of Oxidative Stress, Inflammation, and Biological Activities.

Quercetin, a flavonoid found in vegetables and fruits, has been extensively studied for its health benefits and disease management. Its role in the prevention of various pathogenesis has been well-documented, primarily through its ability to inhibit oxidative stress, inflammation, and enhance the endogenous antioxidant defense mechanisms. Electronic databases such as Google Scholar, Scopus, PubMed, Medline, and Web of Science were searched for information regarding quercetin and its role in various pathogeneses.

Fever for days: A challenging case of dalbavancin-induced fever.

Dalbavancin is a novel long acting lipoglycopeptide antibiotic with a favorable safety profile approved for treating Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections (ABSSSI) caused by Gram-positive organisms. Given its long half-life, a two-dose regimen can provide effective systemic therapy for up to six weeks, making it an appealing option to avoid prolonged intravenous antibiotic therapy. Herein, we report a case of a 27-year-old male who developed dalbavancin-induced fever while treating Methicillin-sensitive (MSSA) bacteremia.

Effectiveness of ceftazidime-avibactam versus ceftolozane-tazobactam for multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections in the USA (CACTUS): a multicentre, retrospective, observational study.

Background: Ceftolozane-tazobactam and ceftazidime-avibactam are preferred treatment options for multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections; however, real-world comparative effectiveness studies are scarce. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic differences between the agents might affect clinical response rates. We aimed to compare the effectiveness of ceftolozane-tazobactam and ceftazidime-avibactam for treatment of invasive multidrug-resistant P aeruginosa infections.

Dual Coronary Artery Dissection With Contrasting Healing Patterns: Spontaneous Left Circumflex and Iatrogenic Right Coronary Artery.

Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an uncommon but important cause of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), particularly in postpartum women without traditional cardiac risk factors. Our case involves a 29-year-old postpartum woman who presented with severe substernal chest pain eight days after an emergency cesarean section for pregnancy-associated hypertension. Electrocardiography showed ST elevation in the inferior and posterior leads, and coronary angiography revealed a spontaneous dissection in the left circumflex artery (LCx) with an intramural hematoma, alongside a dissection of the right coronary artery (RCA) extending from the ostium to the mid-vessel.
