Human monocytic ehrlichiosis typically presents with nonspecific cold-like symptoms and a history of recent tick exposure, often responding well to early treatment. Here, we present the case of a 67-year-old immunocompetent male who initially presented with fevers, chills, dysuria, and hematuria, leading to admission to the intensive care unit with septic shock and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), which was later attributed to infection. Prompt treatment with doxycycline resulted in a full clinical recovery.

However, till today, no direct conclusive experimental evidence of such unconventional order parameters in non-centrosymmetric superconductors has been reported. In this paper, through direct measurement of the superconducting energy gap by scanning tunnelling spectroscopy, we report the existence of both s-wave (singlet) and p-wave (triplet) pairing symmetries in non-centrosymmetric Ru[Formula: see text]B[Formula: see text].
