Real-World Safety of TwinRab, the World's First Novel Cocktail of Rabies Monoclonal Antibodies, in a Clinical Setting.

Objectives: Every year, 18,000-20,000 people die from rabies in India, with children younger than the age of 15 accounting for 30%-60% of all cases. Wound cleaning, vaccination, and rabies immunoglobulin administration are all part of treatment. TwinRab, a unique combination of two monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), docaravimab and miromavimab, effectively neutralizes rabies and rabies-like viruses.

Characterization of diarrhoeagenic Escherichia coli with special reference to antimicrobial resistance isolated from hospitalized diarrhoeal patients in Kolkata (2012-2019), India.

Aims: This study analyses the prevalence and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) of major diarrhoeagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) pathotypes detected in hospitalized diarrhoeal patients in Kolkata, India, during 2012-2019.

Methods And Results: A total of 8891 stool samples were collected from the Infectious Diseases Hospital, Kolkata and screened for the presence of enteric pathogens. Multiplex PCR identified the presence of DEC in 7.

Distribution of virulence factors and its relatedness towards the antimicrobial response of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli strains isolated from patients in Kolkata, India.

Aim: Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is one of the most widely recognized diarrhoeal pathogens in developing countries. The advancement of ETEC vaccine development depends on the antigenic determinants of the ETEC isolates from a particular geographical region. So, the aim here was to comprehend the distribution of virulence determinants of the clinical ETEC strains of this region.

Genetic characterization and phylogenetic variations of human adenovirus-F strains circulating in eastern India during 2017-2020.

Human adenovirus-F (HAdV-F) (genotype 40/41) is the second-most leading cause of pediatric gastroenteritis after rotavirus, worldwide, accounting for 2.8%-11.8% of infantile diarrheal cases.

Liver Function Status in COVID-19: An Indian Perspective.

Introduction: In SARS-CoV2 infection multi-organ involvement of heart, kidney pancreas and liver are reported. Most studies suggest that though mild derangements of liver function may be experienced by most COVID-19 patients but significant liver injury is not common. The aim of this study was to describe clinical characteristics of COVID-19 patients admitted to this level 4 COVID hospital and find out their relation to the liver parameters.
