usually presents with erythrasma, a macular rash, but rarely it can cause extracutaneous infections such as endocarditis, peritonitis, pyelonephritis, and catheter-related bloodstream infections. Here, we present the first case of septic arthritis caused by and a literature review of invasive infections. The diagnosis was confirmed by the patient's clinical findings and microbiological examination of the joint fluid.

- - The study focuses on the rising incidence of cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) in Türkiye due to migration and environmental changes, noting that it’s appearing in places where it was previously unknown, leading to misdiagnosis by physicians unfamiliar with the disease.
- - Researchers performed a retrospective analysis of 12 CL cases diagnosed from 2013 to 2022, looking at clinical presentation, pre-diagnosis, histopathological findings, and DNA analysis to confirm species involved.
- - Findings show that only 58.3% of cases considered CL in their pre-diagnosis; others were misdiagnosed, often as skin tumors, with patients presenting non-healing skin lesions that required further evaluation.
Antibiotic resistance presents a significant challenge to public health, as bacteria can develop resistance to antibiotics through random mutations during their life cycles, making the drugs ineffective. Understanding how these mutations contribute to drug resistance at the molecular level is crucial for designing new treatment approaches. Recent advancements in molecular biology tools have made it possible to conduct comprehensive analyses of protein mutations.

This study aims to fill a crucial gap in our understanding of neuroblastoma treatment by investigating the potential molecular impacts of short- and long-term pulsed magnetic field exposure on the neuronal apoptosis mechanism in an in vitro model of neuroblastoma treated with oleic acid (OA).
Materials And Methods: Cells were cultured and divided into six following experimental groups: (I) Nontreated group (NT); (II) OA-treated group (OA); (III) Group treated with OA after being exposed to the pulsed magnetic field for 15-min (15 min PEMF + OA); (IV) Group treated with OA after being exposed to the pulsed magnetic field for 12 h (12 h PEMF + OA); (V) Group exposed to the pulsed magnetic field for 15 min (15 min PEMF); and (VI) Group exposed to the pulsed magnetic field for 12 h (12 h PEMF).
