Transient comparison of techniques to counter multi-drug resistant bacteria: prime modules in curation of bacterial infections.

Multidrug-resistant organisms are bacteria that are no longer controlled or killed by specific drugs. One of two methods causes bacteria multidrug resistance (MDR); first, these bacteria may disguise multiple cell genes coding for drug resistance to a single treatment on resistance (R) plasmids. Second, increased expression of genes coding for multidrug efflux pumps, which extrude many drugs, can cause MDR.

Antibiotic Prescribing Practices in a Tertiary Care Teaching Hospital: A Retrospective Cross-Sectional Analysis.

Background Antibiotics are among the most frequently prescribed medications in hospitals, yet a significant portion of their use is inappropriate, contributing to the growing global threat of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). In Pakistan, AMR has reached alarming levels with the rise of multi- and extensively drug-resistant bacteria. This study evaluates antibiotic prescribing practices and the use of culture sensitivity (CS) testing to assess the appropriateness of antibiotic therapy.

BCED-Net: Breast Cancer Ensemble Diagnosis Network using transfer learning and the XGBoost classifier with mammography images.

Background: Breast cancer poses a significant global health challenge, characterized by complex origins and the potential for life-threatening metastasis. The critical need for early and accurate detection is underscored by the 685,000 lives claimed by the disease worldwide in 2020. Deep learning has made strides in advancing the prompt diagnosis of breast cancer.

Invasive Mucinous Adenocarcinoma in a Newborn With Antenatally Diagnosed Congenital Pulmonary Airway Malformation: A Case Report.

Congenital pulmonary airway malformations (CPAMs) are rare multicystic lung lesions typically diagnosed antenatally. We present a case of a term female neonate with antenatally diagnosed CPAM who required pleuro-amniotic shunting at 22 weeks of gestation. The patient was born with a right-sided pneumothorax and severe cardiorespiratory distress, necessitating extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).
