An Interesting Case of Refractory Kawasaki Disease With Co-infection.

Kawasaki disease (KD), formerly called mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome, is one of the common vasculitides of childhood. KD most commonly occurs in children over six months up to five years of age, although it can occur in young infants, older children, and adults. Early diagnosis is critical to achieving optimal treatment.

Gamma-Tubulin 1 (TUBG1) Mutation-Associated Lissencephaly and Microcephaly in an Indian Child: A Rare Case.

Malformations of cortical development (MCD) are a group of disorders affecting the normal development of the human cortex and are significant causes of delay in psychomotor development and epilepsy in children. Lissencephaly (smooth brain) forms a major group of brain malformations. Microtubules help in the migration of neuronal cells.

Calvarial Tuberculosis With Skin Tuberculosis in a Child: A Rare Case Report.

Calvarial tuberculosis (TB) is an uncommon form of skeletal TB. Early diagnosis can be challenging as they may exhibit diagnostic dilemmas. Another rare kind of skin TB is called TB verrucosa cutis.

Clinical study to determine the predictability of significant rebound hyperbilirubinemia in neonates after phototherapy and conditions likely to be associated with it: Prospective observational study in a teaching hospital in Eastern India.

Aim: Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia is defined as yellowish discoloration of the skin, conjunctive, and sclera from the elevated serum or plasma bilirubin in the newborn. The standard of care for the management of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia is phototherapy to prevent long-term neurological sequelae. The aim of this study was to ascertain the predictability of significant rebound hyperbilirubinemia (SRH) in neonates after phototherapy and the factors associated with it.

Study of the Vertical Transmission of COVID-19 by Using the World Health Organisation Protocol in a Tertiary Care Hospital in Eastern India.

Background: The World Health Organisation (WHO) has established criteria to diagnose vertical transmission in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). This study aimed to determine the incidence of vertical transmission of SARS-CoV-2 using WHO criteria in a tertiary care centre in eastern India.

Methods: A hospital-based prospective observational study was conducted from June 2021 to February 2022 on women admitted for delivery with a positive nasopharyngeal (NP) swab and a SARS-CoV-2 real-time reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test.
