Pathomolecular epidemiology, antimicrobial resistance, and virulence genes of Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. equisimilis isolates from slaughtered pigs in India.

Aims: We aimed to investigate the prevalence, pathology, and characterization of Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. equisimilis (SDSE) in slaughtered pigs of India.

Methods And Results: We collected 1254 morbid tissues (lungs-627 and spleen-627) and 627 heart-blood from 627 slaughtered pigs.

Semi-extended extra-synovial (SEES) tibial intramedullary nailing technique: Up to 10 year retrospective analysis of outcomes and anterior knee pain rates.

Background: Tibial intramedullary nailing is a common method of fixation for fractures of the tibia, with several approaches described. Anterior knee pain is a common complication following nailing, but the reported incidence of knee pain varies in the literature between 10 % and 86 %. There is considerable variation in incidence between nailing techniques, with an exact aetiology still unknown.

Draft Genome Sequence of a Pasteurella multocida Strain Isolated from a Spotted Deer (Axis axis) in India.

Here, we report the genome sequence of a Pasteurella multocida strain isolated from the heart blood of a spotted deer (Bareilly, India). The 2.44-Mbp genome has 2,227 coding sequences, with a G+C content of 40.

A study on the occurrence of Burkholderia cepacia complex in ultrasound gels used in different veterinary clinical settings in India.

Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) organisms are emerging multidrug-resistant pathogens. They are opportunistic and cause severe diseases in humans that may result in fatal outcomes. They are mainly reported as nosocomial pathogens, and transmission often occurs through contaminated pharmaceutical products.

Atraumatic gluteal compartment syndrome-an unusual presentation of a rare syndrome.

Atraumatic gluteal compartment syndrome is a limb- and potentially life-threatening emergency. It is rare, with few reported cases, and can be difficult to diagnosis; a high index of suspicion is required for prompt diagnosis and management. This paper presents the case of a 36-year-old female who was brought into the emergency department following a prolonged period of unconsciousness.

Analysis of bluetongue disease epizootics in sheep of Andhra Pradesh, India using spatial and temporal autocorrelation.

Bluetongue (BT) disease poses a constant risk to the livestock population around the world. A better understanding of the risk factors will enable a more accurate prediction of the place and time of high-risk events. Mapping the disease epizootics over a period in a particular geographic area will identify the spatial distribution of disease occurrence.

Responses to COVID-19 in South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) countries in 2020, a data analysis during a world of crises.

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 was notified from Wuhan city, Hubei province, China in the mid of December 2019. The disease is showing dynamic change in the pattern of confirmed cases and death toll in these low and middle-income countries (LMICs). In this study, exponential growth (EG) method was used to calculate the real-time reproductive number (R) for initial and later stage of epidemic in South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) member countries (April 2020 - December 2020).

A comprehensive review on avian chlamydiosis: a neglected zoonotic disease.

Avian chlamydiosis is one of the important neglected diseases with critical zoonotic potential. Chlamydia psittaci, the causative agent, affects most categories of birds, livestock, companion animals, and humans. It has many obscured characters and epidemiological dimensions, which makes it unique among other bacterial agents.

Spatio-temporal and time series analysis of bluetongue outbreaks with environmental factors extracted from Google Earth Engine (GEE) in Andhra Pradesh, India.

This study describes the spatial and temporal patterns of bluetongue (BT) outbreaks with environmental factors in undivided Andhra Pradesh, India. Descriptive analysis of the reported BT outbreaks (n = 2,697) in the study period (2000-2017) revealed a higher frequency of outbreaks during monsoon and post-monsoon months. Correlation analysis of Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI), rainfall and relative humidity (RH) displayed a significant positive correlation with BT outbreaks (p < .

Antimicrobial resistance pattern of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing isolated from fecal samples of piglets and pig farm workers of selected organized farms of India.

Background And Aim: Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing are gradually increasing worldwide and carry a serious public threat. This study aimed to determine the antimicrobial resistance pattern of ESBL-producing isolated from fecal samples of piglets and pig farm workers.

Materials And Methods: Fecal samples from <3-month-old piglets (n=156) and farm workers (n=21) were processed for the isolation of ESBL-producing in MacConkey agar added with 1 µg/mL of cefotaxime.
