Introduction: The incidence of invasive meningococcal disease is highest in infants and young children.
Case Report: Twin infants diagnosed two days apart with meningitis due to serogroup B are presented.
Conclusions: There has never been a report of concurrent meningococcal meningitis in twin brothers.
Background: With recent developments in the field of microbiology, an increasing number of yeasts and molds with the potential to cause infections in humans are identified every year. In addition to the challenges in identifying clinical isolates, there is limited antifungal susceptibility data available for Phialemonium species, leading to uncertainty in optimal treatment recommendations.
Methods: In this article, catheter-related bloodstream infections caused by Phialemonium curvata (previously Phialemonium curvatum ) in 3 immunosuppressed patients are presented.
Article Synopsis
- This study investigates if parents' vaccination against COVID-19 can reduce hospitalizations for children who contract the virus, focusing on data from the delta variant period in Turkey (August to October 2021).
- The findings reveal that children whose parents were fully vaccinated were less likely to be hospitalized, with a significant correlation between parental vaccination status and the hospitalization rates of their children.
- The conclusion suggests that fully vaccinating both parents can provide indirect protection for their children against severe illness from COVID-19, indicating a need for further research on different COVID-19 variants.
