Russell-Silver Syndrome With Growth Hormone Deficiency.

Russell-Silver syndrome (RSS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), postnatal growth failure, and distinctive dysmorphic features. We present a case of a four-year-old male presenting with a slow growth velocity with a history of IUGR and surgical interventions, exhibiting classic RSS features. Laboratory investigations revealed low insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and low growth hormone (GH) levels on stimulation tests.

Study of Colistin Resistant Gram Negative Organism in Hospitalized Patients: A Retrospective Study.

Background: Intensive care units have become hotspots for antimicrobial resistance, particularly concerning colistin resistance, posing a threat of untreatable infections.

Aim: This study aims to analyze the epidemiological and clinical aspects of patients carrying colistin-resistant organisms. It focuses on identifying risk factors, the microbiological profile, susceptibility patterns, and treatment outcomes.
