Spontaneous reactivation of resolved HBV infection in the absence of immunosuppression: case report and literature review.

It is estimated that two billion people worldwide are infected with hepatitis B. In such cases, patients exposed to the virus may experience HBV-reactivation(HBVr), which is usually due to immunosuppression. It is not anticipated that spontaneous-HBVr will occur in the absence of immunosuppression in resolved HBV.

Isolation and Antibiotic Resistance Rates of complex in Mycolor TK System.

Objective: Tuberculosis (TB) is a public health problem. This study aimed to determine the growth rates and drug susceptibility levels of patients with complex (MTC) growth in cultures obtained and to compare the results with the growth rates and drug susceptibility levels found in our country and other countries. It also aimed to evaluate the results of supplementing classical methods such as Lowenstein-Jensen (LJ) with liquid TK MEDIUM and to determine the relationship between the growth rates obtained with both methods.

[Investigation of hsa-miR-1908 and hsa-miR-144 Expression Levels in Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Patients].

Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a tick-borne zoonotic viral disease. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), which play an important role in the regulation of gene expression, are involved in many processes essential for cell life such as development, differentiation, survival, apoptosis and aging. If miRNAs fail to fulfill their functions, they cause susceptibility to many diseases, including viral infections or cause the disease to be experienced in different clinical situations, such as severe or mild.
