Studying the Co-presentation of Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis and IgA Nephropathy in a Young Female With No Significant Risk Factors.

Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and IgA nephropathy are among the most common glomerular disorders. FSGS is characterized by focal scarring affecting less than 50% of glomeruli while IgA nephropathy is characterized by the deposition of IgA in the mesangium of glomeruli. The presence of both of these diseases in a single patient is uncommon, but the presence of both in a young individual with no predisposing factors is exceedingly rare.

from Farm to Table: Isolation, Characterization, and Antimicrobial Resistance of from Commercial Broiler Supply Chain and Its Environment.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in poultry production chain is one of the major food safety concerns due to indiscriminate usage of antibiotics and the presence of pathogens such as which causes infections in various stages of production. In the present study, 182 samples were collected from commercial broiler supply chain, viz., three hatcheries ( = 29), three commercial broiler farms (CBF; = 99), and three retail meat shops (RMS; = 54), and used for isolation and identification of using three different selective agar media and a selective enrichment medium followed by PCR confirmation targeting the gene.
