Article Synopsis
- India has a high prevalence of enteric fever, and a study at St. John's Medical College Hospital analyzed differences in clinical presentations between adult and pediatric patients over one year.
- Out of 113 cases, young adults (16-30 years) and children (<15 years) made up the majority, with common issues like anemia and unusual symptoms including arthritis and repeat infections.
- The findings suggest that enteric fever presents with variable clinical features due to host and environmental factors, emphasizing the need for better surveillance and monitoring of the disease to improve treatment and prevention strategies.
