Background: Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) accounts for 85% of all reported tuberculosis cases globally. Extrapulmonary involvement can occur in isolation or along with a pulmonary focus as in the case of patients with disseminated tuberculosis (TB). EPTB can occur through hematogenous, lymphatic, or localized bacillary dissemination from a primary source, such as PTB and affects the brain, eye, mouth, tongue, lymph nodes of neck, spine, bones, muscles, skin, pleura, pericardium, gastrointestinal, peritoneum and the genitourinary system as primary and/or disseminated disease.

With increasing antibiotic resistance in gram-negative bacteria, including those causing Shigellosis, evidence of safety and pharmacokinetics data on new oral antibiotics is crucial. We aimed to investigate the safety and pharmacokinetic properties of an oral carbapenem, tebipenem pivoxil, along with it's ability to produce desired results in childhood shigellosis. This randomized pilot clinical trial was conducted at Dhaka Hospital, icddr,b in 2022 between May and September.

Objective: To elucidate the role of phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C (PC-PLC) in the antituberculosis (anti-TB) immune response mediated by dendritic cells (DCs).
Methods: In vivo, C57BL/6J mice infected with the Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H37Rv. Before infection, the mice were pretreated with the PC-PLC inhibitor D609.

Multi-drug resistance (MDR) in continues to pose a significant public health challenge, particularly in developing countries. Recent advances in genomics strengthen the surveillance of MDR-pathogens and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) mediators. However, genome-based investigations into resistome dynamics in are limited, specifically in Bangladesh.

a Gram-negative facultative intracellular bacterium, is the etiological agent of cat-scratch disease and also causes bacillary angiomatosis in immunocompromised individuals. Although the ability to promote vascular endothelial cell proliferation differs among species, variations among strains within remain unclear. angiogenic factor A (BafA) and adhesin A (BadA) have been identified as autotransporters of that are involved in endothelial cell proliferation.
