Introduction: Bacillus cereus is a gram positive bacilli found commonly in the soil and environment. It is a bacteria rarely associated with endocarditis.
Case History: Intravenous drug abuse, presence of valvular defects, pacemakers, immunodeficiency are some of the known risk factors for endocarditis. We present here a case series of two patients with endocarditis along with a review of the literature.
Conclusion: This is the first report of endocarditis from India to the best of our knowledge.

Passive earth pressure analysis considering hydraulic and mechanical hysteresis for unsaturated soil.
PLoS One
January 2025
Water Resources Engineering Department, College of Engineering, Salahaddin University, Erbil, Iraq.
This paper addresses the mechanical characteristics of a passive earth pressure problem taking into account water retention curve (SWRC) hysteresis. Both hydraulic (drying and wetting cycles) and mechanical hysteresis were considered. Parametric studies were carried out at various air entry values (AEV = 5-30 kPa), different wall frictions (δ = 0, 0.

The Role of Positron Emission Tomography Imaging in Breast Implant Illness.
Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open
January 2025
From the Section General Internal Medicine, Department of Internal Medicine, Amsterdam Public Health Research Institute, Amsterdam University Medical Centers, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Background: Explantation often alleviates symptoms in women with breast implant illness. However, persistent complaints in some cases may be linked to persistent silicone-induced inflammation from residual silicone particles. Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging could potentially detect this inflammation.
