Pulmonary involvement is an uncommon extraintestinal manifestation of salmonellosis. We describe a 30 year old man with mental retardation, presenting with salmonella gastroenteritis and bacteremia. An early pneumonia evolving in the clinical setting of severe kyphoscoliosis, suggests that hematogenous spread to the lungs may occur as a result of abnormalities of the chest wall.

Abortusequi ( Abortusequi) is the primary cause of abortions in equine animals, and can cause serious foodborne illness. Thus, effective biocontrol strategies are needed to decontaminate and control the emergence of foodborne diseases. In recent years, phages have been used as a new strategy for modulating foodborne pathogens and food safety.

Pathogenic bacteria trigger complex molecular interactions in hosts that are characterized mainly by an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) as well as an inflammation-associated response. To counteract oxidative damage, cells respond through protective mechanisms to promote resistance and avoid tissue damage and infection; among these cellular mechanisms the activation or inhibition of the nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is frequently observed. The transcription factor Nrf2 is considered the regulator of several hundred cytoprotective and antioxidant genes.

Objectives: This study aimed to identify the aetiological spectrum, seasonal distribution and antimicrobial resistance patterns of diarrhoeal diseases in Bhutan.
Study Design And Setting: The study used a cross-sectional, retrospective analysis of secondary data gathered through a passive, hospital-based sentinel surveillance for diarrhoeal disease across 12 hospitals, representing Bhutan's demographically diverse regions.
Participants: A total of 3429 participants' data of all age groups who presented with diarrhoea at sentinel hospitals between 1 January 1 2016 and 31 December 2022 were analysed.
Antibacterial properties of copper-tantalum thin films: The impact of copper content and thermal treatment on implant coatings.

Article Synopsis
- The study explores the antibacterial effects of tantalum-copper (Ta-Cu) coatings on titanium alloys to combat infections from orthopedic and dental implants.
- The coatings were created with different copper percentages and subjected to various thermal treatments, with the TaCu-2 sample (∼10 wt% copper, annealed at 600 °C) showing the best antibacterial performance.
- Optimizing the copper content and annealing temperature was found to be crucial in improving the antibacterial properties of these coatings, suggesting their potential for reducing implant-related infections.
