Comprehensive proteomics investigation of P. vivax-infected human plasma and parasite isolates.

Background: In recent times, Plasmodium vivax (P. vivax) has become a serious threat to public health due to its ability to cause severe infection with fatal outcomes. Its unique biology makes it resilient to control measures that are otherwise effective against P.

Identification of Highly Expressed Plasmodium Vivax Proteins from Clinical Isolates Using Proteomics.

Plasmodium vivax is the most geographically widespread species responsible for malaria in humans. Our study focused on identifying highly expressed parasite proteins using a shotgun proteomics approach. Parasites (P.

Proteomics of Plasmodium vivax malaria: new insights, progress and potential.

Introduction: Plasmodium vivax has accounted for an enormous share of the global malaria burden in recent years, along with Plasmodium falciparum. The wide distribution of P. vivax and recent evidences of severe and complicated vivax malaria across several endemic regions of the world suggest that this disease may have been more overlooked than benign.

Atypical subgaleal haemangioma causing calvarial erosion: a case report.

Background: Infantile haemangiomas are the most common soft tissue tumours of infancy and childhood, with an incidence rate of 4-10 %. These lesions commonly present between 2 and 10 weeks after birth and characteristically involute around 8-10 years of age. Most lesions occurring in the scalp are managed conservatively, with surgery reserved for those with complications.

Primary calcified hydatid cyst of the brain.

Cerebral hydatid disease is very rare, and in non-endemic areas like India, the occurrence is as low as 0.2% of all intracranial space occupying lesions. Calcification of the cyst wall indicates an even rarer subvariety, i.

Primary synovial sarcoma of kidney: A rare tumor with an atypical presentation.

Synovial sarcoma (SS) is a tumor of the soft tissues with a unique chromosomal translocation t(X;18)(p11.2;q11.2) that can be detected by polymerase chain reaction in tissue homogenates.

Pedicle subtraction osteotomy for rigid post-tuberculous kyphosis.

We studied 15 patients with healed tuberculosis of the spine and a resultant kyphosis. We selected only those with no neurological deficit and performed a wedge resection of the vertebra using a transpedicular approach. The wedge was removed from the apex of the deformity.
