Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing K. pneumoniae are multidrug resistant organisms that have been increasingly recognized to cause infections with high mortality. The therapeutic options available for treating such infections stand severely compromised. The use of ceftazidime-avibactam in bacteremia and other infections by these organisms has been reported. We report a case of spondylodiscitis caused by KPC-KP diagnosed by pan-bacterial DNA screen and successfully treated with this relatively newer antibiotic. This report highlights the importance of the utility of molecular diagnostic tests in routine practice.
Coronavirus, an irresistible illness is brought about by serious intense respiratory condition (SARS-CoV-2) [1] and labeled COVID-19 because of visual appearance (under an electron magnifying lens) to sunlight-based corona (like a crown). The battle in opposition of COVID-19 has propelled scientists all over the world to investigate, comprehend, and devise new indicative and therapy strategies to complete this risk to our age. In this article, we look at how the PC vision network is battling with this peril by proposing new sorts of techniques, repairing viability, and acceleration of the current undertakings [2].An easiest way to transmit COVID-19 is through the air and physical contact, such as hand contact with an infected person. The virus inserts itself into the lung cells through the respiratory system and replicates there, destroying these cells. COVID-19 comprises RNA and is very difficult to diagnose and treat due to its mutation characteristics. The most well-known indications of COVID-19 incorporate fever, hack, windedness, dazedness, migraine, and muscle throbs. The virus is so perilous and can provoke the death of people with weakened immune systems. Infectious disease specialists and physicians around the world are working to discover a treatment for the disease. COVID-19 is currently the leading cause of death for thousands of countries worldwide, including the USA, Spain, Italy, China, the United Kingdom, Iran, and others [3].
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
