“…Incidence of varicella pneumonia is one in 400 cases of varicella [1] and well recognized risk factors have been identified such as smoking, male gender, pregnancy, immunosuppression, pulmonary obstructive lung disease and the severity of rash (> 100 spots) [1,2,4]. Systemic VZV infection should be considered when an immunocompromised patient develops pulmonary symptoms, even in the absence of cutaneous lesions [3].…”

“…Varicella pneumonia is the most frequent and severe complication of varicella infection in adults [1][2][3][4]. Benign but highly contagious childhood disease, in adults is uncommon but potentially life-threatening [5], associated with an mortality of 30% even higher (50%) in those with mechanical ventilation [2,3]. Transmission www.ijcasereportsandimages.com Neto et al 467 occurs via respiratory droplets or direct contact with lesions [2].…”

The fundamental approach for the confirmation of any terrestrial meteorite impact structure is the identification of diagnostic shock metamorphic features, together with the physical and chemical characterization of impactites and target lithologies. However, for many of the approximately 200 confirmed impact structures known on Earth to date, multiple scale‐independent tell‐tale impact signatures have not been recorded. Especially some of the pre‐Paleozoic impact structures reported so far have yielded limited shock diagnostic evidence. The rocks of the Dhala structure in India, a deeply eroded Paleoproterozoic impact structure, exhibit a range of diagnostic shock features, and there is even evidence for traces of the impactor. This study provides a detailed look at shocked samples from the Dhala structure, and the shock metamorphic evidence recorded within them. It also includes a first report of shatter cones that form in the shock pressure range from ~2 to 30 GPa, data on feather features (FFs), crystallographic indexing of planar deformation features, first‐ever electron backscatter diffraction data for ballen quartz, and further analysis of shocked zircon. The discovery of FFs in quartz from a sample of the MCB‐10 drill core (497.50 m depth) provides a comparatively lower estimate of shock pressure (~7–10 GPa), whereas melting of a basement granitoid infers at least 50–60 GPa shock pressure. Thus, the Dhala impactites register a strongly heterogeneous shock pressure distribution between <2 and >60 GPa. The present comprehensive review of impact effects should lay to rest the nonimpact genesis of the Dhala structure proposed by some earlier workers from India.
