“…Patients with typhoid fever and cholecystitis show alterations in the total number of circulating white blood cells (WBCs). 23,24 However, the majority of participants in the study described here had total WBCs that were within the normal range at the time of enrollment. It remains to be proven whether this process manifests in vivo during typhoid fever and is the cause of the reported reduction in proinflammatory cytokine release.…”

Objective: Cholecystectomy is the surgical removal of the gallbladder. The gallbladder is often colonized by Salmonella during typhoid fever. The association between cytokine and virulence genes of Salmonella is not well known. The current study aims to identify the association between proinflammatory cytokines, TNF-α and IFN-γ, and two virulence genes, InvA and PagC, extracted from S. typhi isolates obtained from patients undergoing cholecystectomy. Materials and Methods: One hundred and fifty clinical specimens, including gallbladder tissues and blood, were collected from patients undergoing cholecystectomy at AL-Sadder Medical City and AL-Furat General Hospital/Iraq from December 2019 to September 2020. A Monoplex PCR technique was used to detect InvA and PagC, and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure serum levels of TNF-α and IFNγ. Results: From a total of 66 S. typhi isolates, the prevalence of InvA and PagC was (84.8% and 69.6%) respectively. Even after adjusting for potential confounding factors, serum levels of TNF-α and INF-γ were statistically significantly higher in PagC detected in S. typhi isolates compared to PagC not detected (p-value<0.001), but there was no significant difference between InvA detected in S. typhi isolates and InvA not detected (p-value > 0.05). Conclusion: The virulence genes of S. typhi, especially PagC, may be considered a potent inducer of proinflammatory cytokine secretion. Further studies are needed to present the patient‘s additional clinical course according to cytokine level.

The aim of this review is to focus light on the history of the human vermiform appendix from the morphological, anatomical, surgical, classification of the origin, types, blood supply aspects in order to understand the real function and summarized this information that positively impacts the clinical decision in case of appendicitis, the most popular surgical condition. Although the characteristic features of the normal and diseased appendix had been reported for many previous centuries, it was still the most common challenge facing every single day in the operation room. The appendectomy, the commonest surgical emergency procedure, may cause little confusion for the surgeons due to highly variable situations of inside the abdominal cavity. However, the recent imaging techniques have increased the surgeon's ability for crucial diagnosis of the diseased appendix. Besides the above-mentioned criteria, with its clinical features diagnosis and management, the author was deeply searched in many scientific databases including EMBASE,
