C difficile infection is costly—both in economic and human terms. Between 1986 and 2013, CDI was among the top 5 most expensive HAIs in the United States.3 The burden of CDI adds an estimated 3 to 20 extra hospital days per patient with an additional cost of $1 billion in the US.3 Avalere Health, a health care consulting firm, conducted a retrospective cohort study of more than 268,000 Medicare recipients diagnosed with C difficile and recurrent CIDs (rCIDs) from 2010 through 2016. The investigators evaluated health care resource utilization and all-cause, direct medical costs associated with the infection. They found that 1 in 3 patients with C difficile had a recurrence within 12 months, and more than half of the patients with at least 1 recurrence experienced 2 or more after that first episode. Patients with C difficile spent 18 days in the hospital on average compared with 13 days for those with no recurrence.4 Admission Rates Total all-cause, direct medical costs per patient o...

Sepsis, the body's life-threatening response to infection affecting about 1.7 million adults in the United States each year, can lead to multisystem organ failure with a high mortality rate. No targeted therapeutics against this condition have been developed in the last decades. Now, however, a team led by biomedical scientists at the University of California, Riverside, offers some hope for future treatment during sepsis awareness month. The researchers, led by Meera Nair and Adam Godzik in the School of Medicine, identified molecular biomarkers, pathways and immune cell dynamics associated with sepsis that could be therapeutically targeted to prevent the condition from leading to death. These blood cell biomarkers -- the protein CD52 in lymphocytes; and the protein S100A9 involved in inflammatory processes -- are present in all blood cells but highly expressed in people with sepsis. How these biomarkers change early in sepsis -- specifically, within the first six hours -- cou...

A 20 year-old-man presents to the primary care clinic with abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting for 7 days as well as right-sided headache, photophobia, phonophobia, and back pain. The patient reports subjective fever starting 2 days ago along with chills, runny nose, and intermitting blood in the mucous when he blows his nose. He notes mild lightheadedness and says he is dehydrated because he is unable to tolerate liquid or solids. He denies diarrhea or constipation. He tried over-the-counter cold and flu medications containing acetaminophen, dextromethorphan, and phenylephrine with no symptom relief. He denies recent travel or known contacts with anyone who was ill, is not currently taking any daily medications, and has no known drug allergies or history of abdominal surgeries. Physical Examination The patient's vital signs are stable. On physical examination, the patient shows tenderness to both light and deep touch at that left-lower quadrant and...

1 INTRODUCTION Sarocladium   kiliense is a soil saprophytic mold with worldwide distribution, which can infect humans and other mammals, sporadically. The clinical manifestations include mycetoma, onychomycosis, keratomycosis, pneumonia, and arthritis. Here, we present a disseminated infection due to S .  kiliense in a diabetic patient infected to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) from Isfahan, Iran. Sarocladium kiliense , formerly known as Acremonium kiliense , 1 is an omnipresent soil saprophytic fungus generally found in the environment such as cereal fields and the soils of grass lands, and sporadically infecting humans and other mammals. 2-4 The species of Sarocladium are morphologically very homologous and in the most of the clinical cases the causative agent is reported only as a Sarocladium / Acremonium sp., which dramatically decreases the value of the investigations. ...
