Multibacillary lepromatous leprosy can mimic other dermatological conditions, delaying diagnosis. In areas with limited access to histopathology, the slit-skin smear (SSS) is an accessible tool that, together with clinical findings, can support the diagnosis and the start of treatment, while…
Age, fecal calprotectin level, toxin B PCR cycle threshold, immunosuppression, sex, and creatinine levels were identified as independent risk factors for developing recurrent CDI. Calprotectin levels and abundance of microbial genera in primary episodes of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) can act as…
