  • Dengue–COVID-19 Coinfection: the First Reported Case in the Philippines
    Case Report/Case Series Dengue–COVID-19 coinfection: the first reported case in the Philippines Angyap Saipen,a Bernard Demot,a Lowella De Leona Correspondence to Angyap Lyn Saipen (email: [email protected]) The rainy season in the Philippines is from June to October; this is when the number of dengue cases typically increases. In 2020 during this time, the world was facing the threat of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS- CoV-2) infection. Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and dengue viral infections have similar presentations and laboratory findings, including fever and thrombocytopenia, and there have been reports of coinfection with SARS-CoV-2 and arthropod-borne virus. Here, we report a case of SARS-CoV-2–dengue virus coinfection in the Philippines in a female aged 62 years, whose early symptom was fever and who was positive for SARS-CoV-2 and positive for dengue. Early recognition of such coinfection is important so that proper measures can be taken in the management of the patient. engue fever is a mosquito-borne viral infection fever (highest recorded at 39.5 °C), with associated found mostly in tropical climates, including headache (frontoparietal in location, rated 5/10 and Dthe Philippines.

  • Aplastic Crisis Caused by Parvovirus B19 in an Adult Patient with Sickle-Cell Disease
    Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical RELATO DE CASO 33(5):477-481, set-out, 2000. Aplastic crisis caused by parvovirus B19 in an adult patient with sickle-cell disease Crise aplástica por parvovírus B19 em um paciente adulto com doença falciforme Sérgio Setúbal1, Adelmo H.D. Gabriel2, Jussara P. Nascimento3 e Solange A. Oliveira1 Abstract We describe a case of aplastic crisis caused by parvovirus B19 in an adult sickle-cell patient presenting with paleness, tiredness, fainting and dyspnea. The absence of reticulocytes lead to the diagnosis. Anti-B19 IgM and IgG were detected. Reticulocytopenia in patients with hereditary hemolytic anemia suggests B19 infection.

  • This Book Is a Compendium of New Wave Posters. It Is Organized Around the Designers (At Last!)
    “This book is a compendium of new wave posters. It is organized around the designers (at last!). It emphasizes the key contribution of Eastern Europe as well as Western Europe, and beyond. And it is a very timely volume, assembled with R|A|P’s usual flair, style and understanding.” –CHRISTOPHER FRAYLING, FROM THE INTRODUCTION 2 artbook.com French New Wave A Revolution in Design Edited by Tony Nourmand. Introduction by Christopher Frayling. The French New Wave of the 1950s and 1960s is one of the most important movements in the history of film. Its fresh energy and vision changed the cinematic landscape, and its style has had a seminal impact on pop culture. The poster artists tasked with selling these Nouvelle Vague films to the masses—in France and internationally—helped to create this style, and in so doing found themselves at the forefront of a revolution in art, graphic design and photography. French New Wave: A Revolution in Design celebrates explosive and groundbreaking poster art that accompanied French New Wave films like The 400 Blows (1959), Jules and Jim (1962) and The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964). Featuring posters from over 20 countries, the imagery is accompanied by biographies on more than 100 artists, photographers and designers involved—the first time many of those responsible for promoting and portraying this movement have been properly recognized. This publication spotlights the poster designers who worked alongside directors, cinematographers and actors to define the look of the French New Wave. Artists presented in this volume include Jean-Michel Folon, Boris Grinsson, Waldemar Świerzy, Christian Broutin, Tomasz Rumiński, Hans Hillman, Georges Allard, René Ferracci, Bruno Rehak, Zdeněk Ziegler, Miroslav Vystrcil, Peter Strausfeld, Maciej Hibner, Andrzej Krajewski, Maciej Zbikowski, Josef Vylet’al, Sandro Simeoni, Averardo Ciriello, Marcello Colizzi and many more.

Hier werden neue Ansätze für Diagnose, Prävention und Therapie von Herz-Kreislauf- und Stoffwechselerkrankungen, Krebs sowie neurologischen Erkrankungen entwickelt und zeitnah am Patienten eingesetzt. Sie sind eingelanden, um uns beizutreten. Bewerben Sie sich! An otherwise healthy 10-year-old girl presented to the primary care clinic with a 10-day history of multiple itchy papules on the soles of her feet and on her toes. The lesions had black dots in the center and were painful. Two weeks earlier, the family had traveled to rural Brazil. During that time, the patient had played in a pigsty without wearing shoes. Sand fleas were removed from multiple lesions. What is the most likely diagnosis? Coxsackievirus infection Furuncular myiasis Foreign body granulomas Tungiasis Scabies infestation Correct! The correct answer is tungiasis. Tungiasis is a skin infestation caused by the sand flea Tunga penetrans, an ectoparasite that is found throughout tropical and subtropical parts of the world. Treatment included flea removal and local wound care. Die Myiasis (nach griechisch μυῖα myia = „Fliege“) oder auch Fliegenmadenkrankheit ist der Befall von Lebewesen mit den Larven (Maden) von Fliegen, welche von dem Gewebe, den Körperflüssigkeiten oder dem Darminhalt des Wirtes leben. Sie ist bei Menschen in Mittel- und Südamerika sowie in Regionen mit tropischen oder subtropischem Klima verbreitet. In der Tiermedizin kommt ein Fliegenmadenbefall auch in Europa häufiger vor. Betroffen sind vor allem stark geschwächte oder anderweitig erkrankte Tiere, die nicht mehr in der Lage sind, sich selbst zu putzen.
