  • ANAPLASMOSIS HEALTH ADVISORY Date
    To: Albany County Health Care Providers From: Ellis Tobin, M.D., Clinical Professor of Medicine, Albany Medical Center, and Upstate Infectious Diseases Associates, Albany, New York Alan Sanders, M.D., Clinical Associate Professor of Medicine, Albany Medical Center, and Upstate Infectious Diseases Associates, Albany, New York Re: ANAPLASMOSIS HEALTH ADVISORY Date: July 21, 2011 Over the past 2 months, our Infectious Diseases physician colleagues have encountered an unprecedented number of hospitalized patients with anaplasmosis (formerly known as Human Granulocytic Ehrlichiosis). Anaplasmosis is a tickborne disease transmitted by the bite of an infected Ixodes scapularis tick, commonly known as the deer tick. This is the same tick that transmits Lyme disease and babesiosis and an individual tick can be co-infected with more than one organism. We have identified more than 12 confirmed cases from 5 counties in the Capital Region admitted to area hospitals, and most of these patients have been previously evaluated by their primary care physicians, urgent care practitioners, and emergency room clinicians. These unexpected cases that have proven to be anaplasmosis could understandably be misdiagnosed as a viral syndrome or other non-specific febrile illness. There are several key clinical and laboratory characteristics that should alert clinicians to this diagnosis. All anaplasmosis-infected patients experience fever, myalgias, arthralgias, and intense fatigue. Occasional associated symptoms include mild headache, nausea, and cough. Rash and frank arthritis are absent. These symptoms tend to be mild, but on rare occasion, sepsis syndrome with multi- organ failure has occurred in untreated patients. Anaplasmosis-infected patients requiring hospitalization tend to be older than 50 years.

  • A Study on the Usefulness of Band Form Count As a Marker of Severity in Dengue Fever
    Indian Journal of Pathology and Oncology 2021;8(2):225–227 Content available at: https://www.ipinnovative.com/open-access-journals Indian Journal of Pathology and Oncology Journal homepage: www.ijpo.co.in Original Research Article A study on the usefulness of band form count as a marker of severity in dengue fever 1, 2 Rajeswari Kathiah *, K Kala 1Dept. of Pathology, ESIC Medical College & PGIMSR, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India 2Dr Kamakshi Memorial Hospitals, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India ARTICLEINFO ABSTRACT Article history: Background: Dengue fever is a mosquito borne tropical disease caused by dengue virus. Clinical features Received 29-11-2020 of dengue fever are varied and ranges from asymptomatic to life threatening shock and death. A set of Accepted 08-02-2021 investigations is used in the monitoring of the disease apart from the tests done for confirmation. No single Available online 19-05-2021 test is the gold standard in the evaluation of dengue patients that can be used as marker of clinical severity and fatality. Aim of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of band form count as a marker of severity in dengue fever. Keywords: Materials and Methods: Peripheral smears are made for all dengue cases confirmed with Dengue Immunochromatography test for NS1, IgM and IgG. The cases were categorised in to clinically stable Severe dengue dengue fever patients and severe dengue based on their clinical findings. The band form count was done by Severe dengue hemorrhagic fever manual differential count. The correlation between band form count and clinical severity was assessed. A Bandemia total of 124 cases were studied that included 23 cases of severe dengue.
