Pyrexia of unknown origin (PUO) is defined as fever above 38.5°C lasting for 3 weeks, of which at least 1 week has been spent in thorough investigation without a conclusive cause. Tuberculosis remains an important cause of PUO, particularly with the rising incidence of human immunodeficiency virus infection. It may strike virtually any organ in the body and can even mimic metastases especially ...

Introduction: Osteoarthritis (OA) can cause lifelong lameness regardless of treatment. Autologous adipose-derived stem cell (ASC) therapy shows promise in treating OA. Clinical use of allogeneic ASC therapy has not been investigated. The purpose of this study was to objectively assess safety and therapeutic effects of autologous and allogeneic canine ASCs on treatment of OA. We hypothesized tha...

Putrescine oxidase from Rhodococcus erythropolis NCIMB 11540 (PuO(Rh)) is a soluble homodimeric flavoprotein of 100 kDa, which catalyzes the oxidative deamination of putrescine and some other aliphatic amines. The initial characterization of PuO(Rh) uncovered an intriguing feature: the enzyme appeared to contain only one noncovalently bound FAD cofactor per dimer. Here we show that this low FAD...

In this study, the concept of online food purchasing is explored where consumers are not required to visit markets purchase their foods, especially during COVID-19 pandemic. Thus, purpose study investigate relationship between perceived e-service quality and related customer service outcomes in shopping context. The influence sustainable marketing practices terms (ESQ), usefulness reviews (PUO)...

Tuberculosis (TB) is often considered in the differential diagnosis of pyrexia of unknown origin (PUO) and miliary tuberculosis (MTB) a common cause of PUO. MTB is a potentially lethal disease if not rapidly diagnosed and treated, but remains a potential problem as the presentation may be nonspecific, and unusual associations may be overlooked. A high index of clinical suspicion, early diagnosi...

BACKGROUND Brucellosis is a widespread zoonotic infection. This disease is endemic in many parts of Asia, including India. Brucellosis is a major cause of pyrexia of unknown origin (PUO). Persons exposed to infected animals or contaminated animal products are at high risk. Seropositivity among animal handlers, veterinarians and dairy workers has been documented in India. Thus, the present study...
