A study was done on 794 new cases of leprosy among children (aged 0-14 years) detected and treated with MDT during 1990-1995 in Gudiyatham Taluk, South India. Incidence rates of leprosy and proportion of multibacillary cases increased with age, while bacillary + tuberculoid was most common. Over 80% had a single patch and most children were detected through surveys. Nearly 30% had history of ho...

Results Until 1988, nerve and skin biopsies were commonly performed for diagnostic purposes, after that with genetic testing being available all tissue biopsies declined in number and were only needed in difficult diagnostic cases or when genetic testing was not available. Nerve biopsy became relevant again with the appearance of atypical clinical presentations or late onset or sporadic patient...

Brain tuberculoma has previously accounted for up to a third of new intracranial lesions in areas endemic with tuberculosis, but is unexpected in the United States and other Western countries with improved disease control. Here we show the importance of considering this diagnosis in at-risk patients, even with no definitive pulmonary involvement. We describe a young man who presented with parti...

Disseminated coccidioidomycosis is a systemic fungal infection that is occurring more commonly and causes high mortality in patients with compromised host defense or debilitated. It is endemic in certain areas of North, Central, and South America. Increasingly, cases are being recognized outside the endemic area, due to travelers who have visited an endemic area. We experienced a case of dissem...

BACKGROUND Infection by the simian malaria parasite, Plasmodium knowlesi, can lead to severe and fatal disease in humans, and is the most common cause of malaria in parts of Malaysia. Despite being a serious public health concern, the geographical distribution of P. knowlesi malaria risk is poorly understood because the parasite is often misidentified as one of the human malarias. Human cases h...

Protozoans within the genus Plasmodium are well-known as the causative agents of malaria in humans. Numerous Plasmodium species parasites also infect a wide range of non-human primate hosts in tropical and sub-tropical regions worldwide. Studying this diversity can provide critical insight into our understanding of human malarias, as several human malaria species are a result of host switches f...

BACKGROUND Recent reports of Plasmodium vivax associated with severe syndromes and mortality from malaria endemic areas questions the "benign" course of non-falciparum malarias. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed data from patients reported to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention with a diagnosis of malaria parasite single-species infection between 1985 and 2011. Patients classi...
