Introduction: Extranodal Natural Killer (NK)/T-cell lymphoma (NKTCL) nasal type is a rare but well-known disease with poor prognosis. NKTCL is more prevalent in Asia and comprises about 7-10% of all non-Hodgkin lymphoma cases in this region. The characteristic clinical pattern of NKTCL is the destruction of the midline structures of the mid-face. Case Report: The present study examines a case o...

Sepsis is a life-threatening condition affecting one million people per year in the US in which dysregulation of the body’s own immune system causes damage to its tissues, resulting in a 28− 50% mortality rate. Clinical trials for sepsis treatment over the last 20 years have failed to produce a single currently FDA approved drug treatment. In this study, we attempt to discover an effective cyto...

sepsis is one of the most important causes of mortality in trauma patients. sometimes its diagnosis could be difficult, especially at early stages. it is clear that early diagnosis of sepsis, especially with serum markers, may decrease the rate of death in trauma patients. investigation to find a rapid as well as accurate serum marker indicative of sepsis seems necessary. seum antithrombin iii ...

sepsis is the most common cause of neonatal mortality. as per national neonatal-perinatal database (nnpd), 2002-2003, the incidence of neonatal sepsis in india was 30 per 1000 live births. signs and symptoms of sepsis are nonspecific; therefore empirical antimicrobial therapy is promptly initiated after obtaining appropriate cultures. the early manifestations of neonatal sepsis are vague and il...
