Bacillus anthracis strain SPV842_15 was isolated from bovine fetus, while B. anthracis strain Brazilian vaccinal was recovered from a commercial vaccine. We report here the genome sequences of both strains. The SPV842_15 genome is composed of a single circular chromosome with a length of 5,228,664 base pairs, and comprises 5911 coding sequences. In turn, the Brazilian vaccinal genome remains in...

The immunological effectiveness of the Middletown oral poliovirus vaccination program was determined by testing preand post-vaccinal neutralizing antibody levels in blood specimens from a selected group of children, representing about five per cent of the school children and 10 per cent of the preschool vaccinees. The present paper is concerned with the results of these tests in terms of the an...

Hypertrophic osteodystrophy (HOD) is a major manifestation of the hyper-inflammatory syndrome, and causes high fever, pain and lameness associated with swelling of the growth plates in the femur and humerus. This is typically seen in one or two puppies in a genetically susceptible litter, soon after they receive multivalent vaccination, although it also can occur after monovalent vaccination. O...

Since the effective start of large vaccination campaigns against Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) pandemic, case reports are rising concerning unilateral axillary lymphadenopathies highly uptaking FDG PET/CT scans. These can be a source false positive for in post-vaccination context. We report here 59-year-old womanfor whom has been performed as part initial extension assessment recurrence lef...

Chikungunya is an arthropod born acute febrile arbo viral illness characterized by acute severe polyarthralgia. During last few years there has been scattered out breaks with associated neurological complications in India. Here we report a case of post chikungunya reversible demyelinating encephalitis who presented with vertigo, dysarthria and ataxia. There was complete clinical as well as radi...

Encephalitis is a disease characterised by inflammation of the encephalon. An important element to take into account in this pathology that it has several causes, among which viral and metabolic are most important. This clinical picture generally manifests itself with headache, altered mental state, seizures, focal signs, movement disorders, some cases also manifested meningeal or cortical depe...

Investigators at August Pi Sunyer Biomedical Research Institute and University of Barcelona performed a prospective surveillance study in 14 patients with immune-mediating relapsing symptoms of post-herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE).

In this study the restriction endonuclease analysis (REA) technique was used for the comparison of field isolates and vaccinal strain of Pasteurella multocida using Hha-I enzyme. On the basis of DNA finger prints, extent of homology among the field isolates and the vaccinal strain was observed. The study has provided the clear evidence that eight isolates of P. multocida used were serologically...
