Pericarditis is a rare manifestation during the course of brucellosis. This paper describes a case of pericarditis associated with brucellosis in a 31-year-old veterinary physician with a past medical history of testicular tumor and reviews the cases of pericarditis associated with brucellosis in medical English literature.

During 2014-2015, patients in northeastern Kenya were assessed for brucellosis and characteristics that might help clinicians identify brucellosis. Among 146 confirmed brucellosis patients, 29 (20%) had negative serologic tests. No clinical feature was a good indicator of infection, which was associated with animal contact and drinking raw milk.

Background: Hydatid disease, or cystic echinococcosis, is a parasitic infection caused by tapeworm. Pulmonary hydatid the second common manifestation of disease. We present patient who was diagnosed with recurrent cyst in lung and later brucellosis, which highly contagious zoonotic Case presentation: A 47-years-old male pulmonary disease after computed tomography (CT) chest-plain done. As had h...

Brucellosis is one of the most serious diseases that wreaks havoc on production livestock. Despite various efforts made to curb spread brucellosis, disease remains a major health concern both humans and animals. In this work, deterministic model developed investigate transmission dynamics control bovine brucellosis in herd cattle. The disease-free equilibrium point shown be locally asymptotical...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Brucellosis is one of the most common zoonotic diseases in Iran and human brucellosis is endemic in all parts of the country. Because of the difficulty in the diagnosis of brucellosis, particularly in endemic areas, the use of new and feasible diagnostic tests seem to be of great importance for resolving the diagnostic obstacles. We evaluated the usefulness of a new se...

OBJECTIVE Brucellosis is a prevalent disorder in children of developing countries. The aim of this study is to describe the epidemiology and long term prognosis of Brucellosis in Khorasan, Iran. METHODS This is a descriptive cross sectional study (from November 2003 up to February 2006), the subjects of which are composed of 82 patients (from Imam Reza hospital, Mashhad, and Health Center of ...

BACKGROUND Brucellosis is an inflammatory disease which may infect any organs or systems in the body. Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) is one of the most frequently used surrogate markers of platelet function. It reveals the presence of disease activity in many inflammatory diseases. Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is a parameter that measures variation in red blood cell size or red blood cel...

BACKGROUND Brucellosis continues to be an important source of morbidity in several countries, particularly among agricultural and pastoral populations. The purpose of this study was to examine if there is an effect on the incidence of human brucellosis after the implementation of an animal brucellosis control programme. METHODS The study was conducted in the Municipality of Tritaia in the Pre...

Brucellosis is a systemic zoonotic infection that can involve any organ or system in the body. It may present with a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations. Considering such myriad presentations, brucellosis should always be considered in the differential diagnosis of any febrile illness in a compatible epidemiological context. Here, we report a rare presentation of acute brucellosis with mu...

Modelling, 54: 299-320. We describe development of a simulation model representing bison (host)-bruceilosis (parasite) interactions within a natural resource management framework. We document three phases in...
