A Review of the Association between Infections, Seizures, and Drugs
CONCLUSION: Due to changes in drug metabolism, co-administration of antiseizure drugs and antibiotics may lead to an enhanced risk of seizures. In patients with neurocysticercosis, cerebral malaria, viral encephalitis, bacterial meningitis, tuberculosis, and human immunodeficiency virus, the evidence-based study recommended different mechanisms mediating epileptogenic properties of toxins and drugs.PMID:38676494 | DOI:10.2174/0118715249288932240416071636 (Source: Herpes)

Dissemination, virulence characteristic, antibiotic resistance determinants of emerging linezolid and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus spp. in fish and crustacean
In conclusion, the emergence of linezolid-resistant -vancomycin-resistant enterococci recovered from Egyptian fish and shrimp, suggests that fish and seafood might participate a fundamental part in the emergence of antimicrobial resistance among humans.PMID:38677237 | DOI:10.1016/j.ijfoodmicro.2024.110711 (Source: International Journal of Food Microbiology)

The Great Imitator Masquerading as Autoimmune Hepatitis and Demystifying as Fulminant Syphilitic Retinitis
CONCLUSION: Acquired syphilitic hepatitis is rarely reported. Administering steroids potentially aggravated the infection. The characteristic features of placoid chorioretinitis and punctate inner retinitis connected the pieces of the puzzle together to the diagnosis of ocular and neurosyphilis. Intrahepatic cholestasis with negative serological panel of hepatotropic pathogens should raise the suspicion of non-hepatotropic pathogens especially syphilis.PMID:38669600 | DOI:10.1080/09273948.2024.2345290 (Source: Ocular Immunology and Inflammation)
