TL;DR: Cryptosporidium prevailed in HIV-positive patients with diarrhea, and interestingly, polyparasitic infections were demonstrated in chronic cases with a low CD4 count, therefore, regular antienteric parasitic prophylactic trials are recommended in for patients with lowCD4 cell count.

TL;DR: Existence of microorganisms in the oral liquid samples might explain the treatment complicacy of the diseased children and a routine microbiological study of such drugs is suggested.
Abstract: Objective: Present study attempted to determine the microbiological quality of the drugs commonly used for disease medication in Bangladesh. Methods: Forty (40) different types of oral liquid drugs (26 syrups and 14 suspensions) manufactured in different pharmaceutical industries of Bangladesh were microbiologically examined using standard cultural and biochemical methods. Results: All the samples except one syrup were found to be contaminated with total viable bacteria and fungi with a maximum load of 10 3 cfu/ml among which 4 syrup samples exceeded the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) limit (<102 cfu/ml). While the Gram negative bacteria were found to be completely absent in all samples, the prevalence of Gram positive bacteria including Staphylococcus spp. and Bacillus spp. were significant in both types of samples (the former in 24 syrups and 11 suspension samples, and the later species in 7 syrup and 4 suspension samples). Conclusion: Existence of microorganisms in the oral liquid samples might explain the treatment complicacy of the diseased children. A routine microbiological study of such drugs is thus suggested.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors attempted to identify and enumerate micro organisms spoiling commonly used cosmetics samples, including soap, shampoo, lotion, face wash, cream and petroleum.
Abstract: Present study attempted to identify and enumerate micro organisms spoiling commonly used cosmetics samples. Among 20 brands of total 6 categories of samples studied (soap, shampoo, lotion, face wash, cream and petroleum), almost all were found to be rigorously contaminated with total viable bacteria within a range of 10 3 – 10
