TL;DR: Putative molecular markers of virulence (vacA, cagA, and iceA) of Helicobacter pylori strains isolated from 52 adult duodenal ulcer patients from West Bengal, India, are compared and it is concluded that there are geographic variations in the association of certain putative H.pylori virulence genes with clinical status.
Abstract: We compared putative molecular markers of virulence (vacA, cagA, and iceA) of Helicobacter pylori strains isolated from 52 adult duodenal ulcer patients from West Bengal, India, with those of H. pylori strains isolated from 48 adult healthy volunteers from the same region. On the basis of genotyping by PCR, we conclude that the H. pylori strains isolated from the two study groups were indistinguishable and that there are geographic variations in the association of certain putative H. pylori virulence genes with clinical status.

TL;DR: The findings illuminate major constraints encountered during home deliveries, including poor transportation, inappropriate environment for delivery, insufficient supplies and equipment, lack of security, and inadequate training and medical supervision, which may prevent the provision of skilled care.

TL;DR: Death rates from violence remained at the same level during the study period while death rates from other causes decreased, and young, not yet married women were a high risk group with respect to death from violence.

TL;DR: The TechLab E. histolytica- specific antigen detection test was both rapid and simple to perform, making it appropriate for use in the developing world, where amebiasis is most prevalent.

TL;DR: The concern remains that live oral cholera vaccines may be less effective among partially immune individials in cholERA endemic areas as pre-existing antibodies can inhibit live organisms and decrease colonization of the gut.
Abstract: Live, orally administered, attenuated vaccine strains of Vibrio cholerae have many theoretical advantages over killed vaccines. A single oral inoculation could result in intestinal colonization and rapid immune responses, obviating the need for repetitive dosing. Live V. cholerae organisms can also respond to the intestinal environment and immunological exposure to in vivo expressed bacterial products, which could result in improved immunological protection against wild-type V. cholerae infection. The concern remains that live oral cholera vaccines may be less effective among partially immune individuals in cholera endemic areas as pre-existing antibodies can inhibit live organisms and decrease colonization of the gut. A number of live oral cholera vaccines have been developed to protect against cholera caused by the classical and El Tor serotypes of V. cholerae O1, including CVD 103-HgR, Peru-15 and V. cholerae 638. A number of live oral cholera vaccines have also been similarly developed to protect against cholera caused by V. cholerae O139, including CVD 112 and Bengal-15. Live, orally administered, attenuated cholera vaccines are in various stages of development and evaluation.
