An infant was admitted with suspected postinfectious malabsorption with watery diarrhoea, fever and failure to thrive. She had dehydration, acute kidney injury and metabolic acidosis, which were corrected with intravenous fluids and managed with empiric antibiotics and prophylactic antifungals. She also developedEscherichia colisepsis, meningitis and Candida skin infections during hospitalisation, which were treated according to the culture reports.

SUMMARYOf the millions who travel from the industrialized world to developing countries every year, between 20% and 50% will develop at least one episode of diarrhea, making it the most common medical ailment afflicting travelers. Although usually a mild illness, traveler's diarrhea can result in significant morbidity and hardship overseas. Precautions can be taken to minimize the risk of developing traveler's diarrhea, either through avoidance of potentially contaminated food or drink or through various prophylactic measures, including both nonpharmacological and antimicrobial strategies.

Methods: Escherichia coli (E. coli) was isolated from 4 piglets with diarrhea, their clinical signs were used to select the adequate homeopathic medicine China officinalis (Chin). Newborn piglets were divided in 4 groups (n=11 or 12): control group treated with the routinely used antimicrobial agent (ceftiofur 4 mg 1 ml/piglet for 3 days); one group with homeopathic medicine Chin 30 cH; one group treated with biotherapy prepared from locally isol

Abstract Introduction Febrile neutropenia (FN) is a frequent and potentially serious complication of cytotoxic chemotherapy (CT). It is defined as an oral temperature >38.5°C, or two consecutive readings of >38.0°C for 2 h, with an absolute neutrophil count <0.5 x 109/L, or expected to fall below 0.5 x 109/L. Biosimilar filgrastim (Nivestim™, Hospira Inc.) is a granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) approved in France for the treatment of neutropenia and FN resulting from myelosuppressive CT.

Summary Prophylactic efficacy of 100 mg of long-acting oxytetracycline (otc) given im to neonatal pigs within 12 hours of birth was evaluated in a swine herd. The herd had a history of increased neonatal mortality, diarrhea, foot abscess, and arthritis in nursing pigs. Two trials were conducted in which litters and individual pigs were the treatment groups of interest. In both trials, otc treatment failed to reduce mortality, diarrhea, or arthritis or the need for subsequent antimicrobial therapy (P > 0.05). Preweaning weight gains were not increased (P > 0.05) in treated pigs. However,
