 A case of severe pneumonia caused by legionella long beach combined with legionella pneumophila in children by Dong Wei, Shi Changsong in Journal of Clinical Case Reports Medical Images and Health Sciences Abstract The cases of severe pneumonia caused by legionella long beach combined with legionella pneumophila in children are very rare in China, with critical illness and high fatality rate. For children with severe pneumonia caused by the combined infection of these two legionella bacteria, azithromycin and levofloxacin have better anti-legionella treatment effect than single treatment effect. Introduction Legionella pneumophila is a pathogen widely found in artificial water environment conditions and is one of the main pathogens causing legionella pneumophila pneumonia, with a mortality rate of up to 30%  [1] . Legionella long beach is mainly transmitted through fertile soil and compost. Currently, reported cases of legionella long beach are very rare in China, but it i...

 Isolated Hepatitis B Surface Antigen Positivity Following Vaccination Against Coronavirus Disease A report of two cases by Manar Al Sanaa AlZeedi in Journal of Clinical Case Reports Medical Images and Health Sciences  Abstract Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)—a respiratory illness caused by a recently identified, highly transmissible virus known as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)—has had considerable global morbidity and mortality. 1,2  As a result, a number of anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccines have been developed with unprecedented speed. Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) is the most common marker of acute HBV infection and is detectable between 1–9 weeks of exposure to the virus, with decreasing HBsAg concentrations indicative of resolving viremia. Herein, we report two cases of isolated HBsAg positivity after COVID-19 vaccination in the absence of other HBV markers, symptoms, risk factors, or recent vaccination. The test turn to ne negative ...

 Kussmaul’s Sign- In a patient with Severe PAH by Javaid Ahmad Dar in  Journal of Clinical Case Reports Medical Images and Health Sciences Case Report The patient is a 33 years old male who had a history of acute pulmonary embolism three and a half years back.

 Bamboo vinegar for seborrheic keratosis: A case report by Yukitoshi Izumi in Journal of Clinical Case Reports Medical Images and Health Sciences Abstract Although it is unclear what causes seborrheic keratosis, infection with Malassezia furfur (pityrosporum ovale) could be involved in the pathogenesis. Thus, manipulation of Malassezia furfur could be therapeutic for some patients with seborrheic keratosis. Because bamboo vinegar reportedly has fungicidal activity, it is possible that bamboo vinegar could have beneficial effects.  Here we report a case of a 52 year old woman who administered topical bamboo vinegar for aggravation of seborrheic keratosis on her cheek.  Aggravation stopped immediately and legions flaked off and became less pigmented in months. Recurrence was not noticed after cessation of the treatment. Introduction Seborrheic keratosis is a benign epidermal skin tumor.  Although seborrheic keratosis is often called senile wart, it is prevalent acros...

 Amphibious Vehicles for Disaster Relief and Emergency Medicine by Richard Coe in Journal of Clinical Case Reports Medical Images and Health Sciences   Abstract Keywords:  Amphibious, Disaster relief, Emergency medicine.   Abbreviation:  NGO: nongovernmental organization Dear Editor, With the increasing frequency and severity of extreme weather events, there is a compelling case to be made for the use of amphibious vehicles in natural as well man-made disasters and emergencies. Applications range from the supply of humanitarian logistics, water production, and in particular – mobile medical units. These could form a very efficient first response capability for prehospital and Emergency Medical Services and enable access to areas cut off by flooding, assist coastal and island communities, and negotiate natural boundaries such as rivers or where bridges have been compromised. Current amphibious response capacity is primarily conducted by military units which is ...

 Movement is life proper movement is active longevity by Gusyev Valentyn in Journal of Clinical Case Reports Medical Images and Health Sciences The increase in human life expectancy is usually attributed to the achievements of medicine. At the same time, it is not mentioned that Peter 1 fought with 300-year-old elders, that age in those days was measured in circles at 145 years. Gerontology even today says that the resource of the heart is determined by 300 years, and the liver by 600 years. Medicine is also silent about the fact that in the part by which life expectancy has increased, most people are no longer able to work, they cannot move independently. But it is precisely the movement, the work of the venous-muscular pumps of the legs that maintains blood circulation in the system of small and large blood circulation in the human body. Our alleged monkey ancestors do not have such a pump. Their life expectancy is limited to only tens of years. They can't even think like humans...
