                        A28.9 Zoonotic bacterial diseases unspecified Most humans are in contact with animals in a way or another. A zoonotic dise   ase is a disease or infection that can be transmitted naturally from vertebrate animals to humans or from humans to vertebrate animals. More than 60% of human pathogens are zoonotic in origin. This includes a wide variety of bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa, parasites, and other pathogens. Factors such as climate change, urbanization, animal migration and trade, travel and tourism, vector biology, anthropogenic factors, and natural factors have greatly influenced the emergence, re-emergence, distribution, and patterns of zoonoses. As time goes on, there are more emerging and re-emerging zoonotic diseases. In this review, we reviewed the etiology of major zoonotic diseases, their impact on human health, and control measures for better management. We also highlighted COVID-19,...

           A49.2: Haemophilus influenzae infection, unspecified site Haemophilus influenzae  Infections Haemophilus influenzae , a type of bacteria, can cause many different kinds of infections. These infections range from mild, ear infections, to serious, like bloodstream infections. Doctors consider some of these infections “invasive.” Invasive disease happens when the bacteria invade parts of the body that are normally free from germs. For example,  H. influenzae  can invade the spinal fluid, causing meningitis, or bloodstream, causing bacteremia. Invasive disease is usually serious, requiring treatment in a hospital, and can sometimes result in death. The most common types of invasive disease caused by  H. influenzae  are: Pneumonia* (lung infection) Bloodstream infection Meningitis Epiglotittis (swelling in the throat) Cellulitis (skin infection) Infectious arthritis (inflammation of the joint) H. influenzae  can also be ...

                   A83.   2  Eastern equine encephalitis Eastern equine encephalitis   (Triple E) is an illness caused by a  virus  that comes from an infected mosquito bite. Most people who are infected have no symptoms, but some may develop fever, headaches, and vomiting. Symptoms occur within 4-10 days of being infected and most recover in 1-2 weeks. A small number will develop swelling of the brain and severe neurological symptoms that can be permanent. Triple E can also lead to coma and death. This condition is caused by a type of arbovirus and is transmitted by a mosquito which has bitten an infected bird or reptile. Diagnosis is based on the symptoms, specific findings in the blood, and occasionally by an  MRI  of the brain. There is no specific treatment for Triple E. It is managed by taking care of the symptoms. Prevention includes avoiding mosquito bites and controlling mosquito populations. S...

                                                          L98.0  Pyogenic granulomas   Pyogenic granulomas are skin growths that are small, round, and usually bloody red in color. They tend to bleed because they contain a large number of blood vessels. They’re also known as lobular capillary hemangioma or granuloma telangiectaticum. These skin growths mainly develop in children and young adults, although they can develop in people of all ages. They’re also fairly common in pregnant women. The hormone changes that occur during pregnancy can cause these growths to develop. A pyogenic granuloma starts off as a lesion with a rapid growth period that usually lasts a few weeks. It then stabilizes into a raised, reddish nodule that’s typically smaller than 2 centimeters. The lesion can appear smooth, or it might have a ...

M12.10 Kaschin-beck disease unspecified site   Kashin-Beck disease  (KBD) is an endemic chronic osteochondral disease, which has a high prevalence and morbidity in the Eastern Siberia of Russia, and in the broad diagonal, northern-east to southern-west belt in China and North Korea. In 1990's, it was estimated that in China 1–3 million people had some degree of symptoms of the disease, although even higher estimates have been presented. In China, the extensive prevalence peaked in the late 1950's, but since then, in contrast to the global trend of the  osteoarthritis  (OA), the number of cases has been dramatically falling. Up to 2013, there are 0.64 millions patients with the KBD and 1.16 millions at risk in 377 counties of 13 provinces or autonomous regions. This is obviously thanks to the preventive efforts carried out, which include providing millions of people with dietary supplements and clean water, as well as relocation of whole villages in China. However, re...
