ABSTRACT Post‐COVID‐19 mucormycosis, particularly the rhino‐orbital‐cerebral form, can be life‐threatening. This case highlights importance of maintaining high clinical suspicion, especially in patients with recent COVID‐19 history. Prompt diagnosis, aggressive surgical debridement, and antifungal therapy are crucial for successful management, even without traditional risk factors.

Background In the last couple of years, viral infections have been leading globe, considered one most widespread and extremely damaging health problems causes mortality in modern period. Although several are discovered, such as SARS CoV-2, Langya Henipavirus, there only a limited number discoveries possible antiviral drug, vaccine that even received authorization for protection human health. Recently, another virial infection is infecting worldwide (Monkeypox, Smallpox), which concerns pharmacists, biochemists, doctors, healthcare providers about epidemic. Also, currently no specific treatment available against Monkeypox. This research gap encouraged us to develop new molecule fight monkeypox smallpox disease. So, firstly, fifty different curcumin derivatives were collected from natural sources, PubChem database, determine capabilities Monkeypox Smallpox. Material method Preliminarily, molecular docking experiment conducted, majority substances produced expected binding affinities. Then, twelve picked up further analysis based on maximum score. After that, density functional theory (DFT) was used chemical characterizations highest occupied orbital (HOMO), lowest unoccupied (LUMO), softness, hardness, etc. Results The mentioned demonstrated scores greater than 6.80 kcal/mol, significant affinity at -8.90 though 12 molecules had higher (-8.00 kcal/mol -8.9 kcal/mol), better standard medications. dynamic simulation described by root mean square deviation (RMSD) root-mean-square fluctuation (RMSF), demonstrating all compounds might be stable physiological system. Conclusion conclusion, each derivative has outstanding absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, toxicity (ADMET) characteristics. Hence, we recommended aforementioned potential agents Smallpox virus, more vivo investigations warranted substantiate our findings.

The increasing incidence of Monkeypox virus (Mpox) and Marburg (MARV) infections worldwide presents a significant challenge to global health, as limited treatment options are currently available. This study investigates the potential several O-rhamnosides Kaempferol-O-rhamnosides Mpox MARV inhibitors using molecular modeling methods, including ADMET, docking, dynamics/MD simulation. effectiveness these compounds against viruses was assessed Prediction Activity Spectra for Substances (PASS) prediction. study’s primary focus is docking prediction, which demonstrated that ligands (L07, L08, L09) bind (PDB ID: 4QWO) 4OR8) with binding affinities ranging from -8.00 kcal/mol -9.5 kcal/mol. HOMO-LUMO based quantum calculations were employed determine gap frontier orbitals (FMOs) estimate chemical potential, electronegativity, hardness, softness. Drug similarity ADMET prediction assessments pharmacokinetic properties revealed likely non-carcinogenic, non-hepatotoxic, rapidly soluble. Molecular dynamic (MD) used identify most favorable docked complexes involving bioactive chemicals. MD simulations indicate varying types kaempferol-O-rhamnoside necessary successful validation maintaining stability complex. These findings could facilitate discovery novel therapeutic agents treating illnesses caused by viruses.

Abstract Introduction: Mucormycosis is an emerging fungal infection increasingly affecting COVID-19 patients, especially those with diabetes. Rhizopus oryzae thrives in high-iron conditions, causing angioinvasion and tissue necrosis. As reported 31%–50% of cases during COVID-19’s second wave, early diagnosis management are crucial to prevent severe complications fatalities. Materials Methods: We conducted a multicentre retrospective study analyse the clinicoepidemiological profile mucormycosis non-COVID-19 patients. Amongst 492 screened cases, 47 confirmed patients were included. Data collection focused on demographics, clinical features, comorbidities, risk factors, treatments diagnostic findings. Results: COVID-19-associated (CAM) them, 25 had history symptoms, while 15 showed no significant history. The aimed provide data CAM acute recent cases. Conclusion: rapidly spreading disease prolonged corticosteroids or This highlights radiographic emphasising diagnosis. A larger recommended.
