Abstract Background: Fecal microbiota transplantation against gut colonization using a multidrugresistant organism is a technique used to treat infections through normalizing the gut microbiota via fecal microbiota transplantation in patients with confirmed colonization by carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) or vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) based on a fecal culture test within the past one week. In this study, we aimed to determine the safety and effectiveness of this technique. Methods:

Abstract Latent tuberculosis infection refers to a state in which an individual is infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis but shows no clinical symptoms. The World Health Organization estimates that 23-25% of the global population has LTBI, which poses a significant public health challenge owing to the risk of progression to active TB. Diagnosis of LTBI involves tests, such as the tuberculin skin test
