Clinical profile and biochemical abnormalities in brucellosis: A cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Brucellosis is the commonest zoonotic disease worldwide and a common public health problem in Nepal. Because of the highly variable clinical presentation and non-specific manifestations, it remains a big challenge for clinicians from developing countries. Brucellosis has a tropism for the reticuloendothelial system, the liver is frequently involved. There is a paucity of data about the laboratory and clinical findings of human Brucellosis from Nepal. To address this knowledge gap, we conducted this study to find out the clinical profile and biochemical abnormalities of patients with brucellosis at a tertiary-care teaching hospital in western Nepal.

Methods

A cross-sectional study was carried out at Gandaki Medical College Teaching Hospital, Pokhara, Nepal. All p
