Gossack-Keenan, K. L., & Kam, A. J. (2020). Toxic shock syndrome: Still a timely diagnosis. Pediatric emergency                       care, 36(3), e163-e165.

 This article addresses the TSS in detail. It defines the infection Toxic Shock Syndrome as a toxin-transferred disease that is acute and severe which is characterized by fever, hypotension, and multiorgan system involvement. The articles mention that the disease has become a great topic in the U.S due it being associated with high morbidity and mortality among young females who were previously health. The article also recalls that the cases of Toxic Shock syndrome became peak during early 1980s. A situation that was causes by an increased use of ultra-absorbent tampons. The incidences of menstrual TSS among young females   declined after improved patient education and tampon labeling. This article was written by Gossack-Keenan who is a researcher at the Department of Pediatrics, Division of pediatrics Emergency Medicine, McMaster University, Ontario, Canada. The article is relevant to the research topic as it clearly discusses TSS in detail and how it is contracted among individuals. 

Schlievert, P. M., & Davis, C. C. (2020). Device-Associated Menstrual Toxic Shock Syndrome. Clinical                                     Microbiology Reviews, 33(3). 

This article discusses menstrual toxic shock syndrome (mTSS). The article states that menstrual toxic shock syndrome is a household debated topic that is mostly found among mothers and their daughter. The article also states that, the research performed at the time and for the first time, exposed the American public as well as the biomedical community, in a major way, to understanding disease progression and investigation. This articles states that those studies resulted to the identification of the cause, styphyococcus aureus and the pyrogen toxin superantigen TSS toxn 1 (TSST-1), and many of the risk factors, for instance, use of tampon. It also states that those studies conducted led to warning labels on the outside and inside tampon boxes and more importantly, the uniform standards of worldwide of tampon absorbency labelling. The article is co-authored by Patrick M. Schievert who is a researcher at the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at Carver College of Medicine, University of Lowa, and Catherine C. Davis, a researcher at the Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology, School of Medicine, Creighton university. The article suits well in the research topic as it addresses menstrual Toxic Shock Syndrome in detail, discussing who it affects most and analyzing data from other studies carried out about mTSS. It also warns that TSST-1 producing S. aureus bacteria is predicted to be reemerging again and therefore physician’s awareness of this emergence and mTSS history should be heightened. 

Khajuria, A., Gallagher, M., Jones, I., & Atkins, J. (2020). Pediatric Toxic Shock Syndrome After a 7% Burn: A Case                  Study and Systematic Literature Review. Annals of Plastic Surgery, 84(1), 35-42. 

This article discusses the condition of Toxic Shock Syndrome. The article states that this infection is a life-threatening condition that occurs to children after sustain9ng burns. It also states that, this infection is mostly diagnosed retrospectively as most patients may not be able to get optimal treatment. The main objective of this article was to evaluate a severe and complex case of TSS at their unit and then followed up with conducting a preferred reporting for systematic reviews and meta-analyses-compliant systematic literature review, to help in identification of postthermal injury TSS and evaluate their presentation and management. This article was written by Khanjuria. The article is usefull to topic as it  children after sustaining burns. It also discusses on how TSS is diagnosed. 

Schmitz, M., Roux, X., Huttner, B., & Pugin, J. (2018). Streptococcal toxic shock syndrome in the intensive care                       unit. Annals of intensive care, 8(1), 88. 

This article is based on Streptococcal Toxic Shock Syndrome. It states the infection is severe complication that is associated with invasive infections by group A Streptococci. It also states that this condition has remained associated with high immortality in spite of medical progress in the care of patients infected with septic shock over last decades. The article advices that care of patients with streptococcal toxic shock syndrome requires early recognition of the disease and multidisciplinary management. The article also states that intensive and appropriate intensive support of failing organs, faster and rapid diagnosis of infectious sources, and proper surgical management are key factors that factors that will help decline mortality rate of TSS victims. This article is written by multiple writers which are Marylin Schmitz, Xavier Roux, Benedikt Huttner and Jerome Pugin.  The article is very relevant to the topic since it addresses the current knowledge of Streptococcal Toxic Shock Syndrome and discuss in detail the pathophysiology including its supportive and specific treatment as well. 

Olesen, V. L. (2018). Analyzing Emergent Issues in Women's Health: The Case of the Toxic-shock Syndrome.                      Women's Reproductive Health, 5(4), 226-234. 

This article analyses emergent issues in women’s health. It states that feminist researchers face problems due to the fact that women’s health issues and their implications are still ambiguous, however they significantly affect women’s health.  This article was written by Virginia L. Olesen a researcher from the Department of Social and Behavioral Sciences, School of Nursing, University of California, San Francisco. The article analyses the aspects of Toxic Shock Syndrome as an issue of women health.
