Traditional regimens for the treatment of brucellosis are associated with significant relapse rates. The aim this study was to compare efficacy ofloxacin plus rifampin (OFX-RIF) versus doxycycline streptomycin (DOX-STR) and (DOX-RIF) in brucellosis.Two hundred nineteen patients were enrolled a randomized clinical trial; 28 cases withdrawn because they did not attend follow-up. Out 191 brucellosis, 64 received OFX-RIF, 62 DOX-RIF, 65 DOX-STR regimens. All assessed during period therapy...
Abstract The pandemic of coronavirus (COVID‐19) has significantly increased the admission patients with extensive complications, especially for respiratory support, to intensive care units (ICUs) worldwide. These also suffer from pressure ulcers (PUs) as another complication that occurs due length hospitalisation and acute conditions patients. Therefore, this study aimed evaluate incidence prevalence PU factors affecting it in COVID‐19 admitted ICUs. This cohort retrospective used registry...
The combination of sofosbuvir and daclatasvir is a potent, pangenotypic regimen suitable for mass-scale hepatitis C treatment, especially in resource-limited countries where newer, expensive combinations are not available. This has been widely tested on genotype 4. However, Phase III trials this other genotypes have cost prohibitive. With the introduction generic, low-cost daclatasvir, large-scale studies now possible.Sofosbuvir at 400 mg 60 were coformulated into fixed-dose (FDC) tablet...
Objective: To determine Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) as a cause of morbidity and mortality in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients by ELISA method to investigate toxoplasmosis-associated risk factors. Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted with 385 HIV/AIDS referred the behavior disease consultation center Kermanshah, Iran between May 2012 June 2013. Anti-Toxoplasma IgG IgM antibodies were measured using method. Also, relationship infection age, gender, education,...
Background: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients are also frequently exposed to the hepatitis B (HBV), due common routes of transmission, therefore, prevention results in decreased complications disease. Objectives: Since immune response HIV vaccination is less robust than that found healthy individuals, this study aimed evaluate effect a levamisole adjuvant on increasing response. Patients and Methods: In study, 89 patients, without history HBV infection or vaccination, were...
Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is a common infection in human immunodeficiency (HIV) patients and may accelerate HIV progression by rising viral load decreasing CD4 count. However, the available data regarding influence of HSV-2 seropositivity on individuals are inconclusive. Therefore, we aimed to determine seroprevalence naïve normal controls also investigate relation count with seropositivity. Subsequently, investigated association serostatus changing our subjects, after one year...
