In late December 2019, a series of unexplained cases pneumonia were reported in Wuhan, China. On January 12, 2020, the World Health Organization temporarily named virus responsible for emerging as 2019 coronavirus. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to Covid-19 has rapidly spread around world, and while no specific treatment or vaccine been reported, mortality rates remain high. One suggested treatments cellular damage pathogenesis ARDS caused by coronavirus is administration...
Background: Addressing the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic remains a significant challenge for healthcare systems globally. Despite absence of proven cure, ivermectin has been proposed as potentially effective agent against it. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate therapeutic effects compared placebo group in non-critically ill confirmed COVID-19 patients. Methods: A double-blind, randomized clinical trial was conducted on 110 patients with moderate-to-severe (non-critical)...
Background: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has been a concerning public health issue even before the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak. However, impact of COVID-19 pandemic on AMR not comprehensively investigated. Objectives: The main objective this study was to investigate patterns before, during, and after pandemic. Methods: Data from hospital records cancer patients in hematology ward were obtained for cross-sectional using census sampling method January 2018 July 2023....
Prevention and/or management of the dysregulated immune response in patients with COVID-19 is expected to help treatment COVID-19. Boswellic acids (BAs) have great therapeutic potential because they anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. Here, we aimed investigate mechanism action a BA formulation, Inflawell syrup, which was previously shown be effective reducing disease symptoms who suffer from mild moderate Patients were treated either containing boswellic or placebo for 14 days....
The novel coronavirus has become a global threat and healthcare concern. manifestations of COVID-19 pneumonia in transplant patients are not well understood may have more severe symptoms, longer duration, worse prognosis than immunocompetent populations.This study proposed to evaluate the clinical characteristics kidney recipients.Clinical records, laboratory results, radiological characteristics, outcome 24 with were evaluated from March 20, 2020, May 2020.The most common symptom was...
Background: One of the most important causes complications and mortality in medical centers are nosocomial infections. Disinfection hospital surfaces is essential element for ensuring that infectious agents not transmitted to patients. Alcohol-based chlorine-based disinfectants have unfavorable properties. Given antimicrobial effect heavy metals such as silver recognized a viable option eliminating bacteria, exploration nanotechnology this context has been described study. Nanotechnology...
Abstract Case reports of CAPA emerged. In most the reports, predominant species is Aspergillus fumigatus . Uncommon are less reported. Due to poor clinical outcome with terreus , increasing this agent require attention.
Abstract Objective The impact of a hospital antimicrobial stewardship was determined on antimicrobial-resistant, Clostridioides difficile rates and the amount consumed in cancer patients.The intervention effects (ASP) plans 2017–2018 2018–2019 were respectively evaluated among hematology/oncology bone marrow transplant patients Ayatollah Taleghani University Hospital, Tehran, Iran. In this interventional quasi-experimental study, ASP repository utilized to capture four survey questions...
Background and Purpose: Oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC) is a fungal infection of the oral cavity caused by members C. albicans complex. Although africana, as part complex, considered to be mostly responsible for development vulvovaginal candidiasis, it may associated with wider clinical spectrum. Case report: This report described two cases diagnosed during receipt treatment malignancies. Conventional molecular tests were performed on samples collected from patients’ cavities. The test...
Background: Oropharyngeal candidiasis is a fungal infection in the mouth caused by Candida species. major problem among hematologic malignancy patients. Objectives: The present study was designed to identify and evaluate antifungal susceptibility patterns of spp. isolated from hematological patients with oral candidiasis. Methods: Samples were collected cavity 138 confirmed for oropharyngeal microscopic examination culture. Isolated strains identified ITS-PCR. Hyphal wall protein 1 (HWP1)...
Infections is yet one of the life-threatening complications hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The myeloablative and immunosuppressive conditioning regimens, which are administered before HSCT, dampen defense capacity recipients' immune systems. In this condition, opportunistic infections, especially viral infections such as cytomegalovirus (CMV) can be reactivated cause morbidity mortality in HSCT patients. Here, we aimed to find out any possible relationship between types...
Emphysematous pyelonephritis (EPN) is a rare and serious disease causing acute renal failure. Diabetes major risk factor for this infection.Herein, we present the case of 55-year-old female patient with diabetes EPN caused by Candida albicans. The infection was complicated endophthalmitis endocarditis. results antifungal susceptibility analysis showed that C. albicans resistant to fluconazole susceptible amphotericin-B itraconazole. Infection could be controlled followed itraconazole...
Fusarium species is an opportunistic mold that causes disseminated infections in immunocompromised patients. Given the high mortality rate of this infection, it important to make a definite diagnosis when encountering suspected cases.Herein, we presented 35-year-old man diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia prolonged febrile neutropenic period and ecthyma gangrenosum-like lesions, along fungemia fusariosis. The patient died despite receiving combination therapy, perhaps due nonrecovery...
Background: With the emergence and spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) globally, health care systems have faced biggest challenge in recent decades. Objectives: The present study aimed to identify risk factors associated with oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC) COVID-19 patients. Methods: total number confirmed patients was 218 (105 cases OPC 113 controls without OPC). questionnaire used this consisted demographic data, treatment strategy, clinical laboratory underlying diseases...
Acute pyelonephritis is among the most common bacterial infections. Options for initial treatment of include an extended-spectrum cephalosporin or a fluoroquinolone. This study aimed to compare clinical outcomes patients receiving ceftriaxone those who received levofloxacin acute pyelonephritis.In this randomized, open-label trial, hospitalized adults with were treated (1g IV every 12 hours) (750 mg daily) at least 7 days. Clinical and microbiological characteristics compared levofloxacin.A...
Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious illness that causes severe respiratory of varying severity. The was first reported in Wuhan (China) and caused the pandemic new millennium. Still, a global push on way to develop treatment for COVID-19. Arbidol (Umifenovir) orally administered antiviral agent approved prophylaxis influenza types A B, SARS, Lassa viruses Russia China. Objectives: current study aimed investigate effectiveness patients with mild moderate symptoms...
Background: Urinary tract candidiasis is known as the most frequent nosocomial fungal infection worldwide. Some of predisposing factors candiduria are extensive use broad-spectrum anti-fungal agents, diabetes mellitus, indwelling urinary catheter, corticosteroids and, immunosuppressive drugs. There some antifungal agents available for treatment candiduria. In recent years, resistance to has been increased. The aim this study was evaluate different Candida species (sp.) that cause and their...
