Rhino-orbito-cerebral mucormycosis (ROCM) is a rare disease with acute and fulminant manifestation. This infection associated high morbidity mortality rates. Herein, we reviewed the manifestations, underlying conditions, medical treatments, surgical interventions in ROCM patients admitted to tertiary referral center northern Iran over seven-year period.In retrospective analysis, 15 cases of were identified from 2007 2013 Bu Ali Sina Hospital, Sari, Iran. All clinically diagnosed confirmed by...
Background: Candida species are a leading cause of fungal infections worldwide. Candidiasis, the disease caused by Candida, represents significant public health concern globally. albicans is most common causative agent, responsible for 50 - 90% invasive candidiasis cases. employs various virulence factors to adhere to, invade host tissues, and disease. Objectives: This study aimed detect compare C. albicans, including hydrophobicity, biofilm formation, ergosterol content, secretory enzymes,...
This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of otomycosis and aetiological agents in Khouzestan province, south-west Iran.This cross-sectional examined cultured 881 swabs from suspected external otitis cases, collected throughout province. Fungal were identified by slide culture complementary tests when necessary.The mean patient age was 37 years. The 20-39 year group had highest otomycosis: 293 comprising 162 (55.3 per cent) women 131 (44.7 men. seasonal distribution cases was: summer,...
Summary Accurate identification of dermatophyte species is important both for epidemiological studies and implementing antifungal treatment strategies. Although nucleic acid amplification‐based assays have several advantages over conventional mycological methods, a major disadvantage their high cost. The aim this study was to develop rapid accurate real‐time PCR ‐based high‐resolution melting ( HRM ) assay differentiation the most common species. oligonucleotide primers were designed amplify...
Cryptococcus neoformans is an opportunistic human pathogen that causes cryptococcosis, a life-threatening infection usually manifested as menigeoencephalitis mainly in immunocompromised patients. The objective of this study was to evaluate the presence Ahwaz, Iran. Materials and methods: Sixty-five samples pigeon droppings were collected from 10 different regions Ahwaz. Each sample suspended 1:10 saline solution then cultured Sabouraud's dextrose agar medium including chloramphenicol....
Candidaalbicans is the most common causative agent of candidiasis. Candidiasis management dependent on immune status host, severity disease, and choice antifungal drug. Antifungals, specifically triazoles, are widely administered for treatment invasive fungal infections. Herein, we aimed to evaluate invitro susceptibility C.albicans isolates fluconazole (FLZ), itraconazole (ITZ), voriconazole (VRZ), amphotericin B (AMB), Caspofungin (CAS).A total 44 clinical strains were collected from 36...
Candida glabrata is a pathogenic yeast with several unique biological features and associated an increased incidence rate of candidiasis. It exhibits great degree variation in its pathogenicity antifungal susceptibility.The aim the present study was to evaluate vitro susceptibilities following six drugs against clinical C. strains: amphotericin B (AmB), ketoconazole (KTZ), fluconazole (FCZ), itraconazole (ITZ), voriconazole (VCZ), caspofungin (CASP).Forty strains were investigated using DNA...
Non-adherence of patients with vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) to treatment recommendations leads failure and recurrence infection. Therefore, this qualitative study was conducted identify barriers facilitators observance among women afflicted candidiasis.This through 26 in-depth unstructured interviews 24 2 gynecologists using purposeful sampling maximum variation in Ahvaz, southwest Iran. Interviews were person at health centers the gynecologist's offices. MAXQDA 10 software conventional...
Background: Candida albicans is an organism most often associated with serious fungal infection, which has recently shown increased resistance to commercial antifungal agents. As a result, using medicinal plants as alternative method address health problems received particular attention in developing countries. Objective: This study aimed examine the anti-Candidial potential of extracts from Zataria multiflora Boiss (ZMB), Stachys acerosa (SAB), Prangos ferulacea (L.) Lindl (PFL), Tanacetum...
Abstract Background and objectives Nowadays, candidiasis due to Candida species have become a worldwide health problem. The study aimed detect compare the prevalence of virulence factors albicans (hydrophobicity, biofilm formation, ergosterol content, secretory enzymes) isolated from clinical environmental samples. Materials Methods A total 105 165 samples suspected were collected Imam Khomeini Hospital in Ahvaz, Iran. Isolates assessed for five putative factor production (ergosterol cell...
Abstract Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer. The activity of Sonic hedgehog pathway increased in patients with colorectal bFGF and Cyclopamine could act as Shh inhibitors. But, by considering dual role on growth cells, this study aimed to evaluate simultaneous effect Cyclopamine, apoptosis HT-29 cell line. Cell viability was performed using MTT assay. rate measured Annexin V-FITC/PI flow cytometry. Clonogenic assay performed. gene expression investigated Real-Time PCR method....
