Abstract The present study conducted a placebo‐controlled clinical trial to evaluate the impact of nano‐curcumin on inflammatory cytokines in mild‐to‐moderate hospitalized COVID‐19 patients. A total 60 patients were randomly divided into and control groups, then they received 240 mg/day for 7 days. manifestation laboratory parameters recorded days 0 seven. Also, SYBR Green real‐time PCR ELISA techniques implicated assessing mRNA expression IFN‐ γ , IL‐1 β IL‐6, MCP‐1, TNF‐ α serum levels...
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a major cause of chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HB vaccination an essential step in the prevention disease its consequent complications.Immune status medical personnel teaching hospitals Khuzestan not well known. Since these are usually at risk needle stick other high-risk events, some challenges exist infection control committee with regard to managing events. This study was conducted assess post-vaccination immunity...
Background: Mucormycosis is an uncommon life-threatening fungal infection. The major risk factors of this infection include uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, prolonged steroid therapy, persistent neutropenia, hematological malignancies, autoimmune disorders, trauma, burns and surgical wounds. Objectives: current study aimed to determine the epidemiology treatment outcome mucormycosis in Khuzestan province, southwest Iran. Methods: This cross-sectional was performed during a period 10 years...
BackgroundSevere acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 was first reported in December 2019 and it has spread globally ever since. The HLA system is crucial directing anti-viral immunity recent studies are investigating the possible involvement of genes on severity immune inflammation different phases COVID-19.MethodsIn this cross-sectional study, peripheral blood-extracted genomic DNAs 109 COVID-19 patients 70 healthy controls were genotyped for alleles HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-DRB1 loci using...
Pyogenic spinal infection continues to represent a worldwide problem. In approximately one-third of patients with pyogenic spondylodiscitis, the infectious agent is never identified. Of cases that lead organismal identification, bacteria are more commonly isolated from spine rather than fungi and parasites. This study applied universal prokaryotic 16S rRNA PCR as rapid diagnostic tool for detection bacterial agents in specimens suspected spondylodiscitis. Gram Ziehl-Neelsen staining were...
Recently Acinetobacter baumannii isolates have emerged as a problematic infectious agent that causes meningitis in neurosurgical patients. Colistin has been used successfully for the treatment of A. but colistin resistant reported worldwide.Two were cultured during five-day period from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples 20-year-old man with gunshot trauma abdomen, which had exited his back. Antimicrobial susceptibility tests performed. Multiplex PCR was performed detection bla OXA-23-like,...
Staphylococcus saprophyticus is the second most frequent community-acquired causative agent of acute urinary tract infection (UTI). Some strains S. can create biofilms, increasing their virulence. Once biofilms have been produced, antibiotic resistance exacerbated. Hence, aims present study were biofilm formation, structure and in causing UTIs women Ahvaz, Iran. Overall, 43 isolates recovered from UTIs. Antibiotic pattern production determined using phenotypic methods. Most resistant to...
The present study surveyed demographic and infection data which were obtained after open heart surgery (OHS) through patient's admission in Golestan teaching hospital, Ahvaz metropolitan city of Iran, taking into account the confirmed location infection, microorganism antibiotic susceptibility. occurrence among patients during 48 to 72 h hospital is definition Nosocomial infections (NIs) (Salmanzadeh et al., 2015) [1]. All them OHS chosen for this study. In paper, type catheter, fever,...
Background: Brucellosis as a zoonotic infectious disease is endemic in Iran and due to the variation clinical laboratory findings, its diagnosis often delayed. Objectives: The aim of this study was determine aspects Khuzestan. Patients Methods: Medical records 81 admitted patients with brucellosis were reviewed. took place at Razi Hospital, teaching hospital where Khuzestan are refereed. Clinical findings Diagnosis made by measuring Brucella antibodies presence suggestive brucellosis. Wright...
We report a case of chronic meningitis due to Mycobacterium chelonae. This organism is rapidly growing (RGM) and can be found worldwide in environmental sources such as soil, dust, water. M. chelonae an uncommon cause meningitis; the majority infections caused by this are localized cutaneous or soft tissue infections, rarely lung infections. The indistinguishable phenotypically, so we applied PCR based on rpoB gene sequence followed restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) for...
Background: Brucellosis is an endemic infectious disease in Iran. Prevention strategies are based upon identification of risk factors for brucellosis. Objectives: The purpose this study was to determine the principal brucellosis Khuzestan Province, Southwestern Patients and Methods: In retrospective study, medical records 162 admitted patients, 81 cases controls with other unrelated conditions, were reviewed. undertaken Razi Hospital, Teheran, I.R. Iran, a university hospital where infected...
Khuzestan and other parts of Iran were involved with Influenza A (H1N1) pandemic in 2009.The aim this study was to describe the prevalence mortality H1N1 Behbahan, a city Khuzestan, Southwest Iran.The population consisted cases influenza, hospitalized or referred health centers. Diagnosis virus infection based on rapid antigen testing (RT-PCR) nasopharyngeal swabs. Data extracted from epidemiological survey forms, including demographic clinical characteristics, laboratory results, risk...

The emergence of a highly pathogenic virus named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) accounts for pneumonia throughout the world. More than 7 million world population have been infected with SARS-CoV-2, and number deaths is increasing every day. This study aimed to evaluate frequency SARS-CoV-2 in hospitalized patients infection (ARI). During an outbreak nasopharyngeal oropharyngeal swabs were collected from 909 pneumonia, including 517 (56.9%) males 392 (43.1%)...
Background: Lectin pathway mediates complement activation, which is activated by many microorganisms. This study aimed at determining the serum levels of mannose-binding lectin (MBL) in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis, assessing its relationship to antiuberculosis treatment response, and comparing them a control group.
