Abstract Background Novel corona virus, named COVID-19, has spread rapidly to other countries like Italy, Iran and South Korea affected all people, especially health-care providers. Therefore, due the rapid of disease in Iran, aim present study was explore psychological distress experienced by Iranian providers first few weeks virus outbreak. Methods The qualitative conducted on 18 exposed COVID − 19 using a content analysis method. Purposeful sampling used select participants continued...
Background: Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (CL) remains a significant health concern in Iran, particularly specific areas of Yazd province central Iran. This investigation was conducted with the aim presenting spatial and temporal modeling CL province. Methods: an ecological study, using data from department The for cases during 2004-2013 were extracted merged into Arc Geographic Information System (GIS) 9.3 software. Cochran-Armitage test, Choropleth Map, Hot-Spot Analysis, High/Low Clustering...
Background: Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (CL) is a highly infectious parasitic disease in Iran. Although various diagnostic methods are available, identifying sensitive and specific approach remains essential for effective treatment management. We aimed to compare microscopy, the Leishmanin Skin Test (LST), Direct Agglutination (DAT) diagnosis of human CL. Methods: Fifty samples were obtained from clinically suspected CL cases. The results conventional methods, including LST, DAT, then compared...
: Vaccination has had great success in history of medicine with both infectious and non-infectious diseases listed the realm vaccines. The significant decrease deaths from by development vaccines a huge impact on world health. Since 20th century, for preventive treatment purposes, there been an emergence new diverse range medicine. Also, are ongoing extensive efforts to increase efficiency performance reduce risks, which associated humans. Despite advanced effective recent decades, should be...
Acanthamoeba keratitis cause severe corneal infection and lead to poor vision blindness. This disease is caused by a unicellular amphizoic protozoon called spp. that present in different environments. study aimed represent the existence genotyping of patients with swimming pool water (SPW) Tehran Province, Central Iran.In this descriptive study, 56 clinical samples were collected from 30 pools Province. All examined based on morphological molecular techniques. The genotypes determined...
In recent years attention has been paid to develop effective adjuvant systems for DNA vaccines. Co-formulation of a gene delivery vector with an immunostimulator can enhance therapeutic efficiency vaccine.To investigate the efficacy chitosan as nanodelivery system antitumor effects human papilloma virus (HPV)-16 vaccine IL-12 protection against TC-1 tumor using animal model.The mice were challenged by subcutaneous injection cells and immunized intramuscularly thrice at seven-day intervals....
Co-infection of intestinal parasitic infections (IPIs) and Campylobacter spp. are public health problem in both developing developed countries. This study was conducted to determine prevalence IPIs among children with gastrointestinal disorders Tehran. In this descriptive cross-sectional survey, 283 fresh stool samples were collected from all individuals examined by standard parasitological methods including direct slide smear, formalin-ether concentration, trichrome staining, modified...
Toxoplasmosis is an opportunistic infectious disease in immunocompromised patients, including cancer whose detection by molecular and serological methods. A total of 106 blood samples from patients with different types were evaluated for anti- Toxoplasma gondii IgG IgM antibodies the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) parasite DNA nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR). These detected 41.51% (44/106) 0.94% (1/106), respectively, but T. antibody was not at all. results suggest that...
Cases of human visceral leishmaniasis (VL) are often found to have bacterial infections. Between 1997 and 2007, 60 cases VL were admitted the paediatric ward Afzalipour Medical Centre, which forms part Kerman University Sciences, in southern Iran. On admission, (39 boys 21 girls), each was confirmed by demonstration amastigotes a bone-marrow aspirate, had mean (S.D.) age 48.8 (44.4) months erythrocyte sedimentation rate 53.2 (34.2) mm/h. Twenty-five (42%) (14 11 girls) Urinary infections...
Aim: Plant extracts or plant-derived compounds are likely to provide a valuable source of new medicinal agents. In the present work anti-leishmanial activity methanolic Gossypium hirsutum, Ferula assa-foetida and Artemisia aucheri, was studied on Leishmania major promastigotes by colorimetric assay in comparison trivalent antimony compound (tartar emetic). Methods: L. were cultured at 24±1°C stationary phase RPMI 1640 medium, supplemented with 10% heat inactivated fetal calf serum (FCS)...
Background: Toxoplasmosis is a tropical disease that opportunistic in immunocompromised patients. Objectives: In this research, our goal was to assess the anti-parasitic effect of silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) based on ginger extract T. gondii tachyzoites. Methods: This study conducted effects various concentrations parasite using light microscopy. The MTT assay also evaluate toxic macrophage cells. addition, potential apoptosis by NPs assessed flow cytometry technique. Results: Based...
To conduct for modeling spatial distribution of malaria transmission in Iran. Records all cases from the period 2008-2010 Iran were retrieved control department, MOH&ME. Metrological data including annual rainfall, maximum and minimum temperature, relative humidity, altitude, demographic, districts border shapefiles, NDVI images received Iranian Climatologic Research Center. Data arranged ArcGIS. 99.65% focused southeast part These transmissions had statistically correlation with altitude...
Neospora caninum (N. caninum) and Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) are both obligate intracellular protozoan parasites, which have gained considerable attention because of their role in bovine abortion. This study aimed to detect anti-N. -T. bulk milk dairy cattle, Mashhad, Iran. The samples were collected from July 2014 June 2015 analyzed for -T.gondii antibodies using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Out 123 samples, 44 (35%), 14 (11.38%), 3 (2.4%) had N. caninum, T. gondii, mixed...
