Emergence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a major healthcare threat. Apparently, the novel (SARS-CoV-2) armed by special abilities to spread and dysregulate immune mechanisms. The likelihood oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC) development in COVID-19 patients with list attributable risk factors for oral infections has not yet been investigated.We here aim investigate prevalence, causative agents antifungal susceptibility pattern OPC Iranian patients.A total 53 hospitalised were...
Construction industry is among the most hazardous industries, and needs a comprehensive simple-to-administer tool to continuously assess promote its health safety performance.Through study of various standard systems (mainly Health, Safety, Environment Management System; Occupational Health Safety Assessment Series 180001; British Standard, occupational management systems-Guide 8800), seven main elements were determined for desired framework, then, by reviewing literature, factors affecting...
Clonal expansion of fluconazole resistant (FLZ-R) Candida parapsilosis isolates is increasingly being identified in many countries, while there no study exploring the antifungal susceptibility pattern, genetic diversity, and clinical information for Iranian C. blood isolates. species complex (n=98) were recovered from nine hospitals located three major cities, by MALDI-TOF MS, their relatedness was examined AFLP fingerprinting. Antifungal testing followed CLSI-M27-A3 ERG11, MRR1 hotspots 1/2...
In comparison with other industries, the construction industry still has a higher rate of fatal injuries, and thus, there is need to apply new innovative approaches for preventing accidents promoting safe conditions at sites.In this study, effectiveness incentive system-the surprising system-was assessed. One year after implementation system, behavioral changes employees respect seven types activities were observed.The results study showed that significant relationship between system safety...
Despite the increasing occurrence of Candida orthopsilosis and metapsilosis in clinical settings, little is known about their microbiological properties. Herein, we conducted a national retrospective study (2014-2019) from multiple centers Iran. Among 1,770 isolates collected, identified 600 parapsilosis species complex isolates. Isolate identification was performed by 9-plex PCR, matrix-assisted laser desorption-time flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS), rDNA sequencing, antifungal...
Introduction This study was intended to investigate the clinical features and predisposing factors of fungal keratitis (FK), as well molecular identification antifungal susceptibility causative agents in Tehran, Iran. Methods cross-sectional carried out from April 2019 May 2021. All fungi isolates were identified using conventional methods confirmed by DNA-PCR-based assays. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time flight (MALDI-TOF) used identify yeast species. Minimum inhibitory...
To elucidate the clinical and microbial epidemiology of otomycosis in Isfahan, Iran.From January 2016 to 2017 all patients clinically suspected at Al-Zahra Hospital, Iran were recruited. Specimens taken using sterile swabs by an otorhinolaryngologist subjected culture microscopy potassium hydroxide Giemsa stain. Isolated fungi identified based on morphological molecular characteristics.Otomycosis was confirmed 97/120 (80.8 %). Females (72.2 %) aged 30-39 years (33 more commonly affected than...
Due to the increasing resistance of various Candida species azole drugs, particularly fluconazole, it would be significant importance look for alternative therapies. The aim this study was investigate antifungal activity capric acid and its in vitro interactions with nystatin fluconazole against isolates. A total 40 isolates (C. albicans, 36; C. kefyr, 2; tropicalis, 1; glabrata, 1) collected from oral cavity neonates oropharyngeal candidiasis a reference strain albicans (ATCC 10231) were...
Background and Purpose: Dermatophytosis is one of the most common infections skin, hair, nails, caused by a group keratinophilic fungi known as dermatophytes.Species identification these great significance from epidemiological therapeutic points view.The objective present study was to investigate dermatophytosis its causative agents in patients, referring Central Mycology Laboratory Yazd University Medical Sciences, Yazd, Iran.Materials Methods: In total, 139 clinically suspected cases were...
The presence of Candida yeasts in urine, known as candiduria, is an indicator infection or colonization the urinary tract by species. This condition diabetic patients can be hazardous due to diminished immune system response. objective this study was investigate incidence candiduria and identify its causative agents. Furthermore, demographic laboratory (HbA1c, urine glucose pH, culture colony count, fasting blood sugar) data their possible associations with were investigated.This...
