Factors associated with antibiotic use, resistance and safety have been well recognized worldwide in the literature. Nevertheless, only few studies conducted Jordan this area. The aim of study was to assess knowledge, behavior attitude toward antibiotics use among adult Jordanians. represents a cross sectional survey using an interviewer administered questionnaire. Data collected from random sample 1141 Jordanians, recruited at different settings, regarding their knowledge about...
Escherichia coli occurs naturally in the human gut; however, certain strains that can cause infections, are becoming resistant to antibiotics. Multidrug-resistant E. produce extended-spectrum β lactamases (ESBLs), such as CTX-M enzymes, have emerged within community setting an important of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and bloodstream may be associated with these community-onsets. This is first report testing antibiotic resistance-modifying activity nineteen Jordanian plants against...
The pharmacy profession has significantly changed over the years. Pharmacy students' perceptions of their coursework and future career aspirations may vary in relation to gender. present study explored motivations students enter school, satisfaction with academic program, plans after graduation, about Data were collected using a cross-sectional descriptive validated questionnaire built by research team. was conducted at twelve public private universities offering programs. In total, 918 have...
Background and Aim: Interest in plants with antimicrobial properties has been revived due to emerging problems associated using antibiotics eradicate Helicobacter pylori. Accordingly, this study aims assess the antibacterial effects of Punica granatum possible synergistic effect its extract along metronidazole against H. Materials Methods: Pomegranate peel ethanol extracts (PPEE) was tested a control strain pylori (NCTC 11916) vitro vivo female Wistar rats. Moreover, PPEE combination vitro....
Abstract Background The ongoing spread coronavirus disease worldwide has caused major disruptions and led to lockdowns. Everyday lifestyle changes antenatal care inaccessibility during the 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic have variable results that affect pregnancy outcomes. This study aimed assess alterations in stillbirth, neonatal-perinatal mortality, preterm birth, birth weight COVID-19 national lockdown. Methods We used data from Jordan stillbirths neonatal death surveillance system compare...
This study assesses Jordanian community pharmacists' readiness and willingness to deliver vaccination services in their practice sites. Between February April 2021, a self-administered online questionnaire was distributed via social media, WhatsApp messages, personal communication. The targeted practicing pharmacies. Descriptive inferential data analysis carried out. A total of 403 pharmacists participated the study. Almost 146 (36%) reported vaccinating patients However, assessment revealed...
Abstract Introduction Antimicrobial stewardship programs are intended to improve patient outcomes, reduce side effects, bacterial resistance, and costs. Thus, it is important assess their impact on an ongoing basis. We aimed the of antimicrobial program in two different hospitals which used approaches. Methodology This a retrospective observational study private [4088 records] Amman- Jordan. Antibiotic susceptibility using antibiogram results, consumption antibiotics Defined Daily Dose,...
The study's aim was to explore academic entitlement among pharmacy students in different colleges the Arab World and assess associated factors.
To evaluate the effect of silver nanoparticles alone and in combination with Triclosan, trans-cinnamaldehyde against Staphylococcus aureus Escherichia coli biofilms on sutures to improve patients' outcomes.
The objective of this research was the preparation new 8-nitrofluoroquinolone models and investigation their antibacterial properties. work initially involved large scale synthon 7-chloro-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-8-nitro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (3), followed by introduction substituted primary amine appendages at C-7 position to give derivatives 9a-g, in which amino group is appended benzenes or aromatic heterocycles, part a α-amino just simple aliphatic amine. This...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the release chlorhexidine as an antifungal drug from doped self-cured poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) acrylic resin and effect released on growth Candida albicans.Release evaluated using liquid chromatography, C. albicans investigated microbiologically a "well" technique Saboraud culture medium inoculated with resistant strain albicans.Chlorhexidine leached steadily out into distilled water at mouth temperature, sustained continued throughout...
Abstract Objectives Antibiotic usage has evolved over the years among Arab population, and it also gone under misuse resulting in development of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Therefore, current study aimed to address this issue by evaluating level knowledge attitude population towards antibiotic AMR develop a pathway reduce risk resistance. Methods A cross-sectional was carried out including 11 countries from Middle East North Africa. validated translated questionnaire, consisting 34...

(1) Background: Antimicrobial resistance represents an urgent health dilemma facing the global human population. The development of novel antimicrobial agents is needed to face rising number resistant bacteria. Ultrashort peptides (USAMPs) are considered promising that meet required criteria drug development. (2) Methods: Alapropoginine was rationally designed by incorporating arginine (R), biphenylalanine (B), and naproxen create ultrashort hexapeptide. activity alapropoginine evaluated...
A needs-based approach is desirable for the transformation of pharmaceutical education, and to link education with health needs populations national priorities. There are varying levels data in literature on status all six World Health Organization (WHO) regions, especially context identification evidence-based policy interventions. The framework this study was FIP Development Goals.
Background: Bacterial resistance is a challenging limitation in infection treatment. This work evaluates the potential antibacterial activity of conjugation Tryasine peptide with silver nanoparticles against selected pathogens. Materials and Methods: The was produced using three subunits tryptophan lysine amino acids, then its purity determined by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. confirmed mass spectrometry electrospray ionization spectrometry. Silver conjugate...
The nematicidal activity of methanolic extracts (20 µg ml-1) from twenty Jordanian plant species against two root-knot nematodes in vitro was evaluated. Whole-plant extract Hypericum androsaemum showed the highest (11% mortality) against Meloidogyne javanica after 24 h incubation. However, leaf of Origanum syriacum also increased M. mortality markedly a day later, reaching 59 and 82% 48 72 h of exposure respectively. Against incognita the response somewhat different, with extract of...
