ABSTRACT Introduction Lung ultrasound score (LUS) is used to predict the need for surfactant in preterm neonates. Its performance lower neonates with a gestational age (GA) ≥ 34 weeks. We developed score, thoracic (TUS), overcome shortcomings of LUS. Objectives To assess feasibility and diagnostic accuracy TUS evaluate oxygenation administration, compared Materials Methods This was prospective, multicenter, observational study. Preterm noninvasive ventilation GA between 24 + 0 36 6 weeks...
In human and wildlife populations, the natural microbiota plays an important role in health maintenance prevention of emerging infectious diseases. amphibians, diseases have been closely associated with population decline extinction worldwide. Skin symbiont communities suggested as one factors driving different susceptibilities amphibians to The activity skin against fungal pathogens, such Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, has examined extensively, whereas its protective towards cutaneous...
To study Bacillus clausii from a pharmaceutical product (Enterogermina O/C, N/R, SIN, T) and reference strains (B. subtilis) for eco-physiological aspects regarding the gut environment.Spores vegetative cells were challenged in vitro miming injury of gastrointestinal transit: pH variations, exposure to conjugated free bile salts, microaerophilic anaerobic growth. No relevant differences found studying growth at 8 10, whereas 7 yields obtained O/C SIN higher than those N/R T strains. The...
This study analyzes the composition of viable faecal bacteria and gut toxicology biomarkers twenty-nine healthy volunteers, who followed omnivorous, lacto-ovo-vegetarian or vegan diets. In particular, research was focused on prevalence some representative from four dominant phyla (Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria) commonly present in human faeces, order to evaluate relationship between microorganisms selected by habitual dietary patterns potential risk due water...
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and yeasts, representing the prevailing microbiota associated with different foods generally consumed without any cooking, were identified characterized in vitro for some functional properties, such as acid-bile tolerance antigenotoxic activity. In particular, 22 Lactobacillus plantarum strains 14 yeasts studied. The gastro-intestinal tract of all was determined by exposing washed cell suspensions at 37°C to a simulated gastric juice (pH 2.0), containing pepsin...
To investigate the ability of bacilli various species (Bacillus clausii, Bacillus subtilis, lentus, pumilus. megaterium, firmus, sp.) and origins (probiotic collection strains) to counteract activity some representative DNA-reactive agents.The inhibitory effect 21 strains, previously characterized by tDNA-PCR, on four genotoxins, was examined in vitro using short-term assay SOS-Chromotest. All strains had a high against 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide N-methyl-N'-nitro-nitrosoguanidine (direct...
The present study was designed to investigate the putative antigenotoxic effects of supplementing diet rats treated with colon carcinogen 1,2-dimethylhydrazine hydrochloride (DMH) a Lactobacillus casei strain using an in vivo approach. response evaluated and liver cells alkaline comet assay. Since balance between bioactivation detoxification metabolic pathways is crucial for formation toxic genotoxic metabolites, alterations level some xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes (XME) were studied...
