Antiretroviral therapy (ART) has revolutionized the lives of people living with HIV/AIDS by overall improving their quality life and increasing expectancy. However, ART-associated hepatotoxicity metabolic disorders in patients are growing concerns to clinicians, especially due long-term use drugs. This study reported on phytochemical pharmacological profile hydroethanolic extracts Piper nigrum stem (PNS) evaluated its protective effect against tenofovir/lamivudine/efavirenz (TLE)-induced...
Background: Nosocomial infections, particularly sepsis, represent a major public health challenge, especially in hospital settings where hygiene practices may fall short. The use of mobile phones by medical staff can act as vector for pathogen transmission, thereby increasing the risk cross-infections. This study aims to evaluate when using at Yaoundé General Hospital and assess their impact on infection sepsis prevention. Materials methods: A cross-sectional, analytical, evaluative was...
The excessive and inappropriate use of antibiotics promotes the emergence bacterial resistance, prompting research to explore therapeutic alternatives, such as essential oils, due their bioactive substances. However, potential for future resistance oils concerns scientific community. In this context, present study was designed compare responses bacteria exposed sub-inhibitory concentrations (EOs) antibiotics. We assessed antibacterial activity EOs reference using liquid microdilution method....
Vulvovaginitis, a significant public health issue, poses risks during pregnancy. This study identifies the germs causing vulvovaginitis and their associated factors in pregnant women at Si Melon Laboratory Yaoundé, Cameroon. In 04-week study, vaginal secretions from 55 were analyzed using Amsel’s criteria, Nugent’s scoring, culture techniques. Antimicrobial sensitivity was assessed via disc diffusion, with statistical significance set p-value ≤ 0.05. Of included this 72.7% carriers of...
Uterine cervix cancer is the most common found worldwide, mostly in developing countries. In Africa as well Caribbean, it represents second cause of mortality, just after maternal mortality. Cameroon, data on are erratic, whereas incidence disease increasing. This paper designed to define epidemiological features uterine cancer, since could help identifying behavioral, environmental and genetic risks factors involved its development. A 4-year retrospective study patients seen with diagnosis...
The emergence of antibiotics resistances become an alarming situation due to the resurgence cases. Scientific community explore therapeutics alternatives, including essentials oils and their combination with antibiotics. designed study aimed evaluate combined effects from Drypetes Gosswelleri, Echinops giganteus, Melaleuca leucadendron against strains implicated in infectious deseases. antibacterial effect (Ciprofloxacine Ceftriaxone) was carried out Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella...
<h3>Background</h3> Tuberculosis (TB), HIV and Helminths are serious overlapping public health problems in sub-Saharan Africa. This triple burden may lead to accelerated disease progression. Although is integrated TB programs Cameroon, data on TB-helminth co-infection still remains limited. study was aimed at determining the prevalence of helminths their associated factors among pulmonary tuberculosis patients Jamot hospital Yaoundé, Cameroon. <h3>Methods</h3> a cross sectional conducted...
