Background: The outbreak of COVID-19 in China late 2019 was an unprecedented catastrophe that also involved many other countries, including Iran. Concerning the danger disease contagion, it is necessary to detect asymptomatic or mild cases, especially hospital staff who are highly exposed disease. Objectives: In this serosurvey study, we aimed estimate IgG seroprevalence among two public hospitals determine local transmission and infection risk factors, as well protective immunity high-risk...
The study aims to show the possible anxiolytic and antidepressant-like properties of an oral lavender’s flower aqueous extract (LAE) in chronic mild stress (CMS) model rats. Test control rats received LAE (200 or 400 mg/ kg) distilled water respectively. Tests Sucrose preference (SP), elevated plus maze (EPM), open field (OFT) were used evaluate rats’ behavioral changes. percentage SP CMS group was 2.6 times less than that unstressed (p<0.05). However, administration mg...
Background: SARS-CoV-2 is a novel virus that caused the recent global pandemic. Health care workers (HCWs), especially hospital staff, are at higher risk of infection by this than general population. In study, anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies were assessed in workers. Methods: This prospective seroconversion-based cohort study chronic immunity against covid-19 staff two hospitals, main referral and Shiraz, south Iran. A valid reliable checklist was filled out for each available member willing...
Background: Hepatitis A virus (HAV) can have severe manifestations in adult patients with other liver diseases, particularly those infected human immunodeficiency (HIV). This study aimed to measure immunity against HAV HIV-positive individuals determine the necessity of vaccination this population. Methods: cross-sectional investigated 171 aged 18 years or older who were tested for serum IgG anti-viral hepatitis antibody. The prevalence and its determinants analyzed based on patient data....
