Abstract Background The core components (CCs) of infection prevention and control (IPC) from World Health Organization (WHO) are crucial for the safety quality health care. Our objective was to examine level implementation WHO (IPC CC) in a developing country. We also aimed evaluate care-associated infections (HAIs) antimicrobial resistance (AMR) intensive care units (ICUs) association with implemented IPC CCs.

The aim of this study was to assess health-related quality life (HRQOL) among chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients in Turkey and related factors. This multicenter carried out between January 01 April 15, 2015 57 centers. Adults were enrolled studied three groups. Group 1: Inactive HBsAg carriers, 2: CHB receiving antiviral therapy, 3: who neither therapy nor inactive carriers. Study data collected by face-to-face interviews using a standardized questionnaire, Short Form-36 (SF-36) Hepatitis...
In our study, we aim to compare the resistance profiles of Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from intensive care unit (ICU) patients before during COVID-19 pandemic. The study involved adult monitored in ICUs a secondary-level hospital January 2019 December 2022. Isolates A. P. were obtained blood, urine, respiratory samples. Identification antibiotic susceptibility tests conducted using disk diffusion method VITEK 2 system. average age was 61.3 ± 21.9 years (range:...
Purpose: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a global public health problem with significant morbidity and mortality rates the detection of HBsAg very important test for diagnosis. Ideally, rapid tests should have high sensitivity an acceptable level specificity, so that false positive negative results can be prevented. The objective this study was to evaluate performance screening confirmed cases ELISA PCR. Materials Methods: This conducted as prospective in tertiary hospital Samsun...
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects pyrimethamine (PYR) and sulfadiazine (SDZ) combined with levamisole echinacea on survival mice infected Toxoplasma gondii. For this, we used 99 specific pathogen-free BALB/c mice. All were intraperitoneally 105 T. gondii tachyzoites divided into 11 groups, each including 9 Except for control group, oral treatment was initiated in all groups 24 h post infection continued 10 days. regimen included dual combinations PYR (dose, 6.25 12.5...
Aim: This study was designed to investigate how procalcitonin (PCT) levels are affected by different pathogens in patients with sepsis. Materials & methods: A total of 110 Gram-positive sepsis, 62 Gram-negative sepsis and 27 fungal were included the study. Kaplan-Meier ROC curve analysis performed assess PCT levels.

Obesity has been identified as a contributing factor that exacerbates the severity of COVID-19 and is associated with an increased risk mortality among hospitalized patients. Assessing visceral adipose tissue cannot be solely determined by obesity body mass index (BMI) alone. In our study, we investigated relationship between adiposity (VAI) clinical COVID-19.A total 315 adult patients were included in study. The cohort consisted 146 male patients, median age was 60 (48-74) years....
