The objective of this study was to determine the frequency antimicrobial resistance and genes encoding virulence factors enterococci isolated in hospitalized burn patients a major center Ahvaz, southwest Iran. A total 340 bacterial isolates were collected from February 2014 2015. susceptibility MIC vancomycin determined using disk diffusion micro-agar dilution techniques. genus species-specific genes, potential vanA vanB detected by polymerase chain reaction. According our results, out...
Abstract Background This study sought to examine the impact of magnesium supplementation on clinical outcomes and biochemical factors among hospitalized patients with COVID-19. Methods double-blind, randomized trial was conducted at Razi Hospital, Ahvaz, Iran, between September 2021 March 2022. Participants aged 18–70 years moderate disease severity were enrolled. Magnesium (300 mg daily) administered intervention group, while control group received a placebo. Clinical outcomes, including...
This study presents a reliability-constrained optimization approach to determine the number and size of combined heat power (CHP) system components, including CHP units, auxiliary boilers, heat-storage tanks. To this end, loss-of-load expectation expected energy not supplied are considered since reliability indices ensure security operation. The load forecasting inaccuracy random outages components as well loss mains modeled scenario tree using Monte Carlo sampling approach. problem is...
Background: Foot infections are the most common problems in persons with diabetes. These individuals predisposed to foot because of a compromised vascular supply secondary Both aerobic and anaerobic bacteria responsible for infections, which them resistant antibiotics Patients Methods: In total 116 hospitalized outpatients diabetic were investigated. Deep tissue biopsies inoculated into freshly prepared Thioglycollate broth medium. Bacterial agents identified by conventional bacteriologic...
Diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) is not always easy, thus employing methods with a short duration and acceptable sensitivity specificity necessary to diagnose TB.The aim this study was investigate the diagnostic value serum adenosine deaminase (ADA) level for diagnosis pulmonary tuberculosis.A total 160 sex age-matched subjects were included in study, divided four groups; forty patients (PTB) diagnosed based on national TB program (NTP), non-tuberculosis bacterial pneumonia, lung cancer people...
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a major cause of chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HB vaccination an essential step in the prevention disease its consequent complications.Immune status medical personnel teaching hospitals Khuzestan not well known. Since these are usually at risk needle stick other high-risk events, some challenges exist infection control committee with regard to managing events. This study was conducted assess post-vaccination immunity...
Early treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) is necessary for a successful (TB) control program.The objective this study was to determine total delay and its associated factors among PTB patients in Ahvaz.A retrospective performed newly diagnosed cases registered 2010 at the Ahvaz health center. Total defined as time interval between onsets cough initiation anti-TB treatment. Tuberculosis diagnosis based on national TB program (NTP). Data analysis using SPSS software by chi-square...
For many years, the uncertainty of lie-detection systems has been one concerns defense related agencies. Clearly results these must be generalized by a high value accuracy to acceptable judicial systems. In this paper, new method based on P300-based component proposed for lie-detection. regard, test protocol is designed Odd-ball paradigm concealed information recognition. This was done 32 people and their brain signals were acquired. After preprocessing, classic features are extracted from...
Mycobacterium simiae has been reported worldwide, particularly from the Middle East. This organism recognized as a causative agent of pulmonary and disseminated infections. In this study, we used molecular methods to detect patients who were suspected having tuberculosis. A total 117 isolates mycobacteria evaluated different regions Iran. Isolates identified using phenotypic gene sequencing 16S rRNA, rpoB, hsp65, ITS. Of isolates, 12 M. (10.2%) clinical samples, including bronchoalveolar...
BackgroundSevere acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 was first reported in December 2019 and it has spread globally ever since. The HLA system is crucial directing anti-viral immunity recent studies are investigating the possible involvement of genes on severity immune inflammation different phases COVID-19.MethodsIn this cross-sectional study, peripheral blood-extracted genomic DNAs 109 COVID-19 patients 70 healthy controls were genotyped for alleles HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-DRB1 loci using...
ABSTRACT Background and Aims During the COVID‐19 pandemic, emergence of mucormycosis, a rare but often fatal fungal infection, gained significant attention due to its increased prevalence among immunocompromised patients. This study aimed determine characterize clinical features COVID‐19‐associated mucormycosis in patients admitted Imam Khomeini Hospital, Ahvaz, Iran. Methods retrospective, cross‐sectional analyzed data from between November 2020 2021. Inclusion criteria encompassed...
Papillomas are the most common laryngeal tumors of infancy and childhood (1–7). Children more prone to this affliction than adults, particularly if papillomas multiple. The sex incidence is roughly equal, with a slight male predominance. lesions likely recur after removal patient under age sixteen years. Most investigators (8) feel it impossible detect histologic differences between removed from child those an adult or single multiple papillomas. Hoarseness common, usually first, symptom...
Leptospirosis as an emerging infectious disease is considered important public health problem worldwide.The current study aimed to identify potential risks for leptospirosis among rice farmers in Khuzestan province, Iran.A cross-sectional was carried out Khuzestan, South west Iran, from October December, 2012. Randomly selected participants were placed two groups: Rice cases, and non-farmers controls. Blood samples obtained the tested IgM anti-leptospira antibodies using Serion ELISA classic...
