Abstract

Background: Although the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection decreased following the hygiene promotion and application of proper anti- H.pylori treatments, unfortunately gradual increase is reported in treatment failure; hence, application of a proper treatment regimen as a second-line therapy is of great importance. Methods: In the current randomized, clinical trial, a total of 120 patients with peptic ulcers who failed to respond to treatment were enrolled. In the OLA group, a regimen of omeprazole 40 mg/day, levofloxacin 1 g/day, and amoxicillin 2 g/ day was prescribed; however, a regimen of omeprazole 40 mg/day, bismuth sub-citrate 480 mg/day, furazolidone 400 mg/day, and amoxicillin 2 g/day was administered to the OFAB group. Both groups were treated for 2 weeks, and 6 weeks after the treatment, the urea breath test (UBT) was performed in the subjects. Collected data were analyzed with SPSS Version 18. At the end, 58 patients in group OLA and 57 patients in the OFAB group were analyzed. Results: According to the results of the current study, 96.7 of the subjects in the OLA and 95 in the OFAB groups completed the treatment course and the eradication rates were 86.7 and 78.3 in the OLA and OFAB groups, respectively (P=0.23). Treatment side effects were observed in 51.7 and 11.7 of the subjects in the OLA and OFAB groups, respectively (P

Abstract

The respiratory illness known as COVID-19 is caused by the novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2. While the precise pathogenic mechanism of COVID-19 remains unclear, the occurrence of a cytokine storm subsequent to viral infection plays a pivotal role in the initiation and advancement of the disease. The infection of SARS-CoV-2 induces a state of immune system hyperactivity, leading to an excessive production of inflammatory cytokines. Consequently, the identification of the various signaling pathways implicated in the inflammation induced by COVID-19 will enable researchers to investigate new targets for therapeutic intervention., (Copyright© Bentham Science Publishers; For any queries, please email at epub@benthamscience.net.)

Abstract

Metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL)-producing Acinetobacter baumannii has become a growing therapeutic concern worldwide. The aims of this study were to evaluate the antimicrobial susceptibility of A. baumannii isolates and to determine the prevalence of MBL genes among carbapenem non-susceptible isolates. During a period of 16 months (March 2008-June 2009), 100 isolates of A. baumannii were collected from different clinical specimens of inpatients admitted to the largest teaching hospital in the northwest of Iran. All isolates were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility by Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method. Carbapenem non-susceptible isolates were further screened for production of MBL by Etest and were then subjected to PCR for detection of MBL genes of types bla(IMP) and bla(VIM). Among 63 carbapenem (imipenem and meropenem) non-susceptible isolates of A. baumannii, 31 (49%) were found to be MBL producers. Of 31 MBL-producing isolates, 19 (61%) carried the bla(IMP) gene and 9 (29%) carried the bla(VIM) gene. All MBL-producing isolates were multidrug resistant. This is the first report of IMP and VIM types among MBL-producing A. baumannii in Iran.
