conclusions timely detection and appropriate antibiotic therapy of afbn are essential to prevent renal abscess formation. a possible diagnosis of afbn needs to be considered in all patients being treated for febrile uti. detection and surgical correction of the underlying malformation are necessary to prevent further recurrences. case presentation here we describe a case of a 4-year-old boy adm...

background : the pathologies classified as urinary tract infections (uti) can have a deleterious effect on patients who have undergone a renal transplantation.  often recurrent utis will occur, leading to high morbidity, failure of the grafting process overall and even death.  the study presented here seeks to expand the knowledge of recurrent utis in the context of renal transplantation, what ...

background sexually transmitted infections (stis) have a major negative impact on sexual and reproductive health globally. the most effective way to avoid stis is to abstain from sexual contact or having sex only in a long-term, mutually monogamous relationship with an uninfected partner. objectives this study aimed to determine behavioral prevention regarding stis. patients and methods this an...

despite the introduction of new antifungal agents, resistances to antifungal therapy continue to increase and outcome of invasive fungal infections treatment is frequently suboptimal. a large amount of the recent effort in antifungal drug discovery has focused on a limited set of targets with functions known or expected to be important for fungal viability and virulence. a variety of techniques...

background putative virulence factors are responsible for the pathogenicity of utis caused by pseudomonas aeruginosa (p. aeruginosa). resistance of p. aeruginosa to commonly used antibiotics is caused by the extreme overprescription of those antibiotics. objectives the goal of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of virulence factors and the antibiotic resistance patterns of p. a...

Introduction:TORCH infections causing via Toxoplasma gondii, other microorganisms (e.g., Treponema pallidum), Rubella virus, Cytomegalovirus (CMV) and the Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) types 1 and 2 during the first trimester of pregnancy can lead to severe fetal anomalies or even fetal loss. The current study determined the serological data of TORCH infections in women who were in their first tri...

antibiotics are the best known products of actinomycete. over 5,000 antibiotics have been identified from the cultures of gram positive and gram-negative organisms, and filamentous fungi, but only about 100 antibiotics have commercially been used to treat human, animal and plant diseases. the genus, streptomycete, is responsible for the formation of more than 60% of known antibiotics. bacterial...

the chemical composition of essential oils isolated from the leaves of cosmos bipinnatus and its antibacterial activity were analyzed by gc-ms and microbroth dilution assay respectively. the essential oil extracted from this plant was predominantly composed of monoterpenes (69.62%) and sesquiterpenes (22.73%). the antibacterial assay showed that the oil had significant inhibitory effects agains...

background: the main objective of this study was to determine the prevalence and antimicrobial resistance profiles of the main bacteria which are responsible forurinary tract, blood stream, cerebrospinal fluid, lower respiratory tract, and wound infections in hamadan province in the west of iran. materials and methods:in this study,a total of 773 urinary tract, 273 blood stream, 13 cerebrospina...
