Rhodococcus equi (R. equi) is a microorganism that was first identified in horses. Afterward, it found to cause opportunistic infections immunosuppressed patients. It causes especially pulmonary immunocompromised patients while rarely diseases such as septic arthritis and soft tissue infections. important question epidemiological risk factors for the diagnosis of disease. Also, clinician-microb...

BACKGROUND There is an increased demand for the reduction of localized adipose tissue by noninvasive methods. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine the safety and efficacy of noninvasive lipolysis of excess adiposities overlying the lateral thigh region using acoustic wave therapy (AWT). This study incorporates 2 mechanical waves with varying properties in the same session: r...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the lipolytic potential of solutions used in the practice of cosmetic mesotherapy to stimulate lipolysis, cause local fat reduction and reduce the appearance of cellulite. The mesotherapy solutions were tested in a human fat cell assay using the fold induction of glycerol generation as a measure of lipolysis. The following mesotherapy solutions were tested:...

Although, one of the etiologies of localized lipodystrophy of the subcutaneous connective tissue (cellulite) is the histological alternation of adipose tissue, the characteristics of expression of the components of extracellular matrix (ECM) components during adipogenesis are not uncovered. In this study, the effects of caffeine and Ishige okamurae originated diphlorethohydroxycarmalol (DPHC) o...
