Patients with Chronic kidney Disease (CKD) are fragile. Hemodialysis, the most useful Renal Replacement Therapy in the world is the only treatment available in Madagascar. It is an invasive act exposing several complications. This study aims to assess the prevalence of the bacterial complication in hemodialysis. We conducted a retrospective, exhaustive, descriptive single centre study. Record b...

Background: Cutaneous leishmaniasis is a common parasitic disease in Isfahan province. A common complication of cutaneous leishmaniasis is bacterial superinfection, which may intensify the disease and produce scarring. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the bacterial species isolated from infected lesions of cutaneous leishmaniasis. Patients and Methods: Two hundred out of ...

kidney transplantation in children is the treatment of choice to treat end stage renal disease. improvements in immunosuppressive management have dramatically reduced the risk of early acute rejection and graft loss, however the long term results in terms of graft survival and morbidity still require search for new immunosuppressive regimens. reducing of side effects are the challenges for impr...

Iterative database searches starting from a domain insert sequence in bacterial b-glucosidases reveals the presence of a conserved domain shared by a wide variety of bacterial and eukaryotic proteins. These include other glycosidases, glycosyltransferases, proteases, amidases, adhesins, and bacterial toxins such as anthrax protective antigen (PA). The domain also occurs in the mammalian protein...

In this research, the inhibitory effects of silver nanoparticles and zinc oxide nanoparticles,  in vitro, on disease stone fruits bacterial canker caused by Pseudomonas syrigae pv. Syringae and disease bacterial blight caused by Xanthomonas arboricola pv. juglandis, were studied. Different concentrations of nanoparticles were prepared on Mueller Hinton agar medium in two different ways in a com...

Pathogenic bacterium Renibacterium salmoninarum causes kidney disease with high mortality rate and considerable economic losses in salmonid farming. Thus, application of fast and sensitive method for R. salmoninarum diagnosis is of great importance. This paper describes detection of R. salmoninarum in brook trout tissue with gross clinical signs of disease by nested RT–PCR. Determination of par...

Quantitative measurements of mean time to death, percentage of survivors, and viable cell populations in the whole body were employed to determine the effects of penicillin, dihydrostreptomycin, chlortetracycline, oxytetracycline, chloramphenicol, and antiserum on the course of anthrax infection in mice. By all parameters tested, penicillin and dihydrostreptomycin were most effective in the tre...

conclusions precise evaluation of patients with one renal abnormality could lead to detection of other associated anomalies. application of minimally invasive procedures such as ureteroscopic incision is highly recommended in ureterocele treatment. case presentation a middle-aged male was known to have horseshoe kidney, bilateral ureteroceles and a stone, 1 cm in diameter, in his right ureter. ...
