Background and Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of vitamin D supplementation during progressive resistance training on insulin resistance, blood lipids and body fat percentage in T2D men with vitamin D deficiency. Methods: Forty-eight men with T2D participated in the study voluntarily and were randomly assigned to 4 groups (n=12) including, resistance training (RT), vi...

The present study aimed to evaluate the antibiotic resistance pattern of Escherichia coli strains isolatedfrom animals to ascertain the levels of antibiotic resistance pervasiveness. A total of 28 E. coli strains wereisolated from faecal samples and the antibiotic resistance pattern of E. coli strains was determined by meansof disc diffusion assay. The resistance pattern determined for all stra...

The occurrence and spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria is a public health problem globally, and aquatic environments are recognized as reservoir for antibiotic-resistant bacteria associated with antibiotic resistance genes. Antibiotic resistance hotspots are found not only in medical settings but also in environmental compartments that are subjected to anthropogenic pressure, such as munici...

Background Antibiotic resistance is a growing problem worldwide, but communicating this challenge to policymakers and non-experts is complicated by the multiplicity of bacterial pathogens and the distinct classes of antibiotics used to treat them. It is difficult, even for experts aware of the pharmacodynamics of antibiotics, to infer the seriousness of resistance without information on how com...

A global sample of group A streptococci (GAS) revealed > or =80 separate acquisitions of tetracycline resistance. Of 244 clones, 38 and 25% displayed resistance to tetracycline and erythromycin, respectively; a relatively high proportion (15%) were resistant to both classes of drugs. tet(M) displayed a highly significant association with erm(B).

abstract:   background: the most important and complex phenomenon of respiratory function of the nose is related to different nasal anatomy. the differences in facial anatomic structure between different races may also be reflected in nasal resistance and airflow. caucasians has different facial anatomic structure which is the reflection of intranasal resistance or consequence of airflow. the a...

background and objectives: resistance to macrolide can be mediated by erm and msra genes in staphylococcus aureus . there are the evidences that show erm genes may be causative agent of inducible or constitutive resistance. the aim of this study was to investigate the incidence of inducible clindamycin resistance and determine the most frequency of erm and msr a genes among s. aureus isolates. ...
