Filter by:In rectal cancer surgery, the organ/space surgical site infection (O/S-SSI) has an impact on patient's prognosis. Its influence in the oncologic outcomes remains controversial. The main objective is to assess the possible effect of O/S-SSI on long-term overall survival and cancer recurrence.
Large doses of systemic corticosteroids ,severe lung tissue damage and longer COPD diagnosis may increase the risk of IPA in patients with chronic structural lung disease. By comparing the risk factors of aspergillus colonization group and aspergillus infection group, the main risk factors of aspergillus pneumonia were determined.
A phase 1, single-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of multiple administrations of TNP-2092 Capsules in combination with Rabeprazole Sodium Enteric-coated Tablets in asymptomatic healthy subjects with Helicobacter pylori infection
OBJECTIVES: We aimed to study the characteristics of patients presenting with a Bacillus cereus infection in a university hospital. METHODS: We performed a retrospective analysis of the clinical, biological, and treatment-related data of patients hospitalized in our university hospital between January 1st, 2008 and December 31st, 2012 and diagnosed with a B. cereus infection. We identified a subgroup of patients presenting with bacteremia and looked for risk factors for death within that group of patients.
The goal of this clinical trials to learn about potential additives in reducing dental plaque. The main questions it aims to answer is: • is there a difference in the plaque reducing effect of oil pulling with sesame oil compared to rinsing with distilled water? Participants will rinse with 15 ml of their allocated liquid for 15 min every morning for 8 weeks. Researchers will compare sesame oil against distilled water to see if there is a difference in the plaque reducing effect.
Our study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of hybrid regimen as a first line therapy for H. pylori eradication compared to triple and quadruple regimens in attempt to overcome antibiotic resistance
Helicobacter pylori infection is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. More than 50% of the global population is estimated to be infected. In 2015, there were approximately 4.4 billion individuals with H pylori infection worldwide. In Pakistan the prevalence of H. pylori infection, highest (63%) in middle age (41-60 years) group while lowest (33%) in teens and pre-teens (<20 years) group. In young age (20-40) and old age (>60 years) groups, the prevalence of H. pylori was 55% and 60% respectively. In conventional system of medicine H. pylori infection is treated by triple regimen antibiotic therapy that are amoxicillin, clarithromycin and metronidazole along with acid reducing proton pump inhibitor. Due to recurrence of infection this therapy is repeated multiple times resulting in drug resistance and long term side effects. These side effects & a long term impact of H. pylori in patient general health necessitates development of a safe and long term effective therapy.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about vaginal microbial characteristics in the patients under in vitro fertilization treatment. The study aims to address the following questions: (1) Is there any difference in microbial composition between the pregnancy and non-pregnancy groups? (2) Is there any differences in specific bacterial species between the two groups? (3) What are the favorable or unfavorable profiles of vaginal microbiota associated with achieving pregnancy? Patients will be asked to complete a questionnaire regarding their basic characteristics, and vaginal secretions will be collected via vaginal swab during frozen-blastocyst transfer procedures. The study will compare vaginal microbiota between pregnant and non-pregnant patients to assess its potential influence on clinical outcomes.
To explore the analysis of factors causing indwelling urinary catheter-related infections in ICU patients and their nursing strategies, and to provide reference for clinical nursing work. 291 patients with indwelling urinary catheters in the second area of ICU of our hospital from January 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 were selected as research subjects. They were divided into infection group and non-infection group according to the presence or absence of urinary tract infection. Non-infection group The first group consisted of patients without urinary tract infection (278 cases), and the infection group consisted of patients with urinary tract infection (13 cases). A retrospective analysis method was used to analyze the causes of catheter-related urinary tract infection and the infecting bacteria of the two groups of patients. A single factor analysis was performed on various factors and other related factors, and corresponding nursing strategies were summarized and proposed.
These studies offer valuable insights into the potential development of KGR as a novel herbal-based preventive and therapeutic strategy against COVID-19.
