Synthesis, Characterization, Molecular Docking, and Investigation of Antibacterial Properties of New Derivatives of 1-H-Phenanthro [9,10-d] Imidazole.

In this study, several imidazole derivatives in one pot multicomponent reaction from various aldehydes 1(a-z), 9,10-phenanthrenequinone, or benzyl (2), and ammonium acetate (3) were synthesized in the presence of acetic acid (AcOH) under reflux conditions at 120 °C. Also, the photochromic properties of synthesized compounds were investigated in AcOH as a solvent under laboratory conditions at a temperature of 120 °C. Moreover, the antibacterial activity of the synthesized compounds was investigated.

The main nursing metaparadigm concepts in human caring theory and Persian mysticism: a comparative study.

Metaparadigm concepts comprise the central issues in a discipline. Fawcett has named person, health, environment and nursing as the four main concepts of nursing that need to be comprehensively defined. The Human Caring Theory is significant because of its focus on the spiritual dimension of human beings.

Association between ABCB1-T1236C polymorphism and drug-resistant epilepsy in Iranian female patients.

Background: One third of epileptic patients are resistant to several anti-epileptic drugs (AED). P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is an efflux transporter encoded by ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1) gene that excludes drugs from the cells and plays a significant role in AEDs resistance. Over-expression of P-gp could be a result of polymorphisms in ABCB1 gene.
