Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the life satisfaction, quality of life, and mood of kidney donors at least six months post-donation.
- Conducted through phone interviews with 41 participants at a kidney transplant center in Pakistan, results indicated a positive link between life satisfaction and quality of life, while anxiety negatively affected quality of life.
- Older kidney donors exhibited lower quality of life, and the study highlighted the interplay between age, anxiety, and life satisfaction in this group.
Objectives: The objective of the current study was to find prevalence of relevant ESBL and carbapenemase producing genes in nosocomial and isolates and to check phenotypic susceptibility of all ESBL positive isolates to carbapenems.
Methods: Forty ESBL producing clinical isolates of (n=33) and (n=7) were examined for the presence of β-lactamase genes (CTX-M, CTX-M-1, 2, 3, 4 and TEM). Carbapenem resistance was checked phenotypically and by presence of gene.
The study was designed to evaluate the phenolic, flavonoid contents and antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of onion (), garlic (), mint (), thyme (), oak (), aloe vera ( Miller), and ginger (). All extracts showed a wide range of total phenolic contents, that is, 4.96 to 98.
