Investigating the Results of One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass After Primary Metabolic and Bariatric Restrictive Procedures.

Background: Previous studies showed a high conversion rate and failure of restrictive procedures, including sleeve gastrectomy (SG), adjustable gastric banding (AGB), gastric plication (GP), and vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG) in a long-term follow-up. The current study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a revisional one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) for weight loss and treatment of obesity-related problems after primary metabolic and bariatric restrictive procedures.

Methods: A retrospective study on prospectively collected data was conducted on a sample of 151 patients who experienced insufficient weight loss or weight regain after primary restrictive surgeries and underwent OAGB as a revisional procedure.

Nano-scaffold-based delivery systems of antimicrobial agents in the treatment of osteomyelitis ; a narrative review.

Osteomyelitis caused by drug-resistant pathogens is one of the most important medical challenges due to high rates of mortality and morbidity, and limited therapeutical options. The application of novel nano-scaffolds loaded with antibiotics has widely been studied and extensively evaluated for and inhibition of pathogens, regenerating damaged bone tissue, and increasing bone cell proliferation. The treatment of bone infections using the local osteogenic scaffolds loaded with antimicrobial agents may efficiently overcome the problems of the systemic use of antimicrobial agents and provide a controlled release and sufficient local levels of antibiotics in the infected sites.

Antimicrobial susceptibility and virulence gene analysis of species causing dysentery in Iranian children: Implications for fluroquinolone resistance.

species significantly impact global health due to their role in diarrheal diseases. A 2019-2022 cross-sectional study on 432 stool samples from pediatric patients in Mashhad, Iran, identified spp. and tested their susceptibility to 12 antimicrobials by the disk diffusion method.

evaluation of inhibitory effect of supernatant on the replication of herpes simplex virus type 1 and expression of and genes.

Background And Objectives: Human herpes virus type 1 (HSV-1) is a neurotropic pathogen that is infected more than 70% of the world population. The increasing of viral resistance to antiviral drugs and the emergence of side effects has motivated researchers to study the use of probiotics as new antiviral agents. The aim of the present study was to study for the first time the potential antiviral activity of supernatant against HSV-1.

Cloning, expression and molecular analysis of recombinant Netrin-A protein of Meigen (Diptera: Calliphoridae) larvae.

Objectives: (Diptera: Calliphoridae) is used in larval therapy for wound healing. Netrin-A is an enzyme secreted from the salivary glands of these larvae, and has a central role in neural regeneration and angiogenesis. This study aimed to produce the recombinant Netrin-A protein from larvae by the baculovirus expression vector system in the Sf9 insect cell line.
