Real-World Evidence of Efficacy and Safety of Levonadifloxacin (Oral and IV) in the Management of Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections (ABSSSI): Findings of a Retrospective, Multi-Center Study.

Background Antimicrobial resistance by bacteria poses a substantial threat to the success in the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI). Levonadifloxacin is a novel benzoquinolizine subclass of quinolone which has a broad spectrum of activity, available in both oral and intravenous formulations for the treatment of skin structure infections caused by Gram-positive pathogens including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Patients and methods This prescription event monitoring study captured data of 227 patients receiving levonadifloxacin (oral and/or IV) in a real-world setting to assess the safety and efficacy in the treatment of ABSSSI.

Prescription-Event Monitoring Study on Safety and Efficacy of Levonadifloxacin (Oral and I.V.) in Management of Bacterial Infections: Findings of Real-World Observational Study.

Background: Levonadifloxacin is a novel broad-spectrum antibiotic belonging to the benzoquinolizine subclass of quinolones. It is available in intravenous as well as oral formulation for the treatment of infections caused by common Gram-positive bacterial pathogens including methicillin-resistant (MRSA).

Patients And Methods: This study retrospectively assessed the real-world safety and efficacy of levonadifloxacin (oral and/or IV) in the treatment of 1229 patients across various clinical conditions.

Protective effect of melatonin on propoxur-induced impairment of memory and oxidative stress in rats.

Propoxur (a carbamate pesticide) has been shown to adversely affect memory and induce oxidative stress on both acute and chronic exposure. This study was designed to explore the modulation of the effects of propoxur over cognitive function by melatonin (MEL). Cognitive function was assessed using step-down latency (SDL) on a passive avoidance apparatus, and transfer latency (TL) on an elevated plus maze.

Effect of progesterone on phosphamidon-induced impairment of memory and oxidative stress in rats.

Progesterone (a neurosteroid) is an important modulator of the nervous system functioning. Organophosphorus pesticides like phosphamidon have been shown to adversely affect memory and induce oxidative stress on both acute and chronic exposure. The present study was therefore designed to investigate the effects of progesterone (PROG) on phosphamidon-induced modulation of cognitive function and oxidative stress in rats.

Effect of phosphamidon on convulsive behavior and biochemical parameters: modulation by progesterone and 4'-chlorodiazepam in rats.

Phosphamidon (PHOS) has been shown to affect nervous system adversely. The present study was designed to explore the modulation of the effects of PHOS on convulsions by neurosteroids, progesterone (PROG), and 4'-chlorodiazepam (4'-CD), in both acute and chronic seizure models. In acute study, seizures were induced by either pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) injection or maximal electroshock seizures, while in the chronic study, kindling was induced by injecting PTZ (30 mg/kg, s.

Reversal of propoxur-induced impairment of memory and oxidative stress by 4'-chlorodiazepam in rats.

Carbamate pesticides like propoxur have been shown to adversely affect memory and induce oxidative stress on both acute and chronic exposure. The present study was designed to explore the modulation of the effects of propoxur over cognitive function by progesterone (PROG) and 4'-chlorodiazepam (4CD). Cognitive function was assessed using step-down latency (SDL) on a passive avoidance apparatus, transfer latency (TL) on a plus maze and spatial navigation test on Morris water maze.
