Impact of COVID-19 infections and vaccination on menstrual cycle symptoms in the south of Jordan: a cross-sectional study.

Background: Several recent studies have highlighted the need for more evaluation of the impact of COVID-19 infections and vaccines on the reproductive system and menstruation. This study aimed to assess the impact of COVID-19 infection and vaccines on menstrual symptoms.

Methods: A cross-sectional survey utilizing face-to-face interviews from January 1 to 31 March 2022 was conducted in the city of Al-Karak in southern Jordan.

Emergence and Genomic Characterization of a Type t4407 ST6-SCC Type IVa Methicillin-Resistant Strain Isolated from Al-Karak Hospital, Jordan.

: Methicillin-resistant (MRSA) is a major concern in Jordanian hospitals in terms of infection control. The purpose of this study was to identify the resistance patterns of strains isolated from surfaces of critical locations within the Al-Karak Governmental Hospital in 2019. Additionally, the study aimed to conduct whole-genome sequencing on the isolates.

COVID-19 pandemic impact on antibiotics sensitivity of E. coli and K. pneumoniae from urine specimens: a retrospective study.

Introduction: Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae are common organisms associated with urinary tract infections. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative impact on antibiotics misuse globally. This study analyzed the antibiotic susceptibility for these two pathogens isolated from urine samples during the period of 18 months before and after the COVID-19 pandemic.

Deregulation of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27 as a putative candidate for transformation in infected mesenchymal stem cells.

Purpose: Several pathological conditions might cause the degradation of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor (CKI) p27 and cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase, including cancers and infections. (Ctr), as an obligatory intracellular pathogen, has been found to alter the fate of the cell from different aspects. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of Ctr infection on the expression of the important cell cycle regularity protein p27 in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).

Loss of p53 Expression in Gastric Epithelial Cells of -Infected Jordanian Patients.

Background: Around half of the global population is chronically infected with the stomach bacterium making it one of the most common chronic infections worldwide. induces the production of reactive oxygen species, DNA damage, and accelerates the degradation of the tumor suppressor protein p53, which may lead to cancer development. In this study, we investigated the relationship between infection and the expression of p53 in gastric mucosa in a group of patients from Jordan.

Human papillomavirus as an independent risk factor of invasive cervical and endometrial carcinomas in Jordan.

Background: Endometrial and cervical carcinomas are the most common gynecologic malignancies in Western world and many countries. The human papillomavirus (HPV) high-risk genotypes are associated with cervical carcinoma (CC). Chlamydia trachomatis (C.
