Efficacy of Intraarticular Vancomycin in Preventing Infection in Patients Undergoing Hip Hemiarthroplasty.

Background: Hip fractures are among the top ten causes of disability in adults worldwide. Patients with hip fracture are at significant risk of mortality and morbidity and reduced quality of life. The use of intra-wound vancomycin has been reported to be effective in reducing the incidence of infection in orthopedic surgeries.

A comprehensive investigation of the medicinal efficacy of antimicrobial fusion peptides expressed in probiotic bacteria for the treatment of pan drug-resistant (PDR) infections.

The present work aimed to examine the intracellular antibacterial efficacy of Recombinant Lactobacillus acidophilus/antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) Melittin and Alyteserin-1a, specifically targeting Gram-negative bacteria. The first assessment was to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of Recombinant L. acidophilus/AMPs versus Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria.

Co-expression network analysis for the identification of potential prostate cancer genes and in vitro confirmation of their expression in cell model in the presence of Staphylococcal gene.

Prostate cancer has arisen as an important life-threatening malignancy in males worldwide. Therefore, it is important to study underlying molecular pathways to be able to proposed appropriate a novel pathway of apoptosis in prostate cancer. This study aimed to explore the molecular effects of Staphylococcal tsst-1 gene on PC3 cell line apoptosis by in silico and studies.

Safety climate assessment: a survey in an electric power distribution company.

This study aimed to investigate safety climate and its structural dimensions as well as establish a relationship between safety climate and demographic variables in a power distribution company. This cross-sectional study included 200 workers. The safety climate questionnaire recommended by the UK Health and Safety Executive was applied containing 43 questions in 11 dimensions.

An Experimental Study of the Effects of Combined Exposure to Microwave and Heat on Gene Expression and Sperm Parameters in Mice.

Objectives: Separate exposure to microwaves (MWs) or heat had effects on expression levels of Bax and Bcl-2 and sperm parameters in studied group.

Aims: The objectives of this research were to determine the effects of separate and combined exposure to 900-MHz MW (as representative of cell phone radiation) and heat on gene expression and spermogram of male mice.

Settings And Design: This experimental animal study was conducted in the school of public health.
