Pregnancy outcomes in renal transplant recipients: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Kidney transplantation is a superior treatment for end-stage renal disease (ESRD), compared with hemodialysis, offering better quality of life and birth outcomes in women with ESRD and lower fertility rates.

Objectives: To investigate the pregnancy, maternal, fetal, and graft outcomes following kidney transplantation in women with ESRD and evaluate the improvements in quality of life and associated risks.

Design: A systematic review and meta-analysis performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses and the Meta-analysis of Observational Studies in Epidemiology guidelines.

Neonatal Meningitis with Septicemia by : A Case Report.

is ubiquitary aerobic bacillus abundantly found in the community as well as hospital environments. is an emerging nosocomial pathogen with an elemental ability to acclimate and survive in diversified environmental circumstances. Prompt diagnosis and an early therapeutic intervention are preponderant in the management of these infections.

Rapid identification of carbapenemases by CarbAcineto NP test and the rate of beta-lactamases among from a teaching hospital.

Background And Objectives: has emerged as a major organism accounting for hospital acquired infections particularly in intensive care units. Due to production of different kinds of beta lactamases these bacteria have developed drug resistance rendering the treatment of such infections very difficult and expensive. Rapid identification of producing such beta-lactamases is the need of the hour in reducing morbidity and mortality associated with infections.

Detection of carbapenemase production in and species by carbapenemase Nordmann-Poirel test.

Purpose: Multidrug-resistant organisms causing community-acquired and hospital-acquired infections are increasing at a dangerous rate. Carbapenemase-producing and species are an important source of concern since these organisms are not only resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics but also show cross-resistance to other groups of antibiotics. In the present study, rapid detection of these carbapenemase-producing and species by carbapenemase Nordmann-Poirel (Carba NP) test was evaluated by comparing with modified Hodge test (MHT).

Study of bacterial flora associated with mobile phones of healthcare workers and non-healthcare workers.

Background And Objectives: Despite improvements in modern diagnosis and therapies, hospital acquired infections remain a leading problem of global health systems. Healthcare workers mobile phones is a reservoir for potential pathogens. Despite the high possibility of being contaminated, mobile phones are rarely clean and are often touched during or after examination of patients and handling of specimens without proper hand washing.
