Effectiveness of Surgical Deroofing and Carbon Dioxide Laser in Moderate-to-Severe Hidradenitis Suppurativa Patients.

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition that causes pain and discomfort in various body regions. This review explores the comparative effectiveness of two surgical techniques, namely, surgical deroofing and carbon dioxide laser therapy, in managing symptomatic HS, particularly in patients with Hurley stage I-III disease. We conducted a systematic literature search on PubMed and ClinicalTrials.

Inhibition of resistance plasmid transfer in Escherichia coli by ionophores, chlortetracycline, bacitracin, and ionophore/antimicrobial combinations.

Medicinal feed additives bacitracin, chlortetracycline (CTC), laidlomycin, lasalocid, and salinomycin inhibited the transfer of multiresistance-conferring plasmid pBR325 (Tet(r) Amp(r) Cp(r), 6.0 kb) into selected gram-negative strains with the use of an in vitro model. High concentrations of ampicillin-sensitive competence-pretreated Escherichia coli HB 101 cells were exposed to 10% (v/v) of 1:10 dimethyl sulfoxide/agent : water containing test mixtures for 0.
