To observe and analyze the therapeutic efficacy of minocycline hydrochloride ointment in the treatment of early peri-implantitis. A total of 180 patients with early peri-implantitis and treated at our hospital were enrolled. The patients were divided into control group and research group, with 90 patients in each group. Of those, patients in the research group were treated with minocycline hydrochloride ointment, while 10% of iodine was placed around the teeth in patients of the control group. The therapeutic efficacy was observed and compared between both groups. By comparing the plaque index of both groups after treatment, results showed that the improvement of the research group was obviously better than that of the control group (p<0.05). By comparing the probing depth and sulcus bleeding index, results showed that the situation of the research group was significantly superior than that of the control group (p<0.05). Application of minocycline hydrochloride ointment in the treatment of early peri-implantitis could significantly improve the therapeutic efficacy.

Background: Antibiotics are among the most commonly prescribed drugs. Unnecessary use of antibiotics is particularly concerning because antibiotics may be associated with a number of adverse drug events.
Aim: The study was designed to detect the association between pulmonary embolism and antibiotics by disproportionality analysis in the Food and Drug Administration database of Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) using data mining algorithms (DMAs).

Objective: accounts for a notable percentage of hospital-acquired infections. The widespread resistance to multiple antibiotic classes complicates treatment efforts. This study aims to find out the pattern of susceptibility of multidrug-resistant (MDRAB) isolated from clinical specimens to antibiotics recommended for testing and use for and to determine a local guide at Tripoli University Hospital (TUH), Tripoli, Libya for the empirical antibiotic treatment of MDRAB based on the susceptibility pattern identified.

species are major pathogens responsible for hospital-acquired infections. This study aimed to compare the clinical characteristics, outcomes, and antimicrobial resistance between (AB) and non- (NBA) species. In this retrospective cohort study, we analyzed data from adult patients (aged 18 or older) with bacteremia treated at two tertiary hospitals from July 2020 to November 2023.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by persistent inflammation, joint pain, and progressive cartilage and bone erosion. Despite advancements in RA management with disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and biologics, some patients remain refractory to conventional treatments. Tetracyclines, such as minocycline and doxycycline, exhibit anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties, making them potential supplementary treatments.
