Evaluation of In-vitro Susceptibility of Multidrug-Resistant Urinary Escherichia Coli Isolates to Fosfomycin

RGUHS Journal of Allied Health Sciences
Background Urinary tract infections UTIs whether community or hospital-acquired are commonly caused by Escherichia coli. Antibiotic like fosfomycin is particularly useful against biofilm-forming and multi-drug resistant MDR bacteria.

Prognostic significance of multidrug-resistance protein (MDR-1) in renal clear cell carcinomas: A five year follow-up analysis

BMC Cancer, 2006
Background A large number of renal cancer patients shows poor or partial response to chemotherapy and the mechanisms have not been still understood.

[Multi-drug resistant lung tuberculosis due to double infection of MDR strain].

Kekkaku : [Tuberculosis], 2004
The case is 47-year-old, homeless man. He was diagnosed as cavitary, sputum smear positive pan-sensitive lung tuberculosis, and admitted to TB ward of our hospital. At the age of 4-year-old he had tuberculous hilar lymphadenopathy and took medicine. He had no other associated disease, and HIV test was negative.

Inter‐Verified Binary Classification Models: Unveiling Key Polymer Features Against Staphylococcus aureus

Carbon Innovation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising alternatives to antibiotics but require precise and costly sequence control for efficacy. Synthetic polymers composed of acrylate and acrylamide offer a simpler and more time‐efficient antibacterial strategy compared to AMPs.

Association between HIV/AIDS and multi-drug resistance tuberculosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2014
BackgroundHuman immunodeficiency virus (HIV), multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR) is emerging as major challenge facing tuberculosis control programs worldwide particularly in Asia and Africa. Findings from different studies on associations of HIV co-

Tumor‐Mimic Artificial Cell Integrated With In Situ Synthetic Biology for Testing of Antitumor Drug Sensitivity

Exploration, EarlyView.
A biomimetic artificial cell model platform integrating in situ synthetic biology is developed, which can show antitumor drug response to simulated cells derived from cell membranes of different tumor cells. It has excellent performance in indicating the curative effect of drugs at the cellular level and provides a novel approach for enhancing the ...

[Immunotherapy for MDR-TB (multi-drug resistant tuberculosis)--its feasibility].

Kekkaku : [Tuberculosis], 1999
MDR-TB is known to be man-made-disease. Inappropriate treatment of tuberculosis is responsible for the development of MDR-TB. MDR-TB is often accompanied with the immunosuppression of the host. Given that we are unable to develop another potent anti-TB drug in near future, immunotherapy directed at combating immunosuppression and enhancing the host's ...

Food Contamination and Safety in Nigeria: A Systematic Synthesis of Heavy Metals, Microbial Pathogens, and Health Risk Metrics

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
This is an infographic driver of food contaminants and health effects. ABSTRACT Food safety remains a critical challenge in Nigeria due to rapid urbanization and weak regulatory enforcement. This systematic review synthesizes empirical evidence from 2015 to 2025 to characterize food contaminant profiles and associated human health risks in Nigeria ...

Characterisation and modulation of drug resistance in lung cancer cell lines [PDF]

, 2010
Chemotherapy drug resistance is a major obstacle in the treatment of cancer. It can result from an increase in levels of cellular drug efflux pumps such as P-glycoprotein (P-gp).

Genomic epidemiology and lineage‐specific risk stratification of tet(X4)‐mediated tigecycline resistance along the pork production chain: A One Health perspective

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Genome surveillance across a swine‐associated One Health continuum in China shows that slaughterhouses act as major enrichment nodes for tet(X4)‐mediated tigecycline resistance, driven by putative clonal transmission and stable plasmid backbones. Integrating global datasets enables lineage‐specific risk stratification, highlighting key control points ...
