Synergistic effects of < em > Bacillus coagulans < /em > and < em > Newcastle disease virus < /em > on human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell proliferation
CONCLUSION: It appears that utilizing oncolytic viruses (OV) and bacteria in conjunction with chemotherapy drugs could potentially aid in reducing the growth of colorectal cancer cells. However, further research is necessary, including animal studies, to confirm the efficacy of this treatment method.PMID:38682055 | PMC:PMC11055439 | DOI:10.18502/ijm.v16i1.14878 (Source: Iranian Journal of Microbiology)

Clinical spectrum of fusariosis from a tertiary care center in India- a retrospective study
CONCLUSION: Traumatic injuries were the major cause of infections in the present study. As Fusarium is a virulent and highly resistant pathogen, an early suspicion and an appropriate diagnosis would lead to a better outcome in these patients.PMID:38682054 | PMC:PMC11055442 | DOI:10.18502/ijm.v16i1.14884 (Source: Iranian Journal of Microbiology)

< em > In vitro < /em > evaluation of inhibitory effect of < em > Lactobacillus reuteri < /em > supernatant on the replication of herpes simplex virus type 1 and expression of < em > UL54, UL52 < /em > and < em > UL27 < /em > genes
CONCLUSION: The study findings indicated that the supernatant of L. reuteri has a potent anti-HSV-1 effect especially if it is incubated with the virus before inoculation into the cell. Its possible antiviral mechanism is to inhibit the virus by binding to it or changing the surface structure of the virus. Metabolites of L. reuteri can be considered as a novel inhibitor of HSV-1 infection.PMID:38682053 | PMC:PMC11055432 | DOI:10.18502/ijm.v16i1.14877 (Source: Iranian Journal of Microbiology)

Early detection of oral bacteria causing gum infections and dental caries in children
CONCLUSION: There were significant associations between dental/oral health and microbial community. Metabolism of the oral bacteria, including biofilm formation, can affect gums and develop dental plaques and hence dental caries, especially in children. Early diagnosis of dental caries in children via rapid, accurate molecular methods can increase the diagnostic capacity in clinical cases and therefore prevent periodontal infections in adulthood.PMID:38682052 | PMC:PMC11055450 | DOI:10.18502/ijm.v16i1.14870 (Source: Iranian Journal of Microbiology)

The antibiogram of pus cultures in federal tertiary care hospital, Islamabad and its utility in antimicrobial stewardship
CONCLUSION: The generation of a local antibiogram specific to the hospital setting is essential to effectively manage infections empirically and preserve the efficacy of existing antibiotics. By implementing antimicrobial stewardship practices based on a better understanding of antibiotic susceptibility patterns, we can contribute to the mitigation of antibiotic resistance and improve patient outcomes.PMID:38682051 | PMC:PMC11055436 | DOI:10.18502/ijm.v16i1.14871 (Source: Iranian Journal of Microbiology)

A Comprehensive Integration of Data Regarding the Correlation of TNF- α rs1800629 Polymorphism with Susceptibility to Cervical Cancer
CONCLUSIONS: The findings from this meta-analysis suggest that the TNF-α rs1800629 polymorphism is a risk factor for cervical cancer in the general population, particularly in Caucasian and African women. However, further well-designed studies are warranted to validate these findings.PMID:38679974 | DOI:10.31557/APJCP.2024.25.4.1155 (Source: Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention)
