They are ribosomally synthesized and produced by both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The bacteriocins produced by Escherichia coli are called colicins. Colicins in commensal bacteria inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria and in pathogen strains, they increase bacterial virulence. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of col V and col Ia genes in Escherichia coli specimens isolated from patients with urinary tract infections in Yazd City, Iran. Methods: In this descriptive cross-sectional study, 160 Escherichia coli samples were isolated from urine specimens and identified by common biochemical tests. The amplification of col V and col Ia genes was performed by PCR method using specific primers and after sequencing, the results were analyzed using SPSS version 16 software. Results: In this study, out of 160 Escherichia coli isolates examined, calicin gene was detected in 26.9% of the isolates. The frequency of col Ia gene was 24.4% and the frequency of col V gene was 10.6%. Furthermore, in 8.12% of isolates, both genes were identified together. The frequency of isolates containing only col Ia gene was 16.2% and isolates containing only col V gene was 2.5%. Conclusion: In this study, isolates with col Ia gene showed high frequency. Most strains with col V gene also had col Ia gene. Therefore, the col V gene is often observed together with the col Ia gene.","PeriodicalId":17084,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences","volume":"50 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139228102","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This canal has branches towards the anterior ridge and the teeth, which can be exposed to damage during dental procedures such as implants, resulting in paranesthesia. The purpose of this study was to determine the frequency of CS in the anterior region of the maxilla by CBCT radiography in a private radiology center in Yazd City in the last 2 years, to familiarize dentists with this anatomical variety and prevent complications. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 218 CBCT images were selected. Images are related to the patients in the age range of 24 to 80 years. Axial, coronal and sagittal sections are reconstructed by an oral and maxillofacial radiologist. The images reviewed by two radiologists. Then, age, sex, frequency, location of the canal ending, bilateral or unilateral, sub-branches and the location of the canal in the vertical and anteroposterior dimension were checked. The results were investigated by SPSS version 16 software with Chi squared and T-test statistical tests. Results: The reviewed images belonged to 112 (51.4%) women and 106 (48.6%) men. The frequency of CS was 96.3%. The most frequency was found in women in the age of 24-44 years (62.8%). The 95.4% was reported bilaterally. In the examination of the Accessory canals, they were not seen in 141 people (64.7%). The accessory canal (AC) was reported more frequent between central and lateral incisor. In this study, using the Chi-Square test, there was no statistically significant relationship between the presence of CS and age (P=0.188) and gender (P=0.162).

Methods: There were 60 rats used in this study, divided into six groups of 10 rats each. To expose stress, 30 rats (in 3 groups including Stress, Stress-Carvone, and Stress-Ajwain groups) were placed in a restrainer for 6 hours every day for 21 consecutive days. Stress-Carvone and Stress-Ajwain groups received carvone (20 mg/kg) and ajwain extract (500 mg/kg) by gavage respectively. Thirty rats were also used in three groups (Control, Carvone, and Ajwain groups). Spatial learning and memory were studied using the Morris water maze, and anxiety was assessed by the elevated-plus maze. Results: Compared to the control group, chronic immobilization caused the rats to swim a longer time (P < 0.01) and distance (P < 0.05) to reach the hidden platform, and a shorter time and distance to swim in the target quarter (P < 0.05) in the Morris water maze. The percentage of entering the open arm in the elevated plus maze (P < 0.001) and the percentage of time staying in this arm (P < 0.01) were lower than the control group. The carvone improved the performance of stressed animals in the Morris maze, but the ajwain extract had no effect on the memory deficit of stressed animals. Furthermore, treating ajwain extract and carvone increased the percentage of entry into the open arm and the percentage of time spent in the open arm in animals exposed to stress. Conclusion: Ajwain extract and carvone reduce anxiety behavior in rats exposed to chronic immobility stress; carvone treatment prevents memory impairment in these animals. It is possible that the extract of ajwain (partially through carvone) is effective in reducing damage caused by stress in the nervous system.","PeriodicalId":17084,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences","volume":"122 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139230971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
