Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDrug Susceptibility and Molecular Epidemiology of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolated in a Burn UnitHassan Salimi, Parviz Owlia, Bagher Yakhchali, Abdolaziz Rastegar LariProblem statement: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that still develops life-threatening infections in patients with immunological system defects, like burn patients, especially in developing countries. Since this bacterium is naturally resistant to many drugs and is able to get resistance to all effective antibiotics, the infection with this organism is particularly problematic condition for patients. This study was design … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,992 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAntibiogram-Derived Radial Decision Trees: An Innovative Approach to Susceptibility Data DisplayRocco J. Perla, Paul P. BelliveauHospital antibiograms (ABGMs) are often presented in the form of large 2-factor (single organism vs. single antimicrobial) tables. Presenting susceptibility data in this fashion, although of value, does have limitations relative to drug resistant subpopulations. As the crisis of antimicrobial drug-resistance continues to escalate globally, clinicians need (1) to have access to susceptibility data that, for isolates resistant to first-line … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,502 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLandslide Susceptibility Mapping with GIS in Nagi Dada Area of Panauti Municipality, Kavrepalanchwok District: A Comparison Between AHP and FR MethodArju Bhattarai, HimLal Shrestha, Asim Timalsina et al.Landslide Susceptibility Maps (LSM) are useful for both development planning and disaster management. Currently, LSMs are primarily created using GIS and remote sensing techniques. Landslide susceptibility mapping relies heavily on selecting and weighting causative elements based on their impact on slope instability. GIS is useful for calculating static parameters such as slope and aspect, as well as generating landslide susceptibility … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 22 Aug 2024 · 7,093 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAntimicrobial Susceptibility of Bovine Subclinical Mastitis and During Milk Separation Isolates and the Accompanying Hygienic PracticesSultan Farag Nagati, Safaa Khamis HassanMilk is considered one of the most perfect foods for humans and milk contains many nutrients. Subclinical mastitis has been counted as a great problem for dairy manufacture. The disease causes severe economic losses due to lower milk production, treatment costs and increased labor and milk retained for human consumption after treatment and premature culling. A cross-sectional study was conducted … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 7 Apr 2021 · 6,506 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHost Plant-Induced Susceptibility of Two-Spotted Spider Mite Tetranychus urticae (Acari: Tetranychidae) to Some Reduced-Risk AcaricidesTarikul IslamThe two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae (Acari: Tetranychidae) is a cosmopolitan pest of a large number of host plants having extensive damage potential and the terrific ability of pesticide resistance. In the present study, spider mite population were reared continuously on the leaves of three susceptible host plants namely country bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L), papaya (Carica papaya L) and jute … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 14 Apr 2018 · 9,338 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAntimicrobial Susceptibility of Community Acquired Escherichia coli in Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) in Benin for Eleven Years (2005-2015)Tchiakpe Edmond, Laurence Carine Yehouenou, Zahra Fall Malick et al.Antimicrobial resistance became a growing public health problem in the world and Escherichia coli (E. coli) appeared as one of nine bacteria commonly causing infections in community and hospitals. It prevalence and it resistance to antibiotics were evaluated in Benin throughout an eleven year period. In this retrospective study, routine urine samples from patients collected at the National Laboratory (NL) … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 2 Oct 2017 · 7,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleContamination Risk Evaluation of Groundwater in the Canton of Portoviejo-Ecuador, using Susceptibility Index and two Intrinsic Vulnerability ModelsSuhail SharadqahThe present study aims to investigate the applicability of DRASTIC, GOD and SI models in evaluating the groundwater vulnerability and risk of contamination in the Canton of Portoviejo, Ecuador. The groundwater vulnerability to contamination has been evaluated using DRASTIC and GOD models. Both models were able to classify the study area into different sectors of variable vulnerability.

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStudy the Impact of T-helper 1 Cytokine (TNF-α) Polymorphisms on Susceptibility/Resistance to Brucellosis in Makkah RegionAlaa B. Ismael, Adil Mergani, Salama A-H Mostafa, Abdelmoneim M. SalimPolymorphisms in the regulatory regions of cytokine genes may not only increase susceptibility to some infectious diseases but also affect the course and prognosis of the disease. TNF-α is considered an important Th1 cytokines that plays critical roles in control of Brucella infection and in macrophage activation.
