Hepatitis01:25

Hepatitis

42
Hepatitis is an inflammatory condition of the liver most commonly caused by hepatotropic viruses (A–E), though non-infectious causes such as alcohol and drugs also exist.Hepatitis AHepatitis A virus (HAV) is a non-enveloped RNA virus of the Picornaviridae family. It is primarily transmitted via the fecal-oral route, typically through ingestion of contaminated food or water. After ingestion, HAV enters the bloodstream through the oropharynx or intestinal epithelium and reaches the liver.

Microbial Bioremediation of Uranium01:25

Microbial Bioremediation of Uranium

64
Microorganisms play a critical role in the transformation and immobilization of uranium in contaminated environments through four main pathways: bioreduction, biosorption, bioaccumulation, and biomineralization. These mechanisms reduce uranium’s toxicity and prevent its migration through groundwater systems, offering sustainable approaches for in situ bioremediation.Bioreduction of UraniumBioreduction is driven by anaerobic bacteria such as certain strains of Geobacter and Shewanella,...

IR Frequency Region: Fingerprint Region01:03

IR Frequency Region: Fingerprint Region

2.3K
IR spectra are divided into two main regions: the diagnostic region and the fingerprint region. The diagnostic region of the spectrum lies above 1500 cm−1. The absorptions resulting from single-bond vibrations of the N–H, C–H, and O–H stretch at higher wavenumbers and appear on the left side of the spectrum. The stretching absorptions of the C≡C and C≡N occur between 2100–2300 cm−1. In contrast, those arising from stretching absorptions of the...

Area of Science:

  • Trauma Surgery
  • Public Health
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Burn injuries pose a significant public health challenge in Iran, with existing data often fragmented and unreliable.
  • Effective management and prevention strategies require comprehensive and coordinated data collection.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To establish a comprehensive burn registry in Iran for detailed data collection on burn patients.
  • To analyze the epidemiology, causes, treatment, and outcomes of burn injuries in the studied population.
  • To provide a foundation for future research and the development of targeted prevention and treatment programs.

Main Methods:

  • Development and implementation of a data entry program with 222 variables for admitted burn patients.
  • Data collection from August 2010 to August 2011 at Motahari Burn Hospital, Iran University of Medical Sciences.
  • Analysis of demographic, etiological, and clinical data for 877 hospitalized burn patients.

Main Results:

  • The registry captured 877 hospitalized patients (65.9% male, mean age 28.85 years).
  • Flame burns were the predominant cause (78.5%), particularly from pipe propane gas (57.2%).
  • Mean total body surface area (TBSA) involvement was 23%, with 8.9% mortality and 77.8% partial recovery; Emergency Medical Services coverage was below 50%.

Conclusions:

  • The burn registry provides crucial insights into burn injury patterns in Iran, aiding in understanding patient demographics, causes, and treatment outcomes.
  • Findings underscore the need to enhance Emergency Medical Services coverage and inform the development of targeted burn prevention and treatment initiatives.
  • The registry serves as a vital resource for ongoing research and public health interventions related to burn injuries in the region.
