Type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) is growing rapidly around the world, due in large part to significant changes in the modern human lifestyle. T2DM and its complications are affected by a complex interplay of genetic, life course, ecological, cultural, socioeconomic, cognitive-psychological-behavioral, and access to care factors that influence regional variations in disease burden and care quality by gender. This study aims to investigate the role of laminin subunit alpha 2 (LAMA2), mixed lineage leukemia 4 (MLL4), plexin domain containing 2 (PLXDC2), and Protein Z (PORZ) as potential biomarkers for T2DM at different durations of the disease. These biomarkers were assessed using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. While biochemical param

Few clinical investigations have indicated that ascorbic acid supplementation shortens the duration and symptoms of urinary tract infections. The purpose of this study was to determine whether ascorbic acid was impacted by the antibiotic therapy indicated for urinary tract isolates of E. coli O157. Our study aimed to determine the efficacy of ciprofloxacin, ascorbic acid, or a combination of both in eliminating Escherichia coli O157 bacteria that had grown in the urethra of male Wistar albino rats.
