Bacteriophages- A New Frontier in Medicine
Abstract: Bacteriophages, or phages, are viruses that specifically target and infect bacteria, offering an innovative alternative to traditional antibiotic treatments, especially in the face of rising antibiotic resistance. The resurgence of phage therapy has been driven by the increasing prevalence of multidrug-resistant bacterial strains and the slowdown in the development of new antibiotics. Phages, unlike antibiotics, target specific bacterial strains, reducing the impact on the natural microbiota and potentially offering a …

The Concept of Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) in Unani Medicine and the Potential Role of Unani Pharmacology in Its Management
Abstract: Introduction: Guillain–Barré Syndrome (GBS) is an autoimmune neurological disorder characterized by progressive muscle weakness and paralysis due to immune-mediated damage to the peripheral nervous system. Conventional treatments focus on immunotherapy and supportive care, but alternative approaches, such as Unani Medicine offer promising holistic management strategies. Unani Medicine attributes GBS to humoral imbalance, particularly an excess of Balgham (Phlegm) affecting nerve function, leading to weakness and dysfunction. Objective: This study aims …

Evaluating Linezolid: A Comprehensive Analysis
Abstract: Treatments for infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria, such as methicillin-resistant staphylococci and VRE, including skin and soft tissue infections, community-acquired pneumonia, and other infections treated with linezolid, an oxazolidinone antimicrobial agent that functions by specifically inhibiting protein synthesis. Even while antibiotic resistance is becoming more frequent in many nations, linezolid resistance among these pathogens is still low, typically less than 1%. Thus, the emergence of resistance in clinical isolates should …
