    Abstract Novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by a nonsegmented positive sense RNA, enveloped RNA virus that belongs to the family of β-coronaviridae. This virus shall cause acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) which consequently leads to breathing difficulty and need to admit to intensive care units (ICUs). The current conventional treatment combination in most of the hospitals in Iran includes azithromycin 500 + naproxen 500 + vitamin C 1,000 + Zinc + vitamin D3 1,000. In this case reports (

    Abstract Novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by a nonsegmented positive sense RNA, enveloped RNA virus that belongs to the family of β-coronaviridae. This virus shall cause acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) which consequently leads to breathing difficulty and need to admit to intensive care units (ICUs). The current conventional treatment combination in most of the hospitals in Iran includes azithromycin 500 + naproxen 500 + vitamin C 1,000 + Zinc + vitamin D3 1,000. In this case reports ( n  = 4), we would like to report significant findings in course of COVID-19 treatment reported to our clinic on August 8 and 9, 2020; patients presented as walk in and were advised house isolation and complete bed rest as there were no signs of lung involvement and their overall condition was stable. By the inclusion of cephalexin 500 in treatment combination, patients who received cephalexin 500 for 5 days along with other medicines did not develop any lung involvement and breathing complications. Cephalexin is the gold standard in upper and lower respiratory tract infections and here also shall play a vital role besides other conventional therapies. Azithromycin is a macrodial antibiotic working via the ABCB1 gene pathway. As of date, there is no clear evidence of pharmacogenomics data in COVID-19 patients. More research needs to be performed in COVID-19 before any sort of pharmacogenomics tests could be advised.

    Abstract Gallstones in western countries are primarily composed of cholesterol. However, mixed or pigment stones, which contain a higher proportion of bilirubin, are more frequently seen in developing nations and Asia than in western countries. Abdominal and shoulder tip pains (STPs) are common complaints following the standard laparoscopic cholecystectomy procedure. To date, all pain management modalities have proven variable outcomes. This prospective randomized study included 82 patients who underwent elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The control group received 20 mL of normal saline, whereas the study group received a 20-mL instillation of 0.5% bupivacaine at the gallbladder bed after surgical resection. The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was used to analyze abdominal pain and STP. The mean age ranged from 20 to 80 years. Abdominal VAS at 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, and 48 hours were statistically insignificant. The majority were discharged on postoperative day 1 (32 studies, 37 control). Follow-up VAS after 1 week for STP VAS and abdominal pain VAS in both groups were statistically insignificant. Even with small numbers of a well-conducted randomized trial, we demonstrated that bupivacaine irrigation at the gallbladder bedpost laparoscopic cholecystectomy does not affect pain relief.

    Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic had anomalous yet inevitable impacts on the world's economies, healthcare systems, and all other aspects of life. Researchers began to uncover hidden routes to find a new horizon of hope using underrated resources. Biosurfactants are sustainable biomolecules with an active surface, unique characteristics, and extensive uses.

    Abstract Nonsegmented positive-sense RNA enveloped RNA severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus can result in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This virus is from β-coronaviridae family of viruses. The common signs and symptoms of COVID-19 include pyrexia, cough, dyspnea, fatigue, myalgia, cephalgia, diarrhea, and nausea. Physicians and dentists around the world could directly link the COVID-19 and oral diseases such as ageusia and anosmia. After time passes, different aspects of symptoms of the diseases have been discovered. Research suggests that the oral cavity is the most vulnerable region for the virus because of angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) receptor abundance in the mouth. In this case report (no. of patients = 6), we would like to report significant findings in patients who were diagnosed with COVID-19 reported to our clinic during May 2021 complaining about the oral manifestation of it such as xerostomia, gingival inflammation, and cracked teeth. All patients are younger than 40 years with no history of dental complaints and oral diseases. Fortunately, these symptoms are not life threatening and treatable/manageable by current treatment options. To date, there is no clear proof of how and via which pathway, SARS-CoV-2 genomic blueprint causes the oral manifestation of COVID-19 beside ACE2 receptor which is the only known biopathway for such incidents.

    Abstract Chromium (Cr) is an essential trace element which found naturally in a daily diet and available in the form of supplementary tablets to boost disorders like diabetes mellitus (DM) and functions like lipid metabolism and beneficial on depression too. Diabetes is one of the most prevalent endocrine diseases or in other words, the most severe metabolic syndrome (MS), which associated with high production of free-radicals which is out of bodies detoxifying machine capacity or high oxidative stress (HOS), vasculitis and elevated lipid profile. many research papers and clinical trials published about the significance of chromium on biological activities, pre and post clinical.
