Gut Microbiota’s Oxalate-Degrading Activity and Its Implications on Cardiovascular Health in Patients with Kidney Failure: A Pilot Prospective Study Open
Background and Objectives: The present study aims to investigate the association between gut microbiota’s oxalate-degrading activity (ODA) and the risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) over a three-year follow-up period in a coho…
Efficient Questioning in Teaching Mathematics: Teachers’ Attitudes and Practices Open
The paper is an exposure to the latest practices of questioning in teaching and learning math (TLM) on the basis of psychological-semiotic approach. Emphasis is placed on the degree of semantic support of the expected answer when formulati…
Multi-probiotic consumption sex-dependently interferes with MSG-induced obesity and concomitant phagocyte pro-inflammatory polarization in rats: Food for thought about personalized nutrition Open
Epidemic scope which obesity has reached in many countries necessitates shifting the emphasis in medicine from traditional reaction to individualized and personalized prevention. Numerous trials convincingly prove sexual dimorphism of obes…
Nigella sativa oil of «diana» sort in the therapy of antibiotics simulated dysbiosis Open
Dysbiotic disorders of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) are one of the urgent problems today. There are a number of directions and means aimed at restoring the normobiota of the GIT, comprising of probiotics. An alternative to them can be …
Pilot testing for long-term impact of glycerol-induced acute kidney injury on oxalate homeostasis in rats Open
There is a general lack of research on the long-term effects of acute kidney injury (AKI) on oxalate-degrading bacteria (ODB) and their total oxalate-degrading activity (ODA) in fecal microbiota. In the present pilot study, we separately e…
Synbiotic Supplementation And Oxalate Homeostasis In Rats: Focus On Microbiota Oxalate-Degrading Activity Open
Background The present study aimed (i) to evaluate whether ceftriaxone treatment could affect not only intestinal oxalate-degrading bacteria number but their total activity to degrade oxalate and influence oxalate homeostasis in rats, (ii)…
A potential role of fecal oxalate-degrading activity in oxalate homeostasis in end-stage renal disease patients; a descriptive pilot study Open
Introduction: End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients have significant differences in plasma oxalic acid (POx) concentration under the same treatment conditions. Objectives: In the present study, we adopted the method of redoximetric titra…
The oxalate-degrading activity of Lactobacillus spp. isolated from different sources as the potential probiotic modulators for oxalate homeostasis Open
Background: Currently, diseases of the urinary system are observed in 3.5–4% of the world's population. According to WHO, the number of people suffering from this pathology doubles every 7–10 years. To date, hyperoxaluria is considered as …
EFFECT OF ANTIBIOTICOTHERAPY ON THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF OXALATE-DEGREADING BACTERIA IN THE RATS INTESTINAL TRACT Open
Aim. To determine the quantity of oxalate-degrading bacteria (ODB) in fecal biopsy and mucosa-associated microbiota of the colon and small intestine of rats. Methods. Study was conducted on male Wistar rats (weight 170–200 g, n=7). The obj…
Dependence of quantitative composition of oxalate-degrading bacteria in fecal biopsy of rats on the quantity of oxalates in the diet Open
Changes in the composition of intestinal microbiota, namely the reduction of microorganisms capable of metabolizing oxalates, is one of the main factors in the development of hyperoxaluria. The purpose of this study was to determine the qu…
MP013THE ANTIBIOTIC PROPHYLAXIS AFFECT ON THE COLON OXALOBACTER FORMIGENES COLONIZATION IN PATIENTS WITH RECURRENT PYELONEPHRITIS AND HYPEROXALURIA (PILOT STUDY) Open
INTRODUCTION AND AIMS: Nephrolithiasis and prenephrolithiasis state often coexist with recurrent pyelonephritis. Antibiotic therapy and long-term antibiotic prophylaxis can disturb the balance in oxalate-degrading bacteria in colon and ind…
COLON OXALATE-DEGRADING BACTERIA COLONIZATION IN PATIENTS WITH RECURRENT PYELONEPHRITIS AND ITS RELATIONSHIP WITH ADMINISTRATION OF ANTIBIOTICS (PILOT STUDY) Open
Antibiotic therapy and long-term antibiotic prophylaxis affect the normal flora of the gastrointestinal tract in the patients with recurrent pyelonephritis. It may disturb the balance in oxalate-degrading bacteria in colon and induce hyper…
The effect of multiprobiotic “Symbiter acidophilus” on the intestinal microflora and functional activity of peritoneal macrophages in rats with glutamate-induced obesity Open
Significant decrease in number of members of Lactobacillus genus and the increase in the number of types of aerobic microorganisms E. coli and S. aureus in the faeces and in the biopsy of colonic wall were observed in rats with monosodium …
