In this study many researches related to mixing and displacement ventilations in indoor and office rooms were addressed. Good ventilation is one of the most important requirements for space occupants to maintain appropriate environmental conditions, as ventilation increases thermal comfort and improves indoor air quality. However, the studies on mixing ventilation systems based on occupied density have been highlighted in the present work. Improvement of the indoor environment is economically efficient when health and productivity are taken into account. The parts of a room that a person occupies must be characterized by speed and air temperatures suitable for the occupants of the space. In the occupied zone, fresh, clean supply air must reach all its parts, and no stagnation areascan be found there. A group of field studies conducted showed, significant levels ofdissatisfaction with the indoor environment in many buildings despite satisfying the typical ventilation requirements, where there are still many complaints regarding poor indoor air quality and diseases related to poor ventilation of buildings. In enclosed spaces, ventilation is one of the essential methods used to control indoor air quality (IAQ). In buildings, ventilation has an impact on the structure and, as a result, on the people who utilize it. A deteriorated indoor environment increases sick building syndrome (SBS), respiratory illnesses, and reduces comfort and productivity.

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is common both in the diabetic and non-diabetic patients. The widespread use of antimicrobial agents leads to emergence of resistant microorganisms. Since the pattern of bacterial resistance is constantly changing, the monitoring of the antimicrobial susceptibilities of the predominantly isolated organisms becomes more important. Aim of this study was to determine the etiologic agents and their antibiotic sensitivity pattern in both diabetic and non-diabetic patients with urinary tract infection (UTI). A total of 288 diabetics (196 female and 92 males) and 63 non diabetic patients (43 female and 20 males) with symptomatic UTI were included in this study. Among the study cases, 43.8% diabetic patients and 42.9% non-diabetic patients had positive growth from urine. Rate of isolation of Escherichia coli in diabetic was less (61.8%) compared to non diabetic (77.8%). Rate of other organisms isolated in diabetic and non diabetic patients were respectively: Klebsiella sp 6.9% vs 3.7%, Enterococcus 12.2% vs3.7%, Pseudomonas species 3.8% vs 0%, Candida species 4.6% versus 3.7%, Staphylococcus aureus 4.6% versus 7.4% etc. E coli isolated from diabetic patient was significantly (p
