W e would like to think that dyspnea, like pain, serves as an early-warning sign of developing disease, respiratory or cardiac. To be effective as an early-warning system, dyspnea should be absent in the absence of disease, its severity should correlate with the severity of lung function impairment, and it should be unpleasant enough to call attention to itself. However, when lung function cann...
متن کاملDoes Biosynthetic Silver Nanoparticles Are More Stable With Lower Toxicity than Their Synthetic Counterparts?
Control of size and shape is a challenge in nanoparticle synthesis. Synthetic and biosynthetic (both extracellular and intracellular) methods are used to prepare silver nanoparticle (SNP). In this study, the behavior of three strains of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) was investigated in the presence of silver nitrate intra- and extracellularly. S. aureus strains biosynthesized SNPs intracell...

متن کاملAcute Effects of Ecstasy on Memory Are more Extensive than Chronic Effects
Introduction: Exposure to 3, 4- methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) could lead to serotonergic system toxicity in the brain. This system is responsible for learning and memory functions. Studies show that MDMA causes memory impairment dose-dependently and acutely. The present study was designed to evaluate the chronic and acute effects of MDMD on spatial memory and acquisition of passive avoid...
