Immunity to Hepatitis B Vaccine in Thalassaemic Patients based on the Time Passed from Vaccination
Background & Aims: Hepatitis B virus is one of the causes of acute and chronic hepatitis. Due to multiple hospitalization and blood transfusion, thalassaemic patients are at higher risk of this infection. Duration of the immunity after vaccination in this high-risk group and the need for booster vaccination is uncertain. The aim of this study was to find antibody titration and immunity to Hepat...
متن کاملChanges in the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Gonadal Axis in Adult Male Rats Poisoned with Proteus and Biscaya Insecticides
Background: Insecticides may have negative effects on reproductive organs. Given the interaction between leptin and the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis, we sought to investigate the changes in leptin and the HPG axis in adult male rats poisoned with Proteus and Biscaya insecticides. Methods: Our experimental subjects were 110 adult male Wistar rats (80–90 days of age; average weight=2...
متن کاملEffect of Camphor on Pituitary-Gonadal Hormonal Axis and Oogenesis in Adult Female Rats
Background & Objective: Camphor stimulates the nervous system and the circulatory system, reduces lactation, and prevents conception and embryo embedding. We investigated the effects of camphor on the pituitary-gonadal hormonal axis and concentration of steroidal hormones. Materials & Methods: The parameters investigated were concentrations of LH, FSH, estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone...
متن کاملAlpha-thalassaemic hydrops fetalis.
Concentrations of total protein, albumin, colloid osmotic pressure, and immunoglobulins G and M were measured in the umbilical venous plasma of 4 infants with alpha-thalassaemic hydrops fetalis. Total protein, albumin, and colloid osmotic pressure concentrations were low, and these are likely to contributory factors in the formation of fetal oedema. Immunoglobulin G levels were low suggesting a...
متن کاملEffect of Achillea millefolium L.extract on spermatogenesis and H-G axis in adult Balb/C mice
Background: By the respect of some difficulties that were produced by high population we must have some information about methods that can control population. Materials and methods: In this investigation the effects of Achillea millefolium L.extract on spermatogenesis in adult Balb/ C mice were studied. The alcoholic (ethanolic) exract of flowers was prepared. The lethal (LD50) and sublethal ...
