[ 1 ] - The Relationship Between Breast Feeding and Body Mass Index and Blood Pressure in Pre-School Children
Introduction: It is generally accepted that breast feeding has a beneficial effect on the health of infants and children. The evidence that breast feeding protects against obesity is inconclusive also the influence of breast feeding on blood pressure in later life is uncertain. The major aim of this study was to assess the association between method of infant breast feeding and components of t...
[ 2 ] - بیماریهای مادرزادی قلب در نوزادان مادران دیابتیک: یک بررسی اکوکاردیوگرافیک
Introduction: Despite the discovery of insulin and current improvement in diabetics care, congenital malformations in diabetics are still more frequent than in the general population. The aim of this study was to identify congenital heart dieases (CHD) in the newborns of diabetic mothers (IDMS). Methods: In our prospective study, color doppler echocardiography was performed in 75 consecutive f...
[ 3 ] - سیر بالینی نقص بین بطنی (VSD)
Background and purpose: The purpose of the study was to asses the natural and clinical course of isolated ventricular defect in children. Materials and methods: Patients and Methods: From 1997 to 2011 we prospectively studied a total of 218 infants and children diagnosed as isolated ventricular septal defects. The Çhi-squar or Fisher exact Test and ÂNÔVÂ were used to compare the difference...
[ 4 ] - The Relation between Blood Pressure and Body Mass Index in Iranian School Age Children
Background: Association between body mass indexes (BMI) and blood pressure have been observed, but remains poorly understood. BMI is shown to be a measure of overweight status and is applicable to all populations. In this cross-sectional study we have examined the relationship between the BMI and blood pressure in school age children. Methods: This study comprised of 486 boys and 463 girls at a...
[ 5 ] - An Aptamer-based Biosensor for Troponin I Detection in Diagnosis of Myocardial Infarction
Background: Acute myocardial infarction (MI) accounts for one third of deaths. Cardiac troponin I (TnI) is a reliable biomarker of cardiac muscle tissue injury and is employed in the early diagnosis of MI.Objectives: In this study, a molecular method is introduced to early diagnosis of MI by rapid detection of TnI.Materials and Methods: The detection method was based on electrochemical aptasens...
[ 6 ] - Comparative study of pulse oximetry, physical examination and echocardiography results in the diagnosis of congenital heart defects in neonates in the first 24 hours of life
Introduction: Congenital heart disease is the most common congenital anomaly. About 50% of Neonates with congenital heart disease are asymptomatic in the first few days of life and are not diagnosed on initial examination. Pulse oximetry is a non-invasive method that can show the percentage of oxygen saturation in the blood and congenital heart disease. Methods: This was a descriptive cross-se...
