[ 1 ] - Curcumin enhances liver SIRT3 expression in the rat model of cirrhosis
Objective(s): Bill duct ligation (BDL) is a representative model of biliary cholestasis in animals. Curcumin has a protective effect on the liver; however, its underlying mechanisms are not completely known. This study explored the hepatoprotective activity of curcumin on hepatic damage via measuring the expression of sirtuin3 (SIRT3), AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), carnitine palmitoyltra...
[ 2 ] - Risk Factors for Sensorineural Hearing Loss in Neonatal Hyperbilirubinemia
Introduction: Hyperbilirubinemia is a common neonatal problem with toxic effects on the nervous system that can cause hearing impairment. This study was conducted to assess the risk factors for sensorineural hearing loss and other coexisting problems in icteric infants. Materials and Methods: In a case-control study, 200 term infants with bilirubin levels higher than 20 mg/dl admitted to the...
[ 3 ] - Current Concepts in Scaffolding for Bone Tissue Engineering
Bone disorders are of significant worry due to their increased prevalence in the median age. Scaffold-based bonetissue engineering holds great promise for the future of osseous defects therapies. Porous composite materials andfunctional coatings for metallic implants have been introduced in next generation of orthopedic medicine for tissueengineering. While osteoconductive materials such as hyd...

Background: Massage therapy has been commonly practiced as a traditional complementary therapy in neonates. This study was designed to evaluate the effects of massage on decreasing bilirubin levels in infants undergoing phototherapy. Materials and Methods A total of 60 term icteric infan...
[ 7 ] - Predictive Value of Biochemical and Hematological Markers in Prognosis of Asphyxic Infants
Background: Asphyxia is one of the main causes of infant mortality and long-term neurologic complications. This cohort study was aimed to compare the diagnostic value of the hematologic and biochemical factors in prediction of prognosis of asphyxia according to the high prevalence of asphyxia and its complications. Methods: In this cohort with two-year follow up study with availability samplin...
