eristalis tenax , belonging to order diptera, family syrphidae seldomly causes in­tes­tinal myiasis. intestinal myiasis caused by e. tenax larvae is a rare manifesta­tion found in both humans and other vertebrate animals. we report a 22-year-old woman presented with this myiasis. the larva in her stool sample was identified as e. tenax related to its typical morphology and authentic clues. lack...

We study growing networks in which each link carries a certain weight (randomly assigned at birth and fixed thereafter). The weight of a node is defined as the sum of the weights of the links attached to the node, and the network grows via the simplest weight-driven rule: A newly added node is connected to an already existing node with the probability which is proportional to the weight of that...

Aim: The objective of the current study is to investigate the antinoceptive effect of Pentazocineon streptozotocininduced diabetic rats. Methods: Diabetes mellitus was induced by using streptozotocin, dose of 50mg/kg body weight through lateral tail vein injection. After 48 hours, rat with blood glucose range of 200–300mg were used for experiment. NPH – insulin was given by subcutaneous injecti...

This study aims to determine the effect of litter size and mother weight on dairy goat milk production. The research method uses survey method, data collection is carried out by purposive sampling with criteria Kaligesing goats that have been lactation as many 100 tail. variables analyzed were identity farmer, size, production weight. Data analysis was descriptive simple correlation analysis. r...

Astaxanthin (AX) is a carotenoid that exerts potent antioxidant activity and acts in the lipid bilayer. This study aimed to investigate effects of AX on muscle-atrophy-mediated disturbance mitochondria, which have Tail suspension was used establish muscle-atrophied mouse model. diet fed tail-suspension mice prevented loss muscle weight, inhibited decrease myofiber size, restrained increase hydr...

Tail docking of feedlot cattle is a management practice used in some confined, slatted-floor feedlots of the midwestern United States. Justification for tail docking in these management systems is to reduce tail injuries and their sequelae and improve performance, but limited evidence exists to support these claims. The primary objective of this study was to determine the effect of tail docking...

Menopause is associated with a decrease in the level of sex hormones such as ovarian estradiol and progesterone and can cause various symptoms such as depression, hot flash, fatigue, heart palpitations, and headache. Furthermore, there is a risk of developing complications such as osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases, Alzheimer's disease, and ovarian cancer. Schisandrae Fructus (SF) is widely ...

Infants born preterm or small for gestational age have elevated rates of morbidity and mortality. Using birth certificate records in Texas from 2002 to 2004 and Environmental Protection Agency air pollution estimates, we relate the quantile functions of birth weight and gestational age to ozone exposure and multiple predictors, including parental age, race, and education level. We introduce a s...

This study examined the effectiveness of resistance exercise as a countermeasure to non-weight-bearing-induced alterations in the absolute peak force, normalized peak force (force/fiber cross-sectional area), peak stiffness, and maximal shortening velocity (Vo) of single permeabilized type I soleus muscle fibers. Adult rats were subjected to the following treatments: normal weight bearing (WB),...

Gold nanoparticles have potential applications in biomedicine, but one of the important concerns is about their safety. Most toxicology data are derived from in vitro studies and may not reflect in vivo responses. Here, an animal toxicity study of 13.5 nm gold nanoparticles in mice is presented. Animal survival, weight, hematology, morphology, and organ index are characterized at different conc...
