Introduction The traditional type is high erucic acid rapeseed (HEAR), generally used for cooking in countries like India and Bangladesh, typically contains between 40% and 50 % erucic acid, a monounsaturated omega-9fatty acid, denoted 22:1 ω-9 has undesirable effects on healthspecially on cardiac tissue (Kramer et al., 1982). The normal level of AST, ALT and ALP in rat blood is 45.7-80.8 U/L, ...

human brucellosis is a major health problem in developing countries. a number of patients with human brucellosis do not recover from the acute stage of the disease and pass into the chronic form. since the pathophysiology of this change is not well understood, we studied the t-cell subsets during the acute, subacute and chronic forms of human brucellosis. in this study we found alterations in t...

wheat is a staple food in pakistan. production of wheat is increased with extensive use of phosphate based fertilizers in agricultural fields. activity mass concentration of primordial radionuclides due to use of phosphate fertilizers in soil enhances the external gamma dose and due to the consumption of wheat food grown on these soils also increases the internal dose. different types of soil, ...

foreign body ingestion and aspiration is among the most common causes of emergency department visit associated with high morbidity and mortality. ingested and aspirated denture is rare conditions being scarcely reported in the literature. we herein report a 57-year-old man who presented with 2-day history of liquid and solid dysphagia who was diagnosed to have impacted denture in esophagus sinc...

Dietary protein ingestion following exercise increases muscle protein synthesis rates, stimulates net muscle protein accretion, and facilitates the skeletal muscle adaptive response to prolonged exercise training. Furthermore, recent studies show that protein ingestion before and during exercise also increases muscle protein synthesis rates during resistance- and endurance-type exercise. Theref...

background: the aim of this study was to propose a new stochastic model to study the time course of ethanol elimination in human bodies. methods: the times and amount of alcohol ingested are assumed to be random in controllable intervals. constant elimination rate follows zero order kinetics and is replaced by first order kinetics when the effects of alcohol increase due to alcohol ingestion. s...

ingestion of ciprofloxacin can be associated with esophagitis and esophageal ulcer. we report a 46-yearold man with odynophagia and dysphagia following ciprofloxacin ingestion, with a glance on diagnosis and treatment. also, we propose recommendations for prevention of drug-induced esophagitis, according to shape, size, formulation and their etiologic role on esophagitis.
