background: the association between lipid peroxidation biomarkers and adipocytokines is hypothesized in preeclampsia but little is known about it. objective: the present study was undertaken to determine the association of lipid peroxidation biomarkers measured by the levels of 8-isoprostane and malondialdehyde with adipocytokines leptin and adiponectin in maternal serum of preeclamptic women. ...

background and purpose: cervical cancer is the most prevalent cancer among women in the world. cervical cancer is no symptoms and can be treated if diagnosed in the first stage of the disease. the aim of this study was to survey the affecting factors of the pap smears test on perceptual factors, enabling and reinforcing (pen-3) model constructs in women. materials and methods: this study was a ...

in this research, the influence of adding micro- and nano- sized calcium carbonate powders to nylon-66 was investigated. mechanical properties of micro and nano- composites, including tensile strength, elongation, and young’s modulus, before and after ageing, were determined and analyzed. for this purpose, micro- and nano-sized caco3 particles were used as fillers to prepare micro-composites (c...

this study was conducted to study of morpho-physiological responses of robinia pseudoacacia l. seedlings under drought stress by irrigation period at 4 levels (intervals of 4, 8, 12 and 16 days). the experiment was performed as completely randomized design in a greenhouse environment. results indicated that all studied traits were affected by water stress, except water use efficiency (wue). the...

in order to determine the lipids and lipoproteins profiles in iranian khouzestanian arab horses, blood samples were collected from the jugular vein of 77 horses(47 female, 30 male) from different age groups(< 6, 7-12, 12-36, 37-60, 61- 69 and > 96 months). serum cholesterol and triglyceride were measured by enzymatic methods and lipoproteins by precipitation methods. the results were analyzed b...

zagros forests are a treasure of various valuable species of oak in iran and the world. long-term misuse in the past has caused severe degradation in the zagros forests. recently these forests have become national but misuses by local people to make living because of poverty and unemployment are continued. in order to reduce degradation and improve sustainability, ecological capability for exte...

background: colorectal cancer is one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality in the world. it has been suggested that tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (timp-1) plays a particular role in cancer promotion. the objective of the present study was to compare the effect of repeated measurement of carcinoembryonic antigen (cea) and timp-1 plasma levels in a follow-up response t...

this work described an efficient pseudo four-component synthesis of (10e)-n-benzylidene-2-phenylh-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-amine derivatives from 2-aminopyridin, malononitrile and arylaldehydes in the presence of naoh under solvent-free and conventional heating condition in good to excellent yields. a wide range of aromatic aldehydes would easily undergo condensations with 2-aminopyridin and mal...

plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) is an alternative to chemical pesticides against harmful microorganisms especially soil-borne diseases. rhizoctonia solani is one of the most important soil-borne fungal pathogens that causes serious damages to important crops. in this study, to screen successful pseudomonas bacterial isolates, the inhibition of pathogen growth was evaluated in-vitro....

although farmers’ psychological empower is a core prominent for development but classic development approaches emphasis on land, capital and human forces for development. however, the new development models are focusing on every single person development in a community. this approach is followed up under theme of empowerment which is developing by doing researches in different disciplines such ...
