The hypoglycemic effect of ethanolic extract of Casearia esculenta was investigated on alloxan induced diabetic rats. The blood glucose levels were measured at 0, 1, 2 and 3 h after the treatment. The ethanolic extract of C. esculenta (250 mg/kg) reduced the blood glucose of normal rat from 85.50±1.22 to 64.67±3.27 mg/dl, 3 h after oral administration of the extract (P

diazinon is an organophosphate which is extensively used in trade and agriculture. due to its widespread application, its toxicity is common. several studies have shown that organophosphates are able to induce oxidative stress by generating free radicals and depletion of endogenous antioxidants. pomegranate seed oil (pso) possesses anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. in this study, the e...

BACKGROUND Relationships between plasma morphine concentrations and neonatal responses to endotracheal tube (ETT) suctioning are unknown in preterm neonates. METHODS Ventilated preterm neonates (n=898) from 16 centres were randomly assigned to placebo (n=449) or morphine (n=449). After an i.v. loading dose (100 microg kg(-1)), morphine infusions [23-26 weeks postmenstrual age (PMA) 10 microg ...

the objective of this study was to determine the effect of calcium borogluconate injection 24, 48 hours prepartum and immediately postpartum on dry matter intake at day of calving, milk yield, and as well on blood metabolites during the first 21 days of postpartum in cows fed anionic diets. thirty six lactating dairy cows were arrenged by parity (1, 2, 3+) and allocated to three subcutaneous in...

The metabolic equivalent (MET) is a widely used physiological concept that represents a simple procedure for expressing energy cost of physical activities as multiples of resting metabolic rate (RMR). The value equating 1 MET (3.5 ml O2 x kg(-1) x min(-1) or 1 kcal x kg(-1) x h(-1)) was first derived from the resting O2 consumption (VO2) of one person, a 70-kg, 40-yr-old man. Given the extensiv...

A field experiment was carried out in the agricultural season 2021-2022 one of farming fields region Muqdadiya, Al-Harouniya district, located 40 km northeast Baquba district Diyala governorate. (Soil Survey Staff, 2006). It is at a longitude 53° 34' N and latitude 56° 04° 45° S. The aimed to study effect adding chemical organic fertilizers spraying seaweed extracts on NPKS concentrations cauli...

VEGF inhibitors, including receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors, are used as adjunct therapies in a number of cancer treatments. An emerging issue with these drugs is that most cause hypertension. To gain insight into the physiological mechanisms involved, we evaluated their regional hemodynamic effects in conscious rats. Male Sprague Dawley rats (350-450 g) were chronically implanted with pulse...
