D the growing interest in daily hemodialysis (DHD), logistic and economic factors limit its dissemination. Not the least of these factors is the lack of uniform criteria for measuring efficiency. From November 1998 to November 2000, 19 patients were on DHD in our unit. The dialysis prescription was bicarbonate buffer; 6 sessions per week; 2 – 3 hours; blood flow 250 – 350 mL/min; individual K, ...

the purpose of this study was to determine the effect of interval sprint exercise and a detraining period on lipid peroxidation (mda) and the response of antioxidant system (frap, uric acid, bilirubin and total protein). for this purpose, 35 male rats were divided randomly into two groups: sprint group (experimental) (n=20) and control group (n=15, without any training). experimental group trai...

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of 12 weeks resistance training on G6Pase expression in liver cells, as well as glucose and insulin levels in type 2 diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 16 wistar rats were selected as the research sample. After injection of nicotinamide and streptozocin to induce diabetes, the rats were randomly divided...
