Chest CT scanning is significant in verifying COVID-19 infection patients with clinical symptoms,although uses ionizing radiation. So we aim to investigate the demonstration of relevance andaccuracy chest tomography using a low-dose protocol compared standard auto-modulation protocolof 50 – 210 mAs. Moreover, assess whether any distinguishing signs might help determinethe severity respiratory f...

Background: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the radioprotective effect of Grewia asiatica fruit pulp extract (GAE) on Swiss albino mice exposed to gamma radiation. In the present study radioprotective efficacy of Grewia asiatica (rich in anthocyanin, carotenes, vitamin C, etc.) was studied against radiation induced biochemical alterations in mice cerebrum. Materials and Methods: Fo...

There is increasing awareness of the ubiquitous role of oxidative stress in neurodegenerative disease states. A continuing challenge is to be able to distinguish between oxidative changes that occur early in the disease from those that are secondary manifestations of neuronal degeneration. This perspective highlights the role of oxidative stress in Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's dis...

The International Humanitarian Demining Development (IHHD) concept did not evolve on a haphazard basis. The concept was born out of practical experience in Manica Province, Mozambique during the emergency relief phase between 1993 and 1995. Based on those experiences, and a serious concern that mine clearance was regarded as a purely technical activity with local involvement being relegated to ...

background: fatigue is a common side effect in cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy (rt). radiation-induced fatigue affects the quality of life, but there is no definitive treatment option. in this study, the weight-loaded forced swim test was performed to assess the effect of coenzyme q10 (coq10) on radiation-induced fatigue. materials and methods: a total of 60 rats were divided rando...

Introduction: Radiation countermeasures are defined as use of an agent to minimize the deleterious effects of radiation therapy by administering the compound after the radiation exposure has occurred, regardless of toxicity. In spite of extensive study in this field, yet there is no suitable radioprotector introduced. In this study two naturally occurring antioxidants were stu...
