Background: The guar, known as Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L., is an annual, summer plant of the legume family and importance guar a food, industrial medicinal product new in cultivation pattern. Methods: This combined experiment was conducted factorial based on randomized complete block design with three replications during two consecutive years (2020-2021) under climatic conditions Jiroft area (K...

Objectives To determine if a diabetes prevention program (DPP) delivered by a commercial weight management provider using a UK primary care referral pathway could reduce the progression to type 2 diabetes (T2D) in those diagnosed with non-diabetic hyperglycemia (NDH-being at high risk of developing T2D). Research design This is a quasi-experimental translational research study. Methods 14 p...

The objective of this study was to assess the effects of excessive weight gain during pregnancy on the outcome of cesarean delivery. It was a cohort study comparing the outcome of cesarean delivery between 56 pregnant women with excessive weight gain during pregnancy and 75 pregnant women with no excessive weight gain during pregnancy, consecutively recruited at the Yaoundé Gyneco-Obstetric and...

Five-hundred and fourteen calves subjected to the stresses of marketing and shipping from Florida to New Mexico were used to study performance after arrival at the feedlot. Flaked milo diets containing 50 and 75% concentrates promoted more rapid recovery of purchase weight and more efficient gains than a diet containing 25% concentrates. Free-choice alfalfa hay with the flaked milo diets reduce...

The antioxidant effects of vitamins C and E on cryptorchidism-induced oxidative stress were investigated in male Sprague-Dawley rats. Forty rats (200-250 g) were randomly divided in a blinded fashion into five groups (n = 8). Group 1 was sham operated and treated with vehicle (corn-oil, 10 mL/kg). Groups 2, 3, 4, and 5 were rendered unilaterally cryptorchid and treated with vehicle (10 mL/kg), ...

for the first time, a spectrum of morphological abnormalities have been produced in developingmouse embryos (n=50), by injecting (ip) 75 and 100 mg/kg of maternal body weight of a new quinazolinonederivative, 4(3h)quinazolinone-2-propyl-2-phenylethyl(qppe), on days 9, 10 and 11 of gestation.measurements of the length of the crown-rump (cr), weight of body of the embryos and placenta on day 17sh...

to study the effect of urea application in safflower (carthamus tinctorius) and determination of effective traits on its yield, a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design in three replications was conducted in tabriz, iran, during 2012. studied factors were urea rate levels as 100, 150 and 200 kg/ha and urea application times 100% in sowing time, 50% sowing time + 50% stem...

Several halocarbons have been shown to cause full-litter resorption (FLR) in Fischer-344 rats when administered orally in corn oil. Since halocarbons often occur as contaminants of drinking water, we sought to determine the influence of the vehicle, aqueous versus lipid, on the developmental toxicity of two of these agents. In separate assays, bromodichloromethane (BDCM) and carbon tetrachlorid...

A piezoelectric sensor is a typical self-powered sensor. With the advantages of high sensitivity, frequency band, signal-to-noise ratio, simple structure, light weight, and reliable operation, it has gradually been applied to field smart wearable devices. Here, we first report flexible (FPS) based on tungsten disulfide (WS2) monolayers that generate electricity when subjected human movement. Th...

Epidemiologic studies of colorectal neoplasia have usually examined body mass index as a risk factor, but not other aspects of obesity. During 1991-1993, the authors obtained weight histories and comprehensive covariate data from men and women aged 50-75 years who underwent sigmoidoscopy at a health maintenance organization in southern California. Using 483 cases with adenomas and 483 controls,...
