Introduction: Estrogen, a crucial hormone during pregnancy, acts through two types of receptors. The estrogen receptor alpha and beta (ESR-α and ESR-β) are more abundant and exists in all human reproductive systems. Association of ESR-α and ESR-β genes polymorphisms has been reported in some reproductive problems such as spontaneous abortion, endometriosis-related infertility, and in vitro fert...

The adrenomimetic drugs mimic the effects of adrenergic sympathetic nerve stimulation on sympathetic effectors; these drugs are also referred to as sympathomimetic agents. The adrenergic transmitter norepinephrine and the adrenal medullary hormone epinephrine also are included under this broad heading. The adrenomimetic drugs are an important group of therapeutic agents that can be used to main...

Background: Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is one of the predictors of improvement in handling rheumatoid arthritis. This study was designed to define and compare the time of achieving normal ESR and also the percentage for the normalization of this marker at several points of time in two different combination therapies.Methods: Fifty-two rheumatoid arthritis patients randomly received me...

Background and Objective: Measurement of inflammatory markers and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) may contribute to the evaluation of lung involvement severity. This study aimed to evaluate relationship between severity of primary lung involvement with highest level of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and LDH in patients with COVID-19. Materials and Methods: This descriptive-analytical study w...

Asmussen-Kroese [1] Monte Carlo estimators of P (Sn > u) and P (SN > u) are known to work well in rare event settings when Sn is the sum of n i.i.d. heavy-tailed random variables, and N is a non-negative integer-valued random variable independent of the Xi. In this paper we show how to improve the Asmussen-Kroese estimators of both probabilities when the Xi are non-negative. We also apply our i...

Abstract Background Degos disease is a rare vascular disorder with cutaneous-limited form, benign atrophic papulosis (BAP), and systemic variant, malignant (MAP). Despite the poor prognosis of MAP, no study has established features associated disease. Objectives The aims this systematic review were to: (1) summarize clinical treatments implemented for patients MAP BAP (2) identify laboratory fa...

background: erythrocyte sedimentation rate (esr) is one of the predictors of improvement in handling rheumatoid arthritis. this study was designed to define and compare the time of achieving normal esr and also the percentage for the normalization of this marker at several points of time in two different combination therapies.methods: fifty-two rheumatoid arthritis patients randomly received me...
