background: neuropathic pain (np) is one of the most suffering medical conditions that often fail to respond to certain pain therapy. although its exact etiology is still unknown the role of reactive oxygen species (ros) and oxidative stress were explored by many researchers. neuropathies either central or peripheral lead to painful condition as well as social and economic isolation, thus vario...

background few studies have focused on patients’ characteristics that affects acute kidney injury (aki) after total knee replacement surgery (tkr). objectives the primary objective of this retrospective study was to identify patients’ characteristics associated with aki after tkr. patients and methods between january 2008 and december 2009, 659 patients with a mean age of 67.1 years (range, 39-...

introduction drug-induced liver injury is a frequent cause of hepatic dysfunction. several drugs have been identified to cause autoimmune hepatitis (aih). environmental chemicals are capable of triggering a certain degree of liver injury. however, toxin induced aih is rare. conclusions chronic (long-term) exposures to dichlorvos can lead to aih. a detailed inquiry of medical history and liver b...

• Resting microglia continuously survey the brain environment maintaining homeostasis in physiological conditions. Brain injury, therapeutic irradiation and galactic cosmic ray exposure trigger activation cognitive dysfunctions. Microglia depletion complete repopulation prevent impairments after different injuries to brain. are resident immune cells of central nervous system (CNS). In condition...

Leishmaniasis is a common parasitic disease classified to acute and chronic types based on the duration of the disease. The acute lesion is presented as ulcerated papule and nodule that heal after a few months with an atrophic scar. The chronic form of cutaneous leishmaniasis is a nonhealing lesion that is persistent for more than one year. Here, we describe a chronic case of leishmaniasis deve...

background in recent decades, the incidence of spinal cord injuries has increased. in a systemic review on epidemiology of traumatic spinal cord injury in developing countries reported 25.5/million cases per year. objectives to assess the quality of life (qol) of the veterans among iran-iraq war with chronic spinal cord injuries (sci) and to evaluate long-term impressions of sci on their qualit...

the pathology of spinal cord injury (sci) comprises multiple processes characterized by extensive cell death and glial scar formation, which together limits axonal regeneration. in particular, variations in chronic demyelination of the lesion have been found to be largely independent of injury intensity, suggesting a secondary pathologic origin. this chronic demyelination results in progressive...
