The present research was conducted on 170 rats dividing into two groups. One group received HHKV extract at a dose of 2 g/kg/day continuously for 14 days. The other group received TCTN1 extract at a dose of 3 g/kg/day for 30 days. After 14 and 30 days of experiment, a half of each group received an electrical shock and the remainder didn't receive such treatment Malonyl dialdehyd (MDA) of rat’s...

AIMS Electrical isolation of the pulmonary veins (PVs) has been established in clinical routine as a curative treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF). While catheter ablation carries procedural risks, radiosurgery might be able to non-invasively induce lesions at the PV ostia to block veno-atrial electrical conduction. This porcine feasibility and dose escalation study determined the effect of r...

Background: The interaction between antiepileptic drugs and brain electrical stimulation is a potential therapy to control of seizures in patient with pharmacoresistance to drugs. So, the aim of present study was designed to determine the effect of a sub effective dose of sodium valproate combined with low-frequency electrical stimulation during kindling. Material and Methods: One tripolar ele...

  Clonidine, an α2-adrenergic receptor agonist not only induces analgesia but also prolongs the effects of local anesthetic substances. In the present study the effects of clonidine on spontaneous and formalin-induced electrical activity from dorsal skin nerve were investigated. The results showed that clonidine (0.5 mM) decreased the formalin effect on electrical nerve activity whereas clonidi...

The importance of electrical dose measurement ("dosimetry") during electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) has been gaining recognition. There is a need to explicitly provide full details of the electrical stimulus used during ECT. The conventional sinewave ECT stimulators in use in our country suffer from some limitations in this regard. To overcome these, a new model of ECT instrument was designed to...

Based on the diffusional scattering of pseudophotons, we propose a new mechanism of x-ray radiation from a relativistic charged particle moving in a system consisting of microspheres distributed randomly in a dielectric material. The mechanism leads to a stronger dependence of radiation intensity on the particle energy, gamma = E/mc(2), than that predicted by the transition radiation, and expla...

a b s t r a c t introduction: epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder in which patients experience spontaneous recurrent seizures. although the most commonly recommended therapy is drug treatment, some patients do not achieve adequate control of their seizures on existing drugs. new medications with novel mechanisms of action are needed to help those patients whose seizures are resistant to...

⎯The electrical characteristics of solid state devices such as the bipolar junction transistor (BJT), metaloxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), and other active devices are altered by impinging photon radiation and temperature in the space environment. In this paper, the threshold voltage, the breakdown voltage, and the onresistance for two kinds of MOSFETs (200 V and 100 V of ...
