changes in the fatty acid composition and biochemical indices of mackerel (which has a substantial lipid content) and shark (which has negligible lipid content) fillets stored at - 18°c for up to six months were measured. lipid content was measured (6.35% and 1.38%) in mackerel and shark, respectively; however it decreased during frozen storage in both fish species. in analysis of fatty acids t...

Ramadan Fasting during the month of Ramadan is a religious obligation, practiced by millions of people around the world. Ramadan fasting is essentially a fundamental change in lifestyle for one lunar month. This type of fasting may have significant effects on lipid profile. Although there is no scientific consensus about the effects of fasting on cardiovascular risks such as changes in lipid pr...

       The study was designed with an aim to evaluate the protective effects of reduced glutathione on cyclophosphamide induced lipid peroxidation and also changes in cholesterol content. Goat liver and white New Zealand rabbit were used as lipid source for the models. Lipid peroxidation study was performed by measuring the malondial...

The potential to cause tissue damage by metal ions is the matter of widespread investigation. Titanium salts are widely used in industry for ceramic painting, in pharmacy for tablet coating and making chemical sunscreens and in medicine as photo catalysts with bactericidal activity. This may address the idea that the exposure to these salts could play a role in metabolic disorders. In this stud...

background: bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy in women may lead to metabolic consequences in patients. this study was performed to determine the glucose tolerance and lipid profile after menopause resulting from bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. methods: from september 2011 to march 2013, 31 women participants aged 46-52 years who underwent hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for beni...

the present study was conducted to test the effect of origanum majoranum extract (ome) of leaves on alterations induced in a model of type 2 diabetic rats. adult male wistar rats were fed high fat diet for 3 weeks and injected a single dose of streptozotocin (35 mg/kg) intraperitoneally to induce type 2 diabetic rats. diabetic rats were given aqueous extract of ome in a dose of 20 mg/kg orally ...

Discussion: A large part of both clinical and subclinical lesions found in our daily work are benign and correspond with fibrocystic changes (FCC). This entity is complex and part exhibit traits that define characteristically in MRI and diagnose correctly, but there is another small group of changes that can take the image aspect of cancer. From a complex case, we review the main aspects of the...
