background: the aim of this study was to investigate muscle damage indicators and electromyography activities of quadriceps muscles at 25° of hip flexion in untrained healthy females after an eccentric exercise induced muscle fiber damage.   methods : a total of 14 healthy females participated in this pre-experimental study. the subjects performed maximal eccentric quadriceps contractions at 25...

Background: Fire and explosion hazards are extremely important in processing units. This study was performed to identify the risk centers, the potential damage caused by fire and explosion, and the days of production cessation in the processing company. Materials and Methods: The present qualitative case study was conducted using Dow’s index in 2015. The fire and explosion hazard index...

Recent studies have shown that the increase in creatine kinase (CK) in lumbar spinal fluid (CSF) can effectively predict the outcome of cerebral ischemia after cardiac arrest. In the present investigation maximum CSF-CK concentrations in 40 patients who died more than 3 days after successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation were related to the histologic brain damage. The level of consciousness wa...
