introduction: the aim of the study was to investigate the effects of curcuma longa (c. longa) extract on adriamycin-induced hepatotoxicity in rat. methods: animals were divided in six groups: control (co), adriamycin (adr), adriamycin with vitamin c (adr+vitc), vitamin c (vit c), c. longa with adriamycin (cl+adr) and without adriamycin (cl-adr). hepatotoxicity was induced by adriamycin 5mg/kg a...

background: the prevalence of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ancas) and anti-cardiolipin antibodies (anti-cl ab) in behcet’s disease (bd) and also their roles in vascular involvement is controversial. objective: to assess the prevalence of ancas and anti-cl ab as well as their correlations with clinical manifestations in iranian patients with bd. methods: in this case/control study, th...

background: one of the most common anomalies in newborn infants is cleft lip and/or cleft palate (cl/p). in spite of several studies about the prevalence of this, no investigation evaluated this prevalence in the west and north-west of iran. with due attention to different ethnic groups in this area, the aim of this study is to investigate whether the distribution of cl/p live births varies reg...

dft calculations were used to investigate adsorptionof  f-, cl-, li+ and na+ ions on the exterior surface of mg12o12 nanocage in the gas phase and water media. the most favorite position for adsorption of the studied anions and cations are atop of mg and o atoms of mg12o12, respectively. the strongest interaction is obtained when fluoride is located atop of mg atom with the adsorption energy of...

results no significant difference was found between the groups regarding bmht rs3797546 gene polymorphism. the c allele was not associated with ns-cl/p (or = 1.27, 95% ci = 0.85-2.79, p = 0.690). conclusions our data suggested that bmht rs3797546 gene polymorphism was not associated with risk/ protection for ns-cl/p in a sample of iranian population. larger studies are required to validate our ...
