introduction: in ramadan, healthy adult muslims are obliged to fast. prolonged fasting increase gastric acid and pepsin levels, which promote the risk of duodenal ulcer perforation (dup). effects of ramadan fasting on dup have not been thoroughly studied yet, and the limited number of studies investigating the impact of ramadan fasting on dup yielded discrepant results. this study aimed to eval...

background peripheral nerve repair is often complicated by fibroblastic scar formation, nerve dysfunction, and traumatic neuroma formation. use of silicone may improve outcomes of these repairs. in this study, we tried to evaluate effectiveness of silicone gel on rats’ sciatic nerve repair, axon regeneration and scar formation around and in the nervous tissues. methods this experimental study w...

objectives: repairing composite restorations is a challenging procedure especially when two different types of composites are used. this study aimed to compare the repair strength of silorane-based composite (sc) (filtek p90) with that of preheated sc, methacrylate composite (mc)(z250), flowable mc (filtek supreme plus) and different adhesive/composite combinations. materials and methods : eigh...

background: germline mutations in mmr genes are reported to be present in more than 70% of hnpcc cases. but, there is a paucity of data regarding the importance of defect of mmr system in the gastric cancer in general. so, in this study, we used ihc stain formlh1,msh2, pms2 andmsh6 to reveal profile ofmmr expression in patients with gastric cancer. materials and methods: this study was performe...

background: colorectal cancer is the third cause of cancer death in western countries. age, inadequate diet, obesity, inactivity and genetic changes are some of the risk factors of colorectal cancer. correlation of genetic diversity in homologous recombination repair system with cancer was evaluated in many recent studies. this study was done to investigate the correlation of t241m polymorphism...

objective(s):although previous studies have confirmed the beneficial effects of human umbilical cord matrix stem cell (hucm) transplantation post myocardial infarction (mi), but this stem cell resource has no potential to induce angiogenesis. in order to achieve the process of angiogenesis and cardiomyocyte regeneration, two required factors for cardiac repair agents were examined namely; hucm ...

this study has examined the relationship between the xpd lys 751 gln polymorphism and colorectal cancer in 88 patients and their 88 age and sex-matched controls. genomic dna from peripheral whole blood was extracted using standard method to determine the genotype of subjects with rflp-pcr analysis. although this study shows cancer patients harbor more heterozygous genotype (xpd lys 751 gln) (or...

abstract hypoplastic right ventricular is a rare congenital heart disease. a few cases have been reported. we presented a case with hypoplastic right ventricular and multiple associated anomaly (ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect and pulmonary stenosis) in whom the main concern was whether biventricular repair or fontan type surgery would be the optimal management in this patient. ...
