background: evaluation of herbicide pollution in aquatic environments needs the great concern and the most important echo-pollutant effects of herbicides are related to their effects on non target aquatic organisms. native fish can serve as a proper bio-indicator for evaluation  of pollution on aquatic ecosystems. objectives: to find environmentally friendly herbicides, in this study the acute ...

     Osteoporosis is a silent epidemy of today's world, and is also a prevalent problem of health in Iran. The role of nutrients such as ascorbic acid, a key antioxidant vitamin, in this disease has recently attracted researchers' attention. In this study, we studied the relation between plasma ascorbic acid concentration and bone mineral density (BMD) in women referring to Jami clinic, Tehran,...

acute hemorrhagic leukoencephalitis (ahle) is a rare demyelinating disease characterized by an acute rapidly progressive fulminant inflammation of the white matter. in this case report, we introduce a case of ahle in children with an interesting and lengthy process and successful treatment. a previously healthy 13-year-old girl was admitted to the hospital because of fever and loss of conscious...

Acute interstitial nephritis is among the causes of abdominal pain. We aimed to demonstrate acute nephritis, which can occur after intentional drug use as a suicide attempt and be confused with abdomen. A 15-year-old girl described She was referred nephrology department because her serum creatinine value 3.4 mg/dL. Although patient asked about any use, she stated that had not taken medication. ...

Strategic in pathophysiological homeostasis (following injury), as well as cellular, tissue and organismic protection are acute and chronic inflammatory responses [1,2]. Consequently, the pathogenesis and progression of cardiovascular and other diseases is initiated and perpetuated by this phenomenon. Efforts to normalize or control inflammatory processes include pharmacological, dietary and be...

Acute kidney injury causes great morbidity and mortality in both the community and hospital settings. Understanding the etiological factors and the pathophysiological principles resulting in acute kidney injury is essential in prompting appropriate therapies. Recently hyperuricemia has been recognized as a potentially modifiable risk factor for acute kidney injury, including that associated wit...

Glucocorticoid therapy is often associated with impaired insulin sensitivity and cardiovascular disease. The present study was designed to evaluate cardiac fatty acid (FA) composition and metabolism following acute dexamethasone (Dex) treatment. Using the euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp, rats injected with Dex demonstrated a reduced glucose infusion rate. This whole body insulin resistance wa...

Uric acid has ever been considered as one of contrast induced acute kidney injury's risk factors. Atorvastatin and probucol can both improve contrast induced acute kidney injury separately. This prospective study is to assess their effect on reducing serum uric acid level and contrast induced acute kidney injury during perioperative period of interventional procedure. On the basis of different ...

The use of doxorubicin (DOX) is limited by significant cardiotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and hepatotoxicity. We have previously shown that DOX cardiotoxicity induces several cardiac cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes with subsequent alteration in P450-mediated arachidonic acid metabolism. Therefore, in the current study, we investigated the effect of acute DOX toxicity on P450 expression and arachido...
