introduction: arterial gas derangement could change urinary sodium excretion in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd) patients.there are very few and conflicting data in regards to the measurement of fractional excretion of sodium in copd patients. the main aim of this study was to assess the relationship between renal fractional excretion of sodium(fena) with arterial blood gas and spir...

to study the effect of herb ginger powder on performance, carcass characteristics and blood parameters of broilers used from 192 broiler chicks (ross ) in a completely randomized design with 4 treatments and 4 replicates ( each replicate of 12 chicks ). all treatments, including different levels of ginger powder ratios of 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5 percent respectively called t1, 2t, t3 and t4 that were ad...

Extrapolation from post-exercise measurements has been used to estimate respiratory and blood gas parameters during exercise. This may not be accurate in exercise with reduced breathing frequency (RBF), since spontaneous breathing usually follows exercise. This study was performed to ascertain whether measurement of oxygen saturation and blood gases immediately after exercise accurately reflect...

background  : on-pump coronary artery bypass graft (cabg) surgery impairs gas exchange in the early postoperative period. the main object on this study was evaluation of changes in arterial blood gas values in patients underwent on pump cabg surgery receiving different dose of intravenous nitroglycerin (ntg). methods : sixty-seven consecutive patients undergoing elective on-pump cabg randomly e...

mankind efforts for achieving a better life while brings welfare for him, unfortunately brings environmental and harmful effects on health. these harm specially the ones due to increase in automobiles and fossil fuels, endanger the possibility of the continuation of life for present and future tenerations. lead is mentioned as one of the outputs of these fuels. available studies indicate that t...

this study was conducted to compare the bio-efficacy of herbal methionine (h-met) relative to dl-methionine (dl-met) on 160 “ross 308” broiler chickens. dl-met and h-met were added to the basal diet in eight experimental treatments with three and four concentrations respectively in starter, grower and finisher period. blood parameters which were measured at 24 and 42 days of age consisted of: s...

the present study has been conducted on caspian roach (rutilus rutilus) so that the impact of different concentrations lead on blood hematological, biochemical, and immunological indicators could be investigated. the roach (rutilus rutilus), used in this study, was 3.3±0.3 g heavy and 4±0.80 cm long in average. the fish were exposed to a low concentration of 10% lc50 and high concentration of 5...

this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different proportions of lemon bee brush essential oil on growth performance, carcass composition, and hematology and biochemical parameters of common carp (cyprinus carpio). common carp with an average weight of 8 ± 0.2 g were fed for one month with a diet supplemented with lemon beebrush essential oil (0.15 and 0.3 ml) and with normal diet a...

background: the knowledge of blood parameters is important for assessing the physiological status and health of animals. objectives: this study was conducted to determine the effect of heavy pregnancy on some serum indices of dromedary camels. methods: twenty clinically healthy female dromedary camels aged between 4-5 years were divided into two equal groups: i: pregnant camels in their last tr...
