Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, and is a fasting month .Fasting is one of the islamic obligations. This annual ritual is regarded as one of the Five Pillars of Islam according to hadith of fifth Shia imam.In the other hand, Lipid profile is a type of blood tests and this's very important for body health, Specialy individuals with abnormal range of it. A complete lipid profil...

Background: The correlation between coronary artery disease and androgenic alopecia has been demonstrated, but the mechanism of this association still remains to be cleared. Objective: To investigate lipid profile, as an indicator of coronary artery disease, in women with female pattern alopecia. Methods: Fifty one women with female pattern alopecia and thirty one healthy women with normal hair...

We present a simple empirical function for the average density profile of cosmic voids, identified via the watershed technique in ΛCDM N-body simulations. This function is universal across void size and redshift, accurately describing a large radial range of scales around void centers with only two free parameters. In analogy to halo density profiles, these parameters describe the scale radius ...

We use high-resolution N-body simulations to study the equilibrium density profiles of dark matter halos in hierarchically clustering universes. We find that all such profiles have the same shape, independent of halo mass, of initial density fluctuation spectrum, and of the values of the cosmological parameters. Spherically averaged equilibrium profiles are well fit over two decades in radius b...

Background and objectives: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a chronic liver disease caused by the accumulation of large amounts of fat in the hepatocytes. Given that atorvastatin is effective for treatment of NAFLD, the present study investigated effects of high-fat/fructose diet (HFFD) with atorvastatin on liver enzymes and lipid profile in a NAFLD rat model. Methods: Thirty-two m...

First measurements of the current-density profile in the core of a high-temperature reversed-field pinch are presented. The current-density profile is observed to peak during the sawtooth cycle and broaden promptly at the crash. This change in profile can be linked to magnetic relaxation and the dynamo which is predicted to drive antiparallel current in the plasma core. For high-confinement dis...

BACKGROUND Malondialdehyde low-density lipoprotein (MDA-LDL) is a major form of oxidized LDL and considered to be more atherogenic than LDL. Information on major determinants of MDA-LDL and their association in subjects who are not under treatment for diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia is limited. METHODS This study included 778 Japanese subjects who were not taking medication for diabetes me...

Objective: Patients with metabolic syndrome are prone to cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Regarding the importance of nutritional factors in management of metabolic syndrome, this study was designed to evaluate the effects of dark chocolate consumption on serum lipid profile in patients with metabolic syndrome. Materials and Methods: In this randomized clinical trial, 114 patients with met...
