Introduction: In the present study, potential differences between the effects of L-carnitine (LC) and acetyl-Lcarnitine (ALC) on ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced myocardial infarction size were investigated. Methods: Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups and then anesthetized by sodium pentobarbital. Hearts of the animals were removed and quickly mounted on a Langendorff ...

Background: Moringa has a hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic influence, the water extract of its leaves can decrease amount glucose during Diabetes Mellitus. in or powder form influenced type I II diabetes by enhancing insulin secretion improving glycogen synthesis uptake liver muscles. This occurred case diabetes, as well inhibiting slowing gastric emptying diabetes.Objective: In our study, we try...

A spectrum of mitral valve disease was noted in 71 per cent of 163 specimens with transposition of the great arteries. At one end of the spectrum were hearts with normal mitral valve, except that the free margin of the anterior leaflet was shortened; at the other end were specimens with underdevelopment of the space between or behind the papillary muscles of the left ventricle. In additional ...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the gross arrangement of the principal muscular bundles of the two atria, and to suggest how it may contribute to contraction and spread of atrial excitation. DESIGN A prospective analysis based on anatomical examination of adult human hearts. SETTING A national heart and lung institute and a tertiary referral centre for cardiac disease. MATERIAL 9 normal postmort...

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the use of cross-correlation analysis between simulated surface electromyograms (EMGs) of two muscles to quantify motor unit synchronization. The volume conductor simulated a cylindrical limb with two muscles and bone, fat, and skin tissues. Models of two motor neuron pools were used to simulate 120 s of surface EMG that were detected over both muscles. ...

We have studied the disposition of the cardiac conducting tissues in four hearts from situs solitus individuals possessing primitive ventricles without outlet chambers. These hearts correspond to the type of univentricular heart defined as common ventricle by Lev. All the hearts studied possessed normally positioned great arteries. Two groups, each consisting of two hearts, could be distinguish...

350 The excessive differential wear of teeth and restorative materials has significant deleterious effects on the biologic, functional, and esthetic condition of the masticatory system. However, controlled investigations of numerous factors that might influence tooth and restoration wear have been mainly laboratory studies, the findings of which might not correlate with either the physical prop...

We evaluated the effects of three levels of energy intake, 73 % (CON73), 81 % (CON81) and 100 % (CON100) of the ad libitum intake of the control diet, on skeletal muscle growth induced by functional overload in male rats. Unlike most previous studies which have employed chronic or acute food restriction where all nutrients are reduced in the diet, the present study tested the effects of energy ...
