Oxidative stress plays a key role in the pathophysiologic process of acute and chronic renal diseases. Intracellular component such as lipids, proteins and nucleic acids are easily and rapidly oxidized by excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), and such reactions lead to increased levels of lipid peroxide. The present study examined the antioxidant effects of Wen-Pi-Tang and its component crud...

natural hazards such as earthquakes have threatened the life of human beings during the history.as a consequence, the vibration mitigation of structures has caught great importance. activecontrol of structures is one of the rapidly emerging areas in the concept of structural control. thispaper presents a control method to deal with this subject when the dynamics of the structure ishysteretic an...

BACKGROUND Oxidative stress has been identified in the peritoneal fluid and peripheral blood of women with endometriosis. However, there is little information on the antioxidant intake for this group of women. The objectives of this work were 1) to compare the antioxidant intake among women with and without endometriosis and 2) to design and apply a high antioxidant diet to evaluate its capacit...
