Electrical stimulation (ES) has long been used as an alternative clinical treatment and an effective approach to modulate cellular behaviours. In this work we investigated the effects of ES on human skin fibroblast activity, myofibroblast transdifferentiation and the consequence on wound healing. Normal human fibroblasts were seeded on heparin-bioactivated PPy/PLLA conductive membranes, culture...

Eleutheroside E (EE), a principal component of Eleutherococcus senticosus (ES), has anti-inflammatory and protective effects in ischemia heart. However, it is unknown whether it ameliorates insulin resistance and reduces hyperglycemia in diabetes. This study investigated the effect of EE-containing ES extracts, as well as EE, on hyperglycemia and insulin resistance in db/db mice. EE increased t...

an experiment was conducted to evaluate the extracted (es) and mechanical (ms) soybean meals two levels 25% and 35% in broiler chicken feeding. three hundred and fifty two one-day-old unsexed lohman chickens were placed in four treatments by 4 replicates and 22 chickens in each in a 2×2 factorial arrangement. feed intake was increased significantly in starter period by es in comparison with ms....

strongyloidiasis, caused by a nematode parasite so-called strongyloides stercoralis is one of the major human intestinal nematode infections. considering that stool examination for strongyloides larvae is not a sensitive method and immunodiagnostic methods are more applicable for this purpose, so the present study was conducted to compare the somatic (s) and excretory - secretory (es) antigens ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The self-reported foot and ankle score (SEFAS) is a questionnaire designed to evaluate disorders of the foot and ankle, but it is only validated for arthritis in the ankle. We validated SEFAS in patients with forefoot, midfoot, hindfoot, and ankle disorders. PATIENTS AND METHODS 118 patients with forefoot disorders and 106 patients with hindfoot or ankle disorders compl...

Purpose: The present study aimed to investigate the effect of voluntary and electrically stimulated quadriceps muscle fatigue on postural control. Methods: Sixteen healthy young males participated in this quasi-experimental study. All subjects performed two fatiguing exercises with equal intensity of isometric maximal voluntary contraction: Voluntary (VOL) and Electrical Stimulation (ES). The ...
