background : methamphetamine (ma) is an illegal amphetamine-like which stimulate the central nervous system. in recent years, ma has been widely abused worldwide. previous studies have suggested that oxidative stress (os) plays an important role in ma-induced toxicity. from this view, antioxidant therapy could be considered as a potential drug therapy in ma abusers. therefore, the objective of ...

Zoophycos is one of the most complex and enigmatic trace fossils recorded in marine strata from Cambrian to Quaternary worldwide, which is invaluable for the study of Phanerozoic development of organism-environment interactions. Here we address and demonstrate the macroevolution of Phanerozoic Zoophycos by assembling 448 points in constructing the Phanerozoic Zoophycos database based on 291 pap...

Fisher (1947) and Bailey (1961) considered a two-locus tetrasomic model and exploited the basic features of genetic segregation and linkage of tetrasomic inheritance. They attempted to establish the relationship between the model parameters (the coefficients of double reduction at two linked loci, say α and β respectively, and recombination frequency between them, r) and frequencies of gamete m...

Thanks to their outstanding advantages, nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) have recognized in various fields these days. One way to discover extra useful products against typical bacteria (e.g., Staphylococcus epidermidis) is NLCs loaded with essential oils. This paper aims to provide NLCs to encapsulate MA oil and characterize and survey the obtained MA...

conclusions ma is nowadays the most accurate stereotactic anatomic guide for targeting the human na. it is a representative example of how stereotactic microanatomy could serve the development of stereotactic microneurosurgery. following the currently used trajectory through the alic, a dbs electrode placement within the na, targeting the ma, is feasible, allowing either na or alic stimulation....

Moving averages are one of the most popular and easy-to-use tools available to a technical analyst, and they also form the building blocks for many other technical indicators and overlays. Building a moving average (MA) model needs determining four factors of (1) approach of issuing signals, (2) technique of calculating MA, (3) length of MA, and (4) band. After a literature re...

Background: Methamphetamine (MA) which is known as “shisheh” in Iran is a drug that widely is used in many parts of the world and it is near to a decade that is available for the most drug users and has a considerable prevalence of use. Due to high abuse prevalence and very new challenging phenomenon, it is very important that researchers and treatment providers become more familiar with differ...

Objectives:  Methamphetamine (MA) use disorder is a new health problem among Iranian female methadone patients that need special treatment and rehabilitation services. However, there are few studies describing their baseline characteristics, their reasons for MA use while in treatment and their treatment needs and success. The study aimed to investigate these research gaps. Methods: Participan...
