in this study, the amount of total phenol, chlorogenic acid, catechin, quercetin, phloridzin, cyanidin and antioxidant activity of apple (malus domestica) skin and flesh of six iranian cultivars, including: ‘golab kohanz’, ‘sib torsh dirras’, ‘ghara yapragh’, ‘torkman’, ‘ghezel alma’ and ‘abbasi mashhad’, and four commercial cultivars including: ‘golden delicious’, ‘red delicious’, ‘braeburn’ a...

This study examined the effect of (E)-2-methyl-6-(2-phenylethynyl)-pyridine (SIB-1893), a selective non-competitive metabotropic glutamate subtype 5 receptor (mGluR5) antagonist, on body temperature in freely moving Wistar rats. Temperature was monitored using programmed microchips, implanted subcutaneously in rats, at several times: 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120 and 180 min after intraperi...

Background/aim This comparative plan study examines a range of boost-radiation methods in adjuvant radiotherapy breast cancer using helical intensity-modulated with TomoEdge-technique. Impact hypofractionated radiation simultaneous-integrated boost (SIB) and influence differing assumed ?/?-values were examined. Patients For 10 patients left-sided each four IMRT-plans TomoEdge-technique created:...

The aim of this study was to compare three strategies for intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for 20 head-and-neck cancer patients. For simultaneous integrated boost (SIB), doses were 66 and 54 Gy in 30 fractions for PTVboost and PTVelective, respectively. Two-phase IMRT delivered 50 Gy in 25 fractions to PTVelective in the First Plan, and 20 Gy in 10 fractions to PTVboost in the Second Pla...

Platelet-specific antigen Sib(a) has been highly implicated in the pathogenesis of refractoriness to human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched platelet transfusions in Japan. We provide evidence that the Sib(a) antigen is located on the glycoprotein (GP) Ib alpha and has a close association with the molecular weight (mol wt) polymorphism of GPIb. In modified antigen-capture ELISA (MACE), anti-Sib(a...

OBJECTIVE Several studies have shown reduced pain perception in patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD) and current self-injurious behavior (SIB). The aim of the present study was to test whether pain perception in patients with current SIB is different from that of patients who had stopped SIB, and whether pain perception of the latter group differs from healthy controls (HC). ME...

Dopaminergic neuronal circuits underlying self-injurious behavior (SIB) were investigated in neonatal 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced dopamine-depleted rats. The extent of damaged dopamine neuronal areas was investigated by quantitative analysis of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) immunocytochemistry and the biochemical quantification of dopamine levels in three groups; neonatal 6-OHDA-treated rats...

Self-injurious behavior (SIB) has been observed in people with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), although the frequency of SIB in TSC is largely unknown. SIB is associated with intellectual and developmental disabilities, but there is no single cause of SIB. We retrospectively examined the frequency of SIB in a population of 257 patients with TSC and determined possible associations with SIB. W...
