asthma is one of the fastest growing syndromes in many countries and is adding a huge cost to the health care system. increasing reports have linked airway infectious diseases to asthma. influenza is one of the most serious airway infectious diseases and in recent years there have been some serious influenza virus pandemics which caused increased fatality in numerous different populations. dive...

background: bladder cancer (bc) is the most common genitourinary cancer in iranians with an unclear etiopathogenesis. long stress induced non-coding transcript 5 is a member of the 12-member family of long non-coding rnas, which is abundantly expressed in higher proliferative cells, as well as the cell vulnerable to cellular stress in response to chemical carcinogens. as variations in long non-...

common vetch ( vicia sativa l.) an annual forage, belonging to the fabaceae family is one of the highly cultivated forage legumes in iran. drought stress is a serious adverse factor that limits plant growth and productivity, inducing a range of physiological as well as biochemical responses in plants. it may also lead to generation of oxygen activated species which in turn result in cell destru...

background: bladder cancer (bc) is the most commonly diagnosed genitourinary cancer in iran, presented in both men and women. bc is a multifactorial trait resulting from the complex interaction between several genes and environmental factors. long stress-induced non-coding transcript 5 (lsinct5), a member of the long non-coding rnas, is abundantly expressed in high proliferative cells, as well ...

objective(s): intracerebroventricular injection of orexin-a (hypocretin-1) antagonist has been shown to inhibit stress-induced analgesia. however the locations of central sites that may mediate these effects have not been totally demonstrated. this study was performed to investigate the role of rostral ventromedial medulla (rvm) orexin receptor 1 in stress-induced analgesia (sia). materials and...

recognition of relationship between the present day stress state and fractures is very important in fractured reservoirs. fractures that are parallel or oblique to maximum horizontal stress have more tendencies to tensile deformation and tensile deformed fractures will be more permeable. the dalan formation is one of the main gas reservoirs of iran witch most of the production from this formati...

purpose: to evaluate the effect of vertical prism induced stress on binocular visual evoked potentials. methods: using checkerboard stimulus patterns in two spatial frequencies (sfs) of 0.48 cpd as a low sf and 2.18 cpd as a moderate sf reversing with temporal frequency of 4 hz, the effect of increasing visual stress using vertical prisms of 0, 1, 2 and 3 prism diopters on binocular visual evok...

objective(s): there are many reports about the role of rostral ventromedial medulla (rvm) in modulating stress-induced analgesia (sia). in the previous study we demonstrated that temporal inactivation of rvm by lidocaine potentiated stress-induced analgesia. in this study, we investigated the effect of permanent lesion of the rvm on sia by using formalin test as a model of acute inflammatory pa...
