objective: this study was conducted with the aim to investigate and compare iranian produced and foreign oxytocin for use in induction of labor. materials and methods: this random clinical trial was conducted on a population of 198 pregnant women with live fetus and cephalic presentation and conditions conducive to induction of labor, monitored by obstetricians and gynecologists. they were rand...

considering great medicinal value of hyssopus officinalis l. and possibility of its mass production through in vitro culture, two individual experiments was conducted. effect of various concentrations (0, 2.2, 4.4 and 11 µmol) of tdz and bap in combination with 1 µmol of iaa on direct regeneration from nodal explants were assessed. significant difference between treatments was observed (p≤ 0.01...

pretreatment of adults of iraq strain of afhstephenst with a sub-letlial dose of pcrmethrin resulted in a 65% enliancemenl of tolerance to this insecticide. similarly, pre-exposure of dub-lpr larvae to a sub-lethal dose of pcrmethrin resulted in increased tolerance to pcrmethrin. for the sensitive ind-s strain, the inductive effect was smaller. tiie results of bioassays of resistant and suscept...

role of labor induction has increased in the last decade due to the ‎early detection of fetal jeopardy. although very useful, oxytocin alone is not always successful for induction of ‎labor. in a randomized clinical ‎trial we compared vaginal dinoprostone plus oxytocin with oxytocin alone for ‎induction of labor in 91 ‎pregnant women at 40 weeks or greater gestation with bishop scores ≤ 4. fort...

blocking antibodies are valuable tools for inhibiting the specific receptor- ligand interactions. the interaction of co-stimulatory molecules on the antigen presenting cells with their ligands on t cells is an essential step for t cell activation. in the present study, the effect of blocking antibody against cd40 on its t cell stimulatory potential is investigated. the dcs (dendritic cells) wer...

background and objectives: auto-induction is usually employed to achieve high cell density and overproduction of proteins with a simple and low-cost operation. the efficiency of heterologous protein expression in escherichia coli is determined by different parameters. interactions between these parameters usually complicate the identification of those that contribute more to the improvement of ...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa microsoftinternetexplorer4 background: the efficacy of mitoxantrone induction therapy in rapidly worsening multiple sclerosis (ms) is well established. plasma exchange is also applied as an adjuvant in exacerbations of relapsing ms. the aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of combination therapy with mitoxantrone and plasma exchange versus ...

in order to evaluate the different photoperiod and temperature sensitive pre-flowering phases in two cumin landraces a raciprocal transfer experiment from photoperiod 8 h to 16 h and vice versa under two different day/ night temperatures 20/10 and 30/20 ˚c was conducted. two model including ellis and adams were used to analyse the data and to quantify the duration of different developmental pha...

single-phase squirrel cage and three-phase induction electromotors are the most popular electromotors used in industry from long ago. when an induction motor starts with direct connection method, it takes a lot of current from the power supply (several times the nominal current); so, several methods have been devised to start such electromotors. these methods either reduce the voltage of the st...

case presentation the studied patient was a 32-year-old g1p1 woman with abdominal pain who was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst during ovulation induction, which could possibly raise the risk of ovarian torsion. she had a 2-year secondary infertility and had received three cycles of ovulation induction with letrozole 6 months earlier. an emergency laparoscopy showed large complex ovarian cys...
