background : diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease with a worldwide prevalence and its complications can be prevented with close monitoring of blood glucose. quality of blood glucose monitoring utilizing glucometers in iranian hospitalized patients has not been well published in the literature. we evaluated the accuracy and consistency of the results of two devices compared with the standard l...

evaluation of the blood and milk biochemical parameters always is considered as effective key factor for animal health and dairy products. in order to assess the association of kappa-casein (k-cn) genetic variants with blood biochemical indicators, blood samples were randomly and individually collected from 126 iranian guilan native cattle. blood plasma was used to measure blood glucose, urea, ...

background and objective: the reliability and validity of monitors for self-monitoring of blood glucose are debated. we evaluated the analytical performance of accu-check active (boehringer mannheim, roche) which is one of the most commonly used monitors in iran. material and methods: we compared the monitor readings with the reference values by percentage of values within certain intervals of...

In four cross sectional school screens, the Muscatine Study has sampled 8,909 school children; 820 have been studied repeatedly over a six-year period. Tracking of measurements described by the relationship between repeated observations and the relationship between peer rank orderings over the six-year period has been studied. For height and weight, correlations between observations six years a...

diabetes mellitus is a common endocrine disorder. anti-diabetic agents from natural and synthetic sources are available for the treatment of this disease. berberis integerrima is a medicinal shrub used in conventional therapy for a number of diseases. the aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of aqueous extract of berberis integerrima root (aebi) on some physiological paramete...
