background: premenstrual syndrome (pms) is one of the most common disorders in women in reproductive age. the study aimed to assess the effect of carbohydrate-rich supplements and diets on premenstrual syndrome. methods: the study was conducted within two stages. first stage was descriptive cross sectional investigation to find out frequency and subjects diagnosed as pms according to the apa cr...

this study was carried out to determine the protein and carbohydrate molecular structure of sorghum cultivars using fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ftir) with multivariate molecular spectroscopy analyses. sorghum cultivars included: 1- kimia, 2- sepideh, 3- m2 and 4- m8. protein and carbohydrate molecular functional groups studied included: peak area and height amide i, amide ii, α-hel...

data regarding the effects of dietary protein on modifying serum lipid and lipoprotein levels are controversial. in this study we have investigated the hypothesis whether dietary protein and protein to carbohydrate ratio could be related to subsequent changes in lipid profile in adults.this 3-yaers follow-up_longitudinal study was conducted on a sample of participants (845 men and 1043 women, a...

background: stroke is a leading cause of preventable morbidity and mortality in the united states. numerous studies have shown that dietary carbohydrates play an important role in stroke incident. therefore, this study aimed to assess the association between dietary intake of carbohydrate and its types and stroke incidence among iranian adults. methods: a case‑control study was performed among ...

about a decade ago, carbohydrate mouth rinsing was shown to enhance endurance exercise performance. this improvement was more pronounced in a fasted compared to a fed state, suggesting that the ergogenic effect of carbohydrate mouth rinse is dependent on endogenous carbohydrate storage. hence, indirectly highlights the potential use of carbohydrate mouth rinse as a potential strategy to mitigat...

background: cercariae (larva of helminth parasites) are covered by a thick glycocalyx coat, which serves as an osmotic pro­tection during their free existence, and contain carbohydrates conjugated as glycoproteins, glycolipids and mu­co­polysaccharides. although, limited studies have been made on life cycle of cercariae from fresh water snails, however, car­bo­hydrate studies on cercariae have ...

background: fascioliasis is a chronic hepatic disease and may be resulted from mechani­cal/molecular parasite adhesion to host liver tissue. the aim of this study was to detect surface car­bohydrate and lectin, carbohydrate-binding protein isolation that might be responsible of this molecular binding. methods: the present experimental work was conducted in the department of medical parasitol­og...

background ghrelin, a 28 amino acid peptide, is effective in control of appetite and body weight. acylated ghrelin peptide is the active form of this peptide which plays a major role in the body’s energy balance. objectives this study aimed to investigate the possible effect (s) of intensive resistance exercise on acylated ghrelin, growth hormone, glucose, insulin, and cortisol plasma levels. p...
