introduction: aggressive behavior is a major issue in the field of mental health. pharmacotherapy is often used for the treatment of violent individuals. a neurochemical system most consistently linked with aggression is the gabaergic system. the aim of the present investigation was to examine the effect of muscimol (gabaa agonist) 250 and 500 ng/rat and picrotoxin (gabaa antagonist) 1.5 and 3 ...

The present research was conducted on 170 rats dividing into two groups. One group received HHKV extract at a dose of 2 g/kg/day continuously for 14 days. The other group received TCTN1 extract at a dose of 3 g/kg/day for 30 days. After 14 and 30 days of experiment, a half of each group received an electrical shock and the remainder didn't receive such treatment Malonyl dialdehyd (MDA) of rat’s...

the aim of this research is to study the relations between personality types (introverted and extroverted), intelligence, sexuality and semantic conditioning. for this purpose, 94 subjects were selected through systematic random sampling from among the students of the first and second semesters of psychology at islamic azad university of roudhen. eysenck personality test and raven iq test were ...

The authors reviewed the mechanisms and pathophysiology of typically encountered electrical injuries by searching English-language publications listed in MEDLINE and reference lists from identified articles. They included relevant retrospective studies, case reports, and review articles published between 1966 and 2005. The authors also searched the Internet for information related to electrocut...

Electrical shock is typically an untoward exposure of human body to any source of electricity that causes a sufficient current to pass through the skin, muscles or hair causing undesirable effects ranging from simple burns to death. Ventricular fibrillation is believed to be the most common cause of death following electrical shock. The case under discussion is of a young man who survived follo...

Experiments were performed in anesthetized dogs to study some effects of propranolol, dextro-propranolol and ICI50,172 on digitalis-induced arrhythmias and digitalis-induced sensitization to electrical shock. When given in beta-blocking doses, propranolol did not abbreviate ouabain-induced ventricular tachycardia (VT) or decrease ouabain-induced sensitization to electrical shock. In larger dose...

In pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs, transcardiac shocks of up to 30 J or pacing stimuli were delivered to myocardial tissue at different times in the electrical cycle. When delivered midway or later into electrical systole, shocks, but not pacing stimuli, greatly extended the refractory period as determined by left ventricular pacing. There was a positive correlation between both the shock ener...

Introduction: Cardiomyocytes are more sensitive to stimulatory electrical fields when the latter are applied longitudinally to the cell major axis. In the whole heart, cells have different spatial orientations, which may limit the effectiveness of conventional electrical defibrillation (i.e., shock delivery in a single direction). This article describes the constructive aspects of a portable sy...
