background: this study aimed at estimating the proportion of diabetes as a risk factor to the attributable burden of cardiovascular diseases in iran. methods: comparative risk assessment methodology was used to calculating potential impact fraction (pif). to calculate pif, data on the prevalence of newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus (ndm) and known diabetes mellitus (kdm) were obtained from 3rd ...

background: knowledge of the magnitude of avoidable burden by risk factors is needed for health policy, priority setting, and preventing stroke. the aim of this study was to estimate the contribution of selected risk factors including hypertension, overweight, obesity, tobacco use, and physical inactivity to the attributable burden of stroke in iran. methods: the world health organization compa...

flavonoids are potentially immunomodulatory factors and it may be inferred that these phytochemicals contribute to immunomodulatory properties of the allium family. in the present study, we investigated the potential mechanism underlying the immunomodulatory effect of shallot and its ethyl acetate (ea) fraction as flavonoid-rich sources. ex vivo, effects of a hydroalcoholic extract of shallot, ...

Ophiocoma erinaceus Muller &Troschel (Ophiocomidae) is part of the extensive group of echinoderm that contains bioactive metabolites. As, the anti cancer potential of brittle star saponin has not been reported against cervical cancer, the present study was conducted to evaluate the anticancer effect of extracted crude saponin. Saponin extraction was conducted using conventional method such as f...

two different dual phase steels were prepared from low carbon manganese steel after the eliminationof the banding using the direct quenching (dq) and the step quenching (sq) procedures. different heattreatments resulted in different martensite morphologies, microstructures and mechanical properties. theheat treatments were designed in such a way to obtain a 0.25 volume fraction of martensite (v...
