[ 1 ] - Caffeine Treatment Prevented from Weight Regain after Calorie Shifting Diet Induced Weight Loss

Low calorie diets are always difficult for obese subjects to follow and lead to metabolic and behavioral adaptation. Therefore, we evaluated the effect of caffeine treatment with calorie shifting diet (CSD) on weight loss. Female subjects (n=98; BMI≥25) completed 4-weeks control diet, 6-weeks CSD (3 repeated phases; each 2-weeks) and 4-weeks follow-up diet, with or without caffeine treatment (5...

[ 2 ] - BCL-2 and Bax Expression in Skin Flaps Treated with Finasteride or Azelaic Acid

Despite all modern surgical techniques, skin flap that is considered as the main method in most reconstructive surgeries puts the skin tissue at danger of necrosis and apoptosis derived from ischemia. Therefore, finding a treatment for decreasing the apoptosis derived from flap ischemia will be useful in clinic. In present study, we evaluated the effect of azelaic acid 20% and finasteride on ex...

[ 5 ] - Investigating the Protective Effects of Vitamin D on Diabete

Vitamin D directly (due to receptor activation by vitamin D) or indirectly (through regulation of calcium homeostasis) effects on the pathogenic mechanisms associated with both types of diabetes, such as pancreatic beta-cell dysfunction, impaired insulin action and systemic inflammation. It has been shown that using Vitamin D supplementation during pregnancy and infancy has relation with a redu...
