BACKGROUND: Comprehensive studies in blood values t have been somewhat reported in wildlife animals but this study is the first one in Iranian red sheep. OBJECTIVES: The present study was aimed to reveal alterations of some biochemical and hematological parameters in Iranian red sheep (Ovis. Orientalis gmelini) in the Zanjan province (Sorkhabad p...

Introduction: The long time use of opium has some effects on serums biochemical factors, the determination of this variation is a new approach in understanding off addiction and relive of drug abuser health. Hence in this study, these indicators in person who were withdrawing of opium have been studied. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study bloods biochemical factors such as fast...

Diclofenac sodium and diclofenac potassium in tablet dosage form were tested for their bioavailability and disposition kinetics in a group of 18 rabbits in normal and Escherichia coli induced febrile condition with a washout period of 7 days. Biochemical and physiological parameters were measured in both normal and febrile state. Diclofenac levels in plasma were determined using a reversed-phas...

conclusions in psychoactive substance dependents, serum routine biochemistry parameters can be used to predict the need for intensive monitoring and treatment programs. results there was a statistically significant difference in the gamma-glutamyl transferase (ggt), uric acid, creatinine, urea, albumin, aspartate aminotransferase (ast) medians between the dependent and control groups (p < 0.05)...

banana samples were purchased from a local market in sabzevar located at northeast of iran. then samples stored at refrigerator between 5–10oc during experiments, for prevention of chilling injury, 36 samples at three replications were prepared so as bananas were peeled and sliced with a sharp knife at three thicknesses (3, 5 and 10 mm) and then treated by three pretreatment methods (t1: chemic...

teucrium polium l. (tp) is widely used in traditional medicine of many countries including iran. there are various reports about pharmacological properties of tp such as calcium antagonist, anti- ulcer, anti – diabetic. there are a few reports about possible toxicological effects of this plant. in the present study we designed to evaluate the subchronic toxicity of teucrium polium total extract...

Background Reproductive dysfunction and endocrine disorders are common among men with complex partial seizures of temporal lobe origin. Diminished sexual desire and responsiveness along with decreased libido and less orgasm are frequently described in men with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). It appears that the reduced fertility in epileptic men is accompanied by erectile dysfunction and abnormal...

To evaluate the question of whether "mixed" bipolar disorder is a distinct entity, we compared selected cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biochemical parameters from patients with bipolar disorder, mixed, to those with mania and major depression. Fourteen patients in each category (DSM-III) were studied with regard to CSF HVA, 5HIAA, sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium levels under carefully cont...
