background: stroke is a leading cause of death. current therapeutic strategies have been unsuccessful. several studies have reported benefits on reducing stroke risk and improving the poststroke associated functional declines in patients who ate foods rich in fruits and vegetables. their potential protective effects may be due to their antioxidants, calcium, potassium, riboflavine, peridoxin, r...

Stroke attacks occur suddenly and unpredictably, so the FAST method is very helpful in reducing number of pain death due to stroke. The advantage early detection that it can be done independently at various times, with best time morning. Education training form counseling workshops are given elderly Andalas Health Center, which aims provide knowledge about stroke train fast skills make Counseli...

background: stroke is the main cause of physical disability and the second leading cause of death worldwide. two-thirds of all strokes occur in the developing countries. despite being preventable, stroke is increasingly becoming a major health issue in these countries. the aim of this study was to evaluate the epidemiology of stroke in shiraz, iran, one of the main referral centers in the south...

background: the aim of this study is to determine the frequency of intracranial artery stenosis in patients with acute ischemic stroke in iran. methods: a total of 169 patients with acute ischemic stroke were eligible to participate and were enrolled in this study from january 2012 to february 2013. all the patients were admitted to the nemazee ‎hospital, affiliated to shiraz university of medi...

background: stroke is one of the leading causes of mortality and long-term morbidity. the aim of the present study was to determine the ability of baseline serum c-reactive protein (crp) and white blood cell count (wbc) values in predicting the outcome of acute ischemic stroke (ais). methods: this study consisted of patients with first ais referred to poursina hospital, rasht, iran. severity of...

stroke is one of the most leading causes of death and disability in the world. complement system activation contributes to pathogenesis and neuronal damage following stroke. there are no defined biological serum markers to determine the severity of stroke in acute phases. the purpose of current study was to determine the association of three complement activators, namely pentraxin-3 (ptx3),m-fi...

Background: Pathological conditions, including ischemic stroke, are associated with severe Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) stress that induces apoptosis and cell death. Herbal medicines are natural treatments with few side effects in such situations. Objectives: In the present study, we examined the probable neuroprotective effects of Viola spathulata, Lamium album, and Urtica dioica on splicing of...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE this paper examines the impact of demographic change from 2007 to 2021 on the total cost of stroke in Ireland and analyses potential impacts of expanded access to stroke unit care and thrombolytic therapy on stroke outcomes and costs. METHODS total costs of stroke are estimated for the projected number of stroke cases in 2021 in Ireland. Analysis also estimates the pote...

In this paper, the mechanism of improvement of formability in pulsating hydroforming of T-shape tubes is investigated by the finite element simulation and experiment. It is shown that local thinning was prevented by oscillating the internal pressure, because the protrusion is formed gradually by the prevention of sharp bulging. In the hydroforming, for the pulsating pressure, several steps occu...
