Background   Lipoprotein lipase activity can be increased by clofibrate. Clofibrate is used to reduce serum triglyceride level in adults. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of clofibrate on serum triglyceride and cholesterol level after administration of intravenous lipid in very low birth weight neonates. Method In a randomized double blind placebo – controlled study, 60 very lo...

AIMS To evaluate umbilical cord serum therapy as a means of promoting the healing of persistent corneal epithelial defects. METHODS Umbilical cord serum or autologous serum drops were used to promote the healing of persistent epithelial defects. The study design was a prospective randomised controlled clinical trial. 60 eyes of 59 patients were divided into two groups, 31 in the cord serum gr...

Dyslipidemia is common after spinal cord injury-independent of clinical measures. Access to the published version may require subscription. Abstract Objective: To survey the incidence of clinical risk markers and its correlation with established clinical measurements for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in a heterogeneous spinal cord injured (SCI) patient population. Subjects: 78 patients with SCI,...

Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) secondary to sulfur mustard gas poisoning, known as mustard lung, is a major late pulmonary complications in chemical warfare patients. Serious comorbidities like dyslipidemia are frequently encountered in COPD. The aim of this study was to measure the serum lipid profile and evaluate the relation of lipid parameters with the severity o...

This study characterized the differentiation of neural stem/precursor cells (NSPCs) isolated from different levels of the spinal cord (cervical vs lumbar cord) and different regions along the neuraxis (brain vs cervical spinal cord) of adult male Wistar enhanced green fluorescent protein rats. The differentiation of cervical spinal cord NSPCs was further examined after variation of time in cult...

With no routine accessible medicine intervention for spinal cord damage, there is a demand for more remedial candidates. However, for Imatinib to have translational price, it requires to have encouraged obliging effects with delayed start of treatment, as well. Serum levels of 3 chemokines/ cytokines, MIP-3α, MCP-1, and GRO/ KC (IL-8), to raise over time with Imatinib treatment and to be ...

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is adisorder of hyperandrogenemia and chronic anovulation which affects 5-10% of all women. It has been reported that women with PCOS often have serum lipid level elevation. This study compares serum lipid levels in women with and without polycystic ovary syndrome. Materials and Methods: In this comparative-cross sectional study, lipid profiles (Tota...
