in this research, we have computationally investigated a mechanism for antiepileptic drugs (aed) and proposed bumetanide as a possible temporal lobe epilepsy (tle) treatment. experimentally it is difficult and devastating to determine the ionic mechanisms of depolarizing currents. it is obvious that chlorine and potassium transients are challenging to isolate pharmacologically and much γ-aminob...

The paper studies the influence of 0.5–1.8 wt.% Ni alloying on superplasticity, microstructural evolution, and dynamic grain growth effect in a temperature range 625–775 °C room mechanical properties two-phase Ti-Al-Mo-V alloys. Due to decrease β transus an enhancement alloy diffusivity, increase content significantly improved superplasticity. Ni-modified alloys exhibited 1.5–3-fold lower flow ...

objective: administration of amoxicillin and metronidazole along with scaling and root planning (srp) is an effective adjunctive therapy for chronic periodontitis. studies have shown that administration of azithromycin is also effective for treatment of chronic periodontitis. this study aimed to compare the effect of short-term and long-term azithromycin regimen with amoxicillin and metronidazo...
