Few previous investigations show that Carum Carvi (CC) may control pain in both animal and human. The aim of this work was to assess the role of CC on acute and chronic pain in formalin test in mice. In this study male albino mice (25-30 g) were used. CC (100 and 500 mg/kg) and saline were injected 30 min before formalin test. Indexes of signs were licking and foot elavation for assessment of a...

Autogenous bone grafts from the iliac crest have long been the gold standard for repair and reconstruction of bone; however harvesting of the grafts from the iliac crest is associated with donor site morbidity, particularly chronic pain. The bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are soluble bone matrix glycoproteins that induce the differentiation of osteoprogenitor cells into osteogenic cells and...

introduction one of the important applications of nuclear physics in medicine is the use of radioactive elements as radiopharmaceuticals. metastatic bone disease is the most common form of malignant bone tumors. samarium-153-ethylene diamine tetramethylene phosphonate (153sm-edtmp) as a radiopharmaceutical is used for pain palliation. this radiopharmaceutical usually emits beta particles, which...

Necrotizing fasciitis is a part of a spectrum of necrotizing soft tissue infections that usually follow a surgical intervention or a chronic / acute medical illness. Diagnosis is often based on symptoms which classically start within hours after an injury. There are no reports on the use of PET/CT in this condition. Sparing reports of its association in patients with malignancy (Ca of colon and...

During the 6-m period, 24 patients with acute scrotal pain were referred to the Nuclear Medicine Department of Shaheed Labbafi-Nejad hospital. Their age ranged from 9 to 84 (mean 28.8) years. Twelve scans were selected for the study. The scans were performed on angiographic and static phases, using Tc-pertechnetate. Of the above mentioned cases, one had acute testicular torsion (pre and p...

echocardiography is a non-invasive diagnostic technique which provides information regarding cardiac function and hemodynamics. it is the most frequently used cardiovascular diagnostic test after electrocardiography and chest x-ray. however, in a patient with acute chest pain, transthoracic echocardiography is essential both for diagnosing acute coronary syndrome, zeroing on the evaluation of v...

Bone marrow transplantation is the only cure for sickle cell disease but this curative therapy unfortunately lead to complication and several times death. indicated patients with severe who have complications including strokes, acute chest syndrome, recurrent pain crisis exchange transfusions, nephropathy retinopathy, osteonecrosis of multiple joints priapism. All are not eligible bone due asso...
