OBJECTIVE In this study, we aimed at evaluation of the efficacy of Hypericum perforatum and flaxseed on hot flash, vaginal atrophy and estrogen-dependent cancers in menopausal women. MATERIALS AND METHODS We searched MEDLINE, Scopus, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (RCT) to explore trials that assessed the effectiveness of H. perforatum and flaxseed on hot flash, vagina...

Given the ecological and epidemiological specialization of Hyalesthes obsoletus, principle vector ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma solani’, primary objective this study was to develop molecular tools for discriminating three host plant associations populations: (i) Convolvulus arvensis–Urtica dioica (Ca–Ud), (ii) Vitex agnus-castus (Vac), (iii) Crepis foetida (Cf). The genetic diversity nearly full-leng...

introduction: there are several different molecular pathways in tissue damage by ischemic brain injury. the use of antioxidants and free radical scavengers are a matter of attention by some researchers. crocus sativus (saffron) is used previously for protective effects in ischemia state by some researchers. to assess pathologic aspects of neuroprotection of saffron in some susceptible brain are...
