Objective(s): Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion causes complex pathological mechanisms that lead to brain tissue damage. Usnic acid is a lichen secondary metabolite that has many different biological properties including anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant activities. Therefore, the objective of the current study was to investigate the neuroprotective effects of usnic acid ...

Objective: The present study investigated the effects of a local Thai vegetable, Tiliacora triandra (Colebr.) Diels, also known as Yanang, against cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury in mice. Materials and Methods: Thirty male ICR mice were divided into three experimental groups of BLCCAO + 10% Tween 80, BLCCAO + T. triandra 300 mg/kg, and BLCCAO + T. triandra 600 mg/kg. Cerebral ischemia/repe...

poverty can have spatial dimensions. while general figures might show the spatial pattern of poverty, there is a need for more detailed examination of this pattern. relying on simple figures of spatial patterns and ranking regions based on them might be misleading. this paper tries to apply spatial analysis methodsm, namely spatial autoregressive models to find out the impacts of space on the h...

the study of interactions of jet into cross flow at different longitudinal and transverse angles ofjet was studied. the following components were designed and constructed: a low velocity windtunnel to produce the uniform flow, a flat plate with a traverse injection system to simulate the jetinjection, and a spatial rake to measure the total pressure. the tests were carried out atlongitudinal (α...

soil and land information is vital for land use planning and infrastructure development. maps of soils landscapes are powerful tools to guide sustainable planning and natural resource management. fuzzy set theory has been widely used in soil science for soil classification and mapping, land evaluation, fuzzy soil geostatistics, soil quality indices. in fuzzy logic-based approaches, soil spatial...
