labor is a physiological event involving a sequential, integrated set of changes within the myometrium, deciduas, and uterine cervix that occur gradually over a period of days to weeks. biochemical connective tissue changes in the uterine cervix appear to precede uterine contractions and cervical dilation, and all of these events usually occur before rupture of the fetal membranes. in other wor...

conclusions the applied therapy adaptation before and after exercises was adequate to avoid hypoglycemia while using an ultra-long-acting insulin. objectives the aim of this experimental, cross-sectional study was to investigate exercise intensity-dependent, short-acting insulin reductions to avoid hypoglycemia, applying standardized exercises using insulin degludec (®tresiba/novo nordisk, denm...

Vitamin C (ascorbate) is an essential water-soluble micronutrient in humans and is obtained through the diet, primarily from fruits and vegetables. In vivo, vitamin C acts as a cofactor for numerous biosynthetic enzymes required for the synthesis of amino acid-derived macromolecules, neurotransmitters, and neuropeptide hormones, and is also a cofactor for various hydroxylases involved in the re...

Introduction: Radiation therapy planning (RTP) is one of the clinical applications in which both CT scan and MRI are used. MR and CT images are applied to determine the target volume and calculation of dose distribution, respectively. In addition, using two imaging modalities increases the department workload and cost. In this study, an algorithm was presented to create synthet...

The present study was aimed to impress the cytological, physiological, genetic, and morphological effects of essential oil obtained by hydro-distillation from Mentha longifolia (L.) HUDSON against maize seeds. These naturally occurred compounds can be used instead synthetic chemicals. To determine their biological activity, applied Zea mays L. seeds at different doses. It observed that germinat...

The response of synthetic substrates sex steroid hormones—cholesterol (CHO), pregnenolone (PREG), and progesterone (PROG)—in the serum testes male tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) to environmental estrogen pesticide methomyl (0.2, 2, 20, 200 μg·L−1) was evaluated using static-water contact toxicity tests. results showed that low concentrations (0.2 2 had no significant effects on contents CHO, P...

This study aimed at clarifying the impact of long-term prenatal and postnatal exposure to exogenous progesterone on sperm production function, relative sex organs weights, levels relevant hormones in rats. Sixty male Wistar rats were included classified into three groups (n=20 each). A test I group had mature born dams treated with prenatally. II exposed during as well periods, a control placeb...
