background and objectives: gingival and periodontal diseases are associated with specific bacterial infections. the main aim of the study was to know whether the periodontitis is associated with an increased risk for acute myocardial infarction (ami) and to know the distribution of porphyromonas gingivalis in patients with acute myocardial infarction associated with chronic periodontitis and ac...

background and objective: histological grading has prognostic and therapeutic implications in meningioma. however, histological criteria are sometimes not fulfilled to predict the biological behavior of meningiomas. p63 gene is a novel p53 family member, known as tumor suppressor factor, with multiple isoforms and shows high expression in many normal and neoplastic human tissues. in this study,...

abstract background: different adjuvant drugs have been used with local anesthetics in order to decrease the time of onset and elongate the duration and quality of regional blocks. this study was performed to study the effects of one of the adjuvants, verapamil, in supraclavicular block. methods: in this double blinded clinical trial, we divided 60 asa class i and ii patients who were to underg...

Background: Parthenogenetic activation is a possible way to produce homogeneous embryos with the some ploidy. Probably such embryos could be used in other areas of biotechnology. Calcium signals are known as important regulators of oocyte activation. Extracellular calcium is required for initiation of meiotic resumption and development. Calcium ionophore A23187 is known to elevate intracellular...
