presence of maternal diabetes mellitus (dm) during pregnancy has important consequences for both mother and child. to determine maternal and fetal/neonatal complications of gestational dm and compare them with pre-gestational dm, a prospective study was performed in 100 diabetic women delivered in our hospital from january 2001 to april 2002. pregnancy outcome in 27 women with gestational dm an...

It is known that cardiovascular complications plays important roles in the development of diabetes mellitus (DM) and platelet dysfunction is one of the key reasons which led to microangiopathy. This study was designed to investigate the mitochondria function changes of platelet in DM rats and DM patients. The results showed that the platelets viability, platelet adenosine triphosphate (ATP) con...

Background: A number of former studies have shown that tuberculosis (TB) is higher in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients than non-diabetics. Both DM and TB are major public health problems in Iran, and because of the lack of investigation in this field in the region, we conducted this study to evaluate the prevalence of DM in admitted pulmonary tuberculosis patients. Methods: The medical files of...

We report the detection of CN, HCN, HNC, CS, HCO+, C2H and H2CO (ortho and para) in the protoplanetary disks of DM Tau and GG Tau. For the first time organic molecules are observed in objects representative of the presolar nebula. These molecules are underabundant with respect to the standard dense clouds. The depletions in the “outer” disk of DM Tau (100 < r < 900 AU), derived from the line in...

Background: Deltamethrin (DM) is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide that can elicit neurotoxicity, leading to apoptosis. There is accumulating evidence that oleuropein (OE) has anti-apoptotic effect. The purpose of this study was to determine the anti-apoptotic effect of OE pretreatment in the neuronal cells of cerebral cortex. Methods: Rats were randomly divided into four groups each containin...

Introduction The major sources of body heat production are muscle activity, chemical reactions involving ATP synthesis and usage, coupled (oxidative phosphorylation) and uncoupled (proton leak) mitochondrial respiration. The cause of fever associated with sepsis has not been elucidated, particularly in sedated, ventilated patients who neither perform much voluntary skeletal muscle activity nor ...
