Groundwater, a special hydrological variable and freshwater resource is completely inter-reliant with hydro-metorological, topographic, land use and hydro-geological components of hydrologic cycle. Trend of hydrologic componentsfor future prediction is attempted to confer in this study using Man-Kendall test, linear regression and geometric progression analysis on recorded data collected from r...

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of pravastatin on Adriamycin (ADR)-induced nephropathy and the mechanisms involved. Forty rats were divided into the following 4 groups: control, ADR (15 mg.kg-1, IP), ADR plus pravastatin (20 mg.kg-1 which was started 5 days prior to ADR injection), and ADR plus pravastatin (20 mg.kg-1 which was started 5 days after ADR injection). On day 20 aft...

Groundwater is an essential water resource in the current era, and studying its sustainability management highly necessary nowadays. In area of research interest, reduced mean annual Sutlej River flow, increase population/built-up areas, enhanced groundwater abstractions have recharge. To address this issue, recharge modeling through ponding was carried out using a modular three-dimensional fin...

Localized studies of arsenic (As) in Bangladesh have reached disparate conclusions regarding the impact of irrigation-induced recharge on As concentrations in shallow (≤50 m below ground level) groundwater. We construct generalized regression models (GRMs) to describe observed spatial variations in As concentrations in shallow groundwater both (i) nationally, and (ii) regionally within Holocene...

introduction: the aim of the study was to investigate the effects of curcuma longa (c. longa) extract on adriamycin-induced hepatotoxicity in rat. methods: animals were divided in six groups: control (co), adriamycin (adr), adriamycin with vitamin c (adr+vitc), vitamin c (vit c), c. longa with adriamycin (cl+adr) and without adriamycin (cl-adr). hepatotoxicity was induced by adriamycin 5mg/kg a...

Jordan is considered one of the countries in the world with the scarcest of water resources. This has led to deterioration of the groundwater quality and an increase in the salinity levels. The dominant environmental challenge expanding population. Rainfall is confined largely to the winter season and ranges from around 660 mm in the north-west of the country to less than 130 mm in the extreme ...

A systematic measurement of ions and 2H/1H, 7Li/6Li, 11B/10B, 18O/ 16O, and 87Sr/86Sr isotopes in feed-waters, permeates, and brines from commercial reverse osmosis (RO) desalination plants in Israel (Ashkelon, Eilat, and Nitzana) and Cyprus (Larnaca) reveals distinctive geochemical and isotopic fingerprints of fresh water generated from desalination of seawater (SWRO) and brackish water (BWRO)...

An assessment is made on the current groundwater use and further development potential in the hard to reach (HtR) areas of Bangladesh following a combination of secondary literature review and synthesis of primary information gathered from the fields. Also, primary analyses of groundwater quality, levels, recharge and use were done using secondary data. The findings reveal that the hydrogeology...

background: the incidence of colorectal cancer is rising in several developing countries. in the absence of integrated endoscopy and pathology databases, adenoma detection rate (adr), as a validated quality indicator of screening colonoscopy, is generally difficult to obtain in practice. we aimed to measure the correlation of polyp-related indicators with adr in order to identify the most accur...
