the recent literatures indicate that central nervous system (cns) is highly vulnerable to systemic hyperthermia induced by whole body heating on conscious animals. in the present study, cerebral electrical activity or eeg (electroencephalogram) following exposure to high environmental heat has been studied in moving rats. rats were divided into three group (i) acute heat stress-subjected to a s...

Background: Glyphosate containing herbicides are widely used the world over. They are marketed as nontoxic to humans, but numerous studies have showed that these glyphosate-based herbicides (GlySH) can cause multiorgan damage.1 Recent reports of animal studies on rats have raised a doubt of liver damage after long term exposure to GlySH. Case Presentation: a young male had chronic exposure to G...

This paper presents the effect of high environmental heat on behavior of the male Charles Foster rats. Eighty rats were divided into three groups, subjected to (i) acute heat stress (ii) chronic heat stress and (iii) handling control group. Animals were exposed to the hot environment in a biological oxygen demand incubator at 38 ± 1ºC (relative humidity 45-50%) for four hours of continuous sing...

Background: Fish have been at high risk of atrazine toxicity. Comparative atrazine toxicity on the tissues of Clarias gariepinus is scanty. Therefore, acute and chronic effects of atrazine on some biochemical parameters in Clarias gariepinus were investigated in this study. Methods: Atrazine toxicity was determined by assessing the responses of glucose, protein, alanine aminotransferase (ALT...

background: sulfur mustard (sm) has been considered as a carcinogen in the laboratory studies. however, its carcinogenic effects on human beings were not well discussed. the main purpose of our study is to assess carcinogenesis of sm following acute and/or chronic exposures in human beings. methods: the valid scientific english and persian databases including pubmed, web of science, scopus, ira...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: acute kidney injury (aki) is commonly occurred in intensive care unit (icu) patients. the aim of the study was a comparison of rifle (risk of renal injury/injury to the kidney/failure of kidney function/loss of kidney function/end stage disease) classification with other scoring systems in the evaluation of aki in icus. materials and met...

background: epidemiological studies have illustrated that exposure to atmospheric nitrogen oxides (no2/nox) is responsible for an increased risk of acute or chronic diseases such as cancer. in this study the health risks associated with nitrogen dioxide (no2) were assessed in the city of kermanshah, the capital of kermanshah province, iran. methods: data on hourly no2 levels that had been measu...
