conclusions the results suggest that physical activity improves metabolic parameters, which interfere in the development of fatty liver and has a protective role against the development of nafld. results statistical analysis demonstrated that the training group had significant changes in weight, bmi, tc, tg, ldl, vldl, hdl/ldl, tc/ hdl, ast and alt, whereas there was no significant change in hd...

objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of good glycemic control on serum lipids levels and lipid peroxidation, and to find out the relationship between the level of malondialdehyde and hba1c in type 2 diabetes. materials and methods: fifty type 2 diabetic patients aged 40-60 years with the history of diabetes for more than 10 years were studied. glycemic control was stable ...

the simulation of distillation columns is an essential step in design, optimization, and rating. in this paper, a new procedure has been proposed for the initial estimation of column profiles based on modified kremser’s group method for simple and/or complex columns. the effect of this initialization algorithm on simulation procedure has been studied through two examples. the results show signi...

this study was planned to investigate the effects of supplementation of cinnamon on fasting blood glucose levels and lipid profiles among type2 diabetic patients. 60 subjects with type 2 diabetes from both sexes (30 males and 30 females) were allocated to the intervention and control groups (30 individuals per group). t he doses of 1.5 g of cinnamon were equally administered orally in the form ...

the purpose of the present survey was to determine the effects of the chitosan and atorvastatin on serum lipid profile changes and the influence of time on treatment process in cats. for the management of cholesterol induced hyperlipidemia, twenty-one healthy cats were randomly divided into three equal groups. group a (control) included seven cats that were fed with cholesterol powder (4 g/kg f...

shigellosis is an acute gastroenteritis caused by shigella species. the purpose of this study was to determine plasmid profile, antibiotic resistance and phenotypic virulent by congo red between s. flexneri strains. the isolated bacteria were identified by standard bacterial and biochemical methods. plasmids were isolated by alkaline lysis method. antibiotic susceptibility test was performed ac...

Drug mode of action (MOA) of novel compounds has been predicted using phenotypic features or, more recently, comparing side effect similarities. Attempts to use gene expression data in mammalian systems have so far met limited success. Here, we built a drug similarity network starting from a public reference dataset containing genome-wide gene expression profiles (GEPs) following treatments wit...
