Introduction:The prevalence of atopic diseases has increased in recent decades dramatically. The most common aeroallergens in Northeastern Iran have not been fully defined. Define the most common aeroallergens in allergic patients based on the skin prick test (SPT) was aimed in this investigation.Materials and Methods:This cross-sectional study enrolled 1,006 allergic patients (aged 1–86 years)...

Mebudipine is a new dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, synthesized in our laboratory, for treatment of hypertension. It has shown a better efficacy than other drugs in this group. For assessing the risks of this drug, certain safety tests in the preclinical stage have been performed. In this study mutagenic effect of mebudipine was evaluated using Ames assay that could assess the mutageni...

AIMS To compare the risk of vascular disease, HbA1c and weight change, between first prescribed insulins in people with type 2 diabetes. METHODS People included in THIN United Kingdom primary care record database who began insulin (2000-2007) after poor control on oral glucose-lowering agents (OGLD) were grouped by the number of OGLDs in their treatment regimen immediately before starting ins...

The paper reports the screening results of two metal-based antineoplastic drugs with mutagenic potential, such as Romcis (trademark of Cisplatinum, produced in Romania) and diphenylantimony(III) diisopropyldithiophosphate (PADTF). Their effects were compared with those induced by Cyclophosphamide. Two mutagenicity tests, the SOS Chromotest and cytogenetic analysis were applied. The tests were c...

Two primary goals of a research field are (i) communicate and preserve knowledge, and (ii) build and maintain a professional community. A range of tools are at its disposal: books, journals, newsletters, lectures, exhibitions, person-to-person communication, magazine and newspaper articles, workshops, and conferences. Each field is marked by a distinct mix and weighting of these venues. To show...

The environmental load associated to Hydrated Lime (HL) products is attributed the limestone decomposition and industrial production (combustion in kiln, electricity, transports, etc.). Although fuel electricity mix used factory can be critical, no records of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) have been found addressing this for HL. Considering current crisis, a shift more sustainable sources energy e...
