one of the most common health problems are diseases of the cardiovascular system with a great bulk of disease burden; while a considerable number of cardiac patients undergo cardiac surgery; cardiac surgical procedures with cardiopulmonary bypass (cpb) are nowadays among the top list of surgical procedures. more than half of a century has passed since the introduction of total cardiopulmonary b...

background: there is a worldwide interest in searching for potential and effective medicinal plant candidates against various diseases or disorders. till now, there are number of anti-inflammatory drugs like nsaids are available which showed various adverse effects in our body. to reduce these adverse effects, some of medicinal plants have been experimentally validated. aim: the aim of our immu...

objective: this study was aimed to examine the antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects of urtica dioica leaf extract in animal models. materials and methods: hydroalcoholic extract of the plant leaves was prepared by percolation method. male swiss mice (25-35 g) and male wistar rats (180-200 g) were randomly distributed in control, standard drug, and three experimental groups (n=6 in each...

background & aim:zea mays leaf used traditionally in ibibio ethno medicine in southern nigeria to treat malaria and other inflammatory diseases. these anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties were evaluated against experimentally induced inflammation and pains using standard models. experimental: the effects of ethanol leaf extract of zea mays (170 -510 mg/kg) on experimentally induced inflam...

a new series of transition metal complexes of co(ii), ni(ii), cu(ii) and zn(ii), has beensynthesized from the knoevenagel condensate schiff base ligand(l) derived from β-ketoanilideand furfural with o-phenylenediamine and diethylmalonate. structural features were determinedby spectral and analytical techniques. square-planar geometry has been adopted by thecomplexes except cobalt complex which ...

fibrates, as hypolipidemic drugs known as agonists of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors, diminish inflammatory responses. studies have shown that incorporation of a silicon atom into a drug structure improves its pharmacological potency, modifies its selectivity toward a given target, or changes its metabolic rate, in addition to increasing the lipophilicity of the compounds. a silico...

the methanolic extract of whole plants of solanum nigrum l. was investigated for anti-inflammatory activity on the experimental animal models. the methanolic extract at a concentration of 100 mg.kg-1 and 200 mg.kg-1, p.o. showed the significant dose dependent anti-inflammatory activity in carrageenin and egg white induced hind paw oedema in rats. anti-inflammatory activity of the tested extract...
