Background: The present study examined the possible role of endogenous opioidergic system in effect of food deprivation on formalin-induced nociceptive behaviors in male and female rats. Also, we investigated the effect of food deprivation on the plasma level of beta-endorphin and sex hormones. Methods: Food was withdrawn 48 h prior to performing the formalin test, but water continued to be ava...

Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) can be generalized or localized, and secondary or primary; thus, understanding the pattern can help in finding the cause. Generalized hyperhidrosis may be due to an underlying systemic disease or to medication use. Focal hyperhidrosis is often primary (idiopathic) and triggered by emotional stimuli, although it is not generally a psychiatric disease.

introduction: ghrelin increases growth hormone secretion and food intake. growth hormone (gh), steroid hormones and opioids are involved in the regulation of food intake. so, they may have a role in the regulation of ghrelin secretion. we determined the effect of intravenous injections of progesterone, gh and morphine or co-administration of these hormones on ghrelin concentration and body weig...

the effect of blood glucose level changes induced by 24h food deprivation and intraperitoneal (ip) injection of insulin (2iu/kg) and glucose (2gr/kg) was investigated on the pain induced by intraplantar (ipl) injection of formalin (20ml , 5%) in mice. blood glucose level changes were determined by blood sampling from the apex of the tail of mice. ip injection of insulin and 24h food deprivation...

this case highlights unusual symptoms that may be present with an SAH. The patient initially complained of chest and shoulder pain rather than headache. Along with her diaphoresis and pallor, it was easy to mistake her discomfort for a cardiac event. Administration of aspirin in this case could have been catastrophic. It is critical for the surgeon to remember all potential complications of a p...
