The Diamedica non-rebreathing valve has been developed for use in draw-over anaesthesia and can be positioned at the common gas outlet. Its performance was evaluated against the Laerdal, Ruben and Ambu valves under laboratory conditions. Valve resistance during inspiration and expiration was simulated over a range of constant flow conditions. During flows ranging from 5 to 45 l.min(-1) , the Di...

Objective(s): The aim of the present study was to evaluate antioxidant and methyl donor effects of betaine in cerebellum following levodopa and benserazide administration in rats. Materials and Methods: Sprague-Dawley male rats were treated with levodopa (LD), betaine (Bet), levodopa plus betaine (LD/Bet), levodopa plus benserazide (LD/Ben), levodopa plus betaine-benserazide (LD/Bet-Ben), and t...
