BACKGROUND Information is lacking concerning optimal infusion rates of crystalloid during resuscitation from acute haemorrhage. In this study, a mathematical model was used to predict infusion volume of crystalloid needed to restore and maintain blood volume after acute haemorrhage. METHODS The scenario was a haemorrhage of 15 ml kg(-1) over 30 min in a 70 kg man. A bolus of crystalloid was a...

A field experiment was conducted aiming to study the influence of Sulphur and Zinc on growth yield chickpea during Rabi season 2021/22. The treatments were T1 (20 kg sulphur h-1 + 10 zinc h-1), T2 15 T3 20 h-1),T4 (30 T5 T6 T7 (40 T8 h-1) T9 h-1). findings show that treatment recorded highest plant height (44.11 cm), maximum number nodules/plant (42.40), dry weight (8.05 g/plant), pods/plant (3...

Objectives: Curcumin has anti-inflammatory and antioxidative properties. The objective of this study was to investigate the therapeutic effects of curcumin on functional disturbances, oxidative stress, and leukocyte infiltration induced by renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Materials and Methods: Animals were randomly divided into 9 groups. The groups with 24-h reperfusion consisted of sham-24h,...

objective: crocin, as an active constituent of saffron, has many biological functions including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. the present study was aimed to investigate the effects of crocin and chlorpheniramine on local edema induced by histamine. materials and methods: local edema was induced by subcutaneous injection of histamine (100 μl, 0.1%) in ventral surface of right hin...

The effect of pentagastrin in step-wise increasing doses of 0 . 02, 2 . 0 and 20 nmol/kg/h (0 . 01, 1 . 0, and 10 . 0 micrograms/kg/h) on pepsin and acid secretion was studied in seven healthy subjects. The study was repeated on another day during infusion of glucagon in a dose of 103 pmol/kg/h (0 . 36 micrograms/kg/h) which results in plasma-glucagon concentrations comparable with those seen a...

there is growing evidence indicating that neuronal calcium channels play an important role in the mechanism of morphine dependence. in this study, the effects of acute and chronic administration of nitrendipine on naloxone precipitated morphine withdrawal signs were investigated. mice were rendered dependent to morphine by subcutaneous injection of morphine over a period of 5 days. in chronic s...

a reconnaissance study has been made on the distribution of 238u, 232th, 40k, 137cs andgeochemical features in soil and sediment samples at various locations on the coast of bushehr in the persiangulf. in this study a gamma-ray spectrometer based on a high purity germanium detector and a pc basedmca and x-ray fluorescence (xrf) method were used. estimation of the measured radionuclide contentha...

The main concern of an olive grower is primarily to achieve more income and profits. A harvesting method having higher efficiency and better fruit and oil quality, but a higher operation cost leads to a lower benefit. A study was carried out to evaluate the techno-economic performances of Trunk Shaker (TS) and Mechanical Harvest Aid (MHA) shaker for harvesting the yellow and Manzanilla olive cu...
