Rhododendron dauricum L. is an ancient Chinese traditional herb. The pharmacological effects of R. dauricum extract have been shown in chronic tracheitis. The aim of this study was to investigate the cardiovascular effects of Rhododendron dauricum L. flavonoids (RF) on rats and its mechanisms. This study was performed in isolated vascular rings and a rat model of myocardial infarction and isola...

This paper focuses on the relationship between an $L$-subset and the system of level-elements induced by it, where the underlying lattice $L$ is a complete residuated lattice and the domain set of $L$-subset is an $L$-partially ordered set $(X,P)$. Firstly, we obtain the sufficient and necessary condition that an $L$-subset is represented by its system of level-elements. Then, a new representat...

In this paper, the notion of $L$-convex fuzzy sublattices is introduced and their characterizations are given. Furthermore,  the notion of the degree to which an $L$-subset is an $L$-convex fuzzy sublattice is proposed and its some  characterizations are given. Besides, the $L$-convex fuzzy sublattice degrees of the homomorphic image and pre-image of an $L$-subset are studied. Finally, we obtai...

Prevention and treatment of neuropathic pain (NP) is one of the most difficult problemsin clinical practice since the underlying mechanism of NP is unclear. In previous studies, theincreased production of nitric oxide (NO) has been closely linked to the induced NP. In thisstudy, we assessed the effect of atorvastatin through NO mechanism, on inflammation, thermalhyperalg...

for a given hypergraph $h$ with chromatic number $chi(h)$ and with no edge containing only one vertex, it is shown that the minimum number $l$ for which there exists a partition (also a covering) ${e_1,e_2,ldots,e_l}$ for $e(h)$, such that the hypergraph induced by $e_i$ for each $1leq ileq l$ is $k$-colorable, is $lceil log_{k} chi(h) rceil$.

Background: Although ionizing radiation is a risk factor, it is a therapeutic agent for cancer. Objectives: The protective and defensive effect of L-Carnitine and vitamin E on gastrointestinal tract organs (liver, spleen and intestine) post whole body gamma irradiation exposure. Material and methods: 56 male albino rats, which were divided into four groups (14 rats per group); group (I): Contro...

heparin- induced thrombocytopenia (hit) is an antibody mediated adverse effect of heparin therapy which is classified into two subtypes, hit i which is non-immune, spontaneously reversible thrombocytopenia and; hit ii which is an autoimmune-mediated adverse effect of heparin therapy. in this case report, we described a 65-year old male patient with hit ii after coronary artery bypass grafting. ...

two experiments were performed for in vitro establishment, proliferation and shoot growth in axillary bud explants of sebri pear cultivar. in the first experiment, the effect of different concentrations of iba(indole-3-butyric acid) on explants’ establishment was evaluated. in a second experiment, the influence of several combinations of pgrs (plant growth regulators)on shoot proliferation and ...

Introduction: The mechanisms of hepatic encephalopathy are not fully understood. Moreover, there is no comprehensive data concerning the effects of nitric oxide (NO) system on anxiolytic-like behaviors induced by bile duct ligation (BDL). Methods: Male mice weighing 25-30 g were used and anxiety-like behaviors were tested using hole-board task. Results: The data indicated that cholestasis incre...
