[Abstract] The objective of this study was to observe the therapeutic effect of Kanglaite Injection (KLT) combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Regimen for trial group was 2 cycles of chemotherapy (CTX+ADM+DDP) combined with KLT 200ml/d, iv drip, for a consecutive 21 days as 1 cycle for 2 cycles. Regimen for control group was chemotherapy on...

background: adequate self-care in diabetes causes quality of life promotion and decreases the number of inpatient cases. the health locus of control theory is used to assess adherence to diabetes regimen in some studies in developed countries. the purpose of this study was to determine the status of diabetes locus of control in a sample of diabetic patients in iran and investigation of it's rel...

we aimed to compare acceptability of levonorgestrel with the yuzpe regimen among iranian women based on their side-effects and resulting changes in the amount and pattern of menses.five hundred twenty nine participants aged 15-49 having regular menses and one act of unprotected intercourse within 72 h were included in the double-blind, controlled trial in 2006-2007 and randomly assigned into ln...

the pharmacokinetic parameters of ceftazidime, a third generation cephalosporin, were investigated in six buffalo calves after single intravenous (iv) and intramuscular (im) administration at a dose rate of 10 mg/kg body weight. ceftazidime concentrations in plasma and urine were determined by microbiological assay. ceftazidime disposition was best fitted by a two-compartmental and a one-compar...

pyricularia oryzae (tel. magnaporthegrisea) is currently used as a fungal model for plantmicrobeinteraction studies as well as an indicative model for anticancer drug discovery. thepresent study introduces the optimal condition in which p. oryzae grows and sporulates beston common culture media. we have considered three fungal culture media, i.e. pda, pca andwa, based on which p. oryzae sporula...

the electrocatalytic oxidation of captopril (cap) was studied by modified carbon nanotubes paste electrode in the presence of isoproterenol (ispt) using cyclic voltammetry (cv), chronoamperometry and square wave voltammetry (swv). also, the values of catalytic rate constant (k), and electron transfer coefficient (α) for cap were calculated. the mechanism of ca electrochemical behavior at the mo...

different recovery mechanisms are activated during the production from reservoirs. wells sometimes are kept with the injection. therefore the evaluation of injection indices depended on material injection, seems to be necessary. this study is going to determine the drive indices for a reservoir by making a model using eclipse. the model consists a gas cap and aquifer, in which there is an injec...
