[Purpose] The aim of our study was to explore the changes in the blood of servicemen in sub-health conditions during a 21-day balneotherapy program. [Subjects and Methods] For this study, 129 servicemen in sub-health condition were recruited. The subjects were randomly divided into either the balneotherapy group (70) or the control group (59). Subjects in the balneotherapy group received whole-...

Monogeneans are the parasites mostly found on the body surface and gills of fish and can cause large losses in farmed fish. Some studies demonstrate elevated parasitic levels causing hematological alterations. But few of them relate the effects of parasitism on the hematology and histopathology of native freshwater farmed fish. This study evaluated the host-parasite relationship in pacu (Piarac...

serum ferritin (sf) levels in 734 seven-year-old children was measured by a radioimmuno assay method, and its possible relation-ship with hemoglobin, hematocrit and mchc was investigated. the results showed there was positive correlation between sf with hemo-globin, hematocrit and mchc values.

The abuse of Acetaminophen (over-the-counter drug) is rapidly increasing globally, thus inducing physiological alterations and toxicity. In this study, it was hypothesized that overdose acetaminophen may induce certain type anemia; hence the anemia induced by oral exposure to toxic dose evaluated. Fifteen (15) Wistar rats weighing approximately 160 g were grouped into three (3) groups; Group 1 ...

Study Design: Descriptive cross - sectional study. Setting: Physiology Department Period: 15 February 2017 August 2017. Material & Methods: A total 500 were enrolled The anthropomet...

The present study evaluates the effect of extraction Iraqi Date kernels oil (Sayer), and Malaysian palm on some. Haematological parameters during later gestation lactation periods female rats. kernel was collected extracted using Soxhlet, pure purchased from Malaysia. divided into two experiments; first included 15 pregnant females at days 17-19 a control group late pregnancy second administrat...

N-Phenylacetyl-L-phenylalanine (PAP) and L-phenylalanyl-3-aminopyridine ( PAPA ) are biaromatic agents with properties that make them suitable candidates for the development of a useful therapeutic agent for the treatment of sickle cell disease. PAP and PAPA are taken up by the erythrocyte to give intra-/extracellular concentration ratios of 2.2 and 1.5, respectively, after a 2-hr exposure peri...

The study aimed at analysing and comparing haematological indices, blood saturation and dimensions of red blood cells of Ross 308 broiler chickens of both sexes. On day 44 of rearing, blood was withdrawn once from 60 randomly selected chickens (1:1 sex ratio). Prior to blood withdrawal the chickens were weighed and their heart rate and haemoglobin saturation were assessed. The following blood p...

Channa punctatus was exposed to four different concentrations of Rutin, Taraxerol and Apigenin. Changes in some hematological parameters of Channa punctatus were assessed to determine the influence of these compounds on test fish. Fish were exposed to sublethal concentrations (80% of LC50 of 24h) of these compounds for one week. Control fish were also administered for one week. Thereafter, bloo...

Haplotype Inference (HI) is a computational challenge of crucial importance in a range of genetic studies, such as functional genomics, pharmacogenetics and population genetics. Pedigrees have been shown a valuable data that allows us to infer haplotypes from genotypes more accurately than population data, since Mendelian inheritance restricts the set of possible solutions. In order to overcome...
