Background: Microalgae are known to have beneficial effects on health. On the other hand, studies have reported negative effects of diabetes on hematological parameters. Effects of Spirulina platensis (SP) and Chlorella vulgaris (CV) microalgae, singly and combined, on hematological parameters in diabetic rats are not still studied. Thus, the present study was conducted to investigate the effec...

Tramadol is a synthetic, centrally acting opioid analgesic that has the best analgesic efficacy without excessive sedation and significant side effects in the postoperative pain relief in dogs. OBJECTIVES: In this study, hematological and biochemical changes due to short usage of tramadol were assessed in clinically healthy dogs. METHODS: For this purpose, eighteen male mongrel dogs aged 14 to ...

this study was conducted to investigate the effects of curcuma zedoaria and zingiber zerumbet on non-specific immune responses of grouper (epinephelus coioides). fish were fed an experimental diet containing 0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.5 g/kg of c. zedoaria and z. zerumbet mixed diets twice daily for two weeks. non-specific immune parameters such as respiratory burst activity, reactive oxygen species, phago...

objective:  to assess whether non-surgical periodontal treatment is associated with changes in serological markers of systemic inflammation. materials and methods: thirty-five systemically healthy subjects with severe generalized periodontitis meeting the inclusion criteria participated in a four-month single blind interventional trial of which thirty-two completed the study. periodontal parame...

results there were no significant differences between the 4 groups in white blood cell count, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and esr at baseline (p > 0.05). the number of platelet units was remarkably higher, but the number of mpv and hco3 was considerably lower in patients with loss/ failure criteria. conclusions mpv is higher in the case of platelets destruction, and this is commonly observed in inf...

Objectives: This study focuses on the hematological parameters change and age in radiation field workers. The study aimed to identify the effect of radiation on hematological parameters and their relation to age and duration of the experience in radiation field workers. Material and Methods: This study was conducted in the Physiology research center in collaboration with thalassemia and hemogl...

Sporadically, hematology analyzers generate grossly erroneous results for one or several parameters of the complete blood count (CBC) because of a characteristic or peculiarity of an individual patient specimen. This article presents three cases of relatively less well-known analytic errors of this sort, falsely elevating white blood cell count and platelet count and decreasing total white bloo...

background: this study investigated the protective effects of aqueous extracts of anogeissus leiocarpus (dc) guill & perr (combretaceae) and terminalia avicennioides guill & perr (combretaceae) root barks, as well as their 1:1 (w/w) mixture on liver redox and haematological parameters of diethylnitrosamine-treated rats. methods: rats were orally administered distilled water, diethylnitrosamine ...
