The current study dealt with the interaction of garlic homogenate (GH) with propranolol (PRO) in rat, and to determine whether this effect is associated with biochemical and histological changes. Albino rats were treated with GH at three different doses of 125 mg/kg (GH-125), 250 mg/kg (GH-250) and 500 mg/kg (GH-500) orally for 30 days and PRO was incorporated in the interactive groups during t...

Background: Pro-inflammatory cytokines are associated with systemic inflammatory responses. Objective: To investigate the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1b, IL-6, and TNF-a) in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) compared to healthy individuals. Methods: This case-control study was c...

Kemalism is a topic that occupies national and international historiography provokes fruitful controversial debates. This paper has four objectives: firstly, to place in its historical context; secondly, discuss whether was an ideological continuation of the Unionists review programme Kemalist administration; thirdly, political structure fourthly, characterize administration socio-economic term...

introduction: pulmonary arterial hypertension (pah) is a late progressive sclerodermarelated complication, which can lead to right heart failure and cor pulmonale. given that cardiac catheterization is a diagnostic method of choice for pah, and considering the high risks of this method, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between serum pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (pro‐b...

In this study, PP films were modified with an organic pro-degradant in different concentrations (1, 2 and 3 wt.%), exposed in the first step of degradation to natural ageing for 100 days followed by biodegradation in simulated soil in the respirometric test for 100 days. At the end of the combined degradation process the PP samples were characterized according to their morphological and physica...

Background Respiratory Distress (RD) is a life-threatening respiratory failure. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic value of N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) in distinguishing respiratory and heart diseases in neonates. Materials and Methods Hundred fifty neonates aged 2-3 days randomly collected from those who hospitalized in the related ward of the Ali ...

Transient expression of proteins in plants has become a choice to facilitate recombinant protein production with its fast and easy application. On the other hand, host defensive mechanisms have been reported to reduce the efficiency of transient expression in plants. Hence, this study was designed to evaluate the effect of cap analog and Potato virus A helper component proteinase (PVA HC-Pro) o...
