Evening: Yellow Ointment (Ung. Hydrarg. Oxid. Flav. 2 per cent.) 2nd day, morning: Yellow Ointment. Evening: Yellow ointment. 3rd day, morning: Yellow Ointment. Evening: Zinc Sulph. and Ichthyol Ointment (\ per cent. each). 4th day, Operation. If there is discharge, we continue the yellow ointment until it ceases and the eye is fit for operation. Usually after three or four days, the eye is fre...

Objective(s):Iron oxide nanoparticles have found prevalent applications in various fields including drug delivery, cell separation and as contrast agents. Super paramagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) nanoparticles allow researchers and clinicians to enhance the tissue contrast of an area of interest by increasing the relaxation rate of water. In this study, we evaluate the dependency of hydrodynamic si...

Background & Aims: In spite of frequent produce and use of magnetic nanoparticles in biological fields, there are few studies on their side effects, especially under in-vivo conditions. Method: In this research, the effect of the single-dose intraperitoneal injection of DMSA (dimercaptosuccinic acid) coated magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4) in different doses (50, 100, 200 and 300 mg/kg...

We reviewed cardiac T2* assessments from 77 thalassemia major patients between the ages of 2.5 and 18 years to study optimal timing of cardiac iron screening by magnetic resonance imaging. No patient under 9.5 years of age showed detectable cardiac iron in contrast to 36% of patients between the ages of 15-18 years old, corresponding to an odds-ratio of 1.28 (28%) per year. All patients with ca...

Changes in iron concentration in brain tissue are of interest in the study of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and multiple sclerosis [MPY13]. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is inherently sensitive to changes in tissue magnetic susceptibility, which can be used as a direct measure of iron concentration [Sch96]. Changes in tissue magnetic susceptibility result in phase shifts in ...
