In this study, we examined whether porcine articular cartilage (PAC) is a suitable and effective anti-adhesive material. PAC, which contained no non-collagenous tissue components, was collected by mechanical manipulation and decellularization of porcine knee cartilage. The PAC film for use as an anti-adhesive barrier was easily shaped into various sizes using homemade silicone molds. The PAC fi...

Sarcosine is a competitive inhibitor of glycine type 1 transporter. We hypothesized that it may have analgesic and anti-neuropathic efficacy by a dual action: affecting neurotransmission in the prefrontal cortex as well as within the spinal cord. In rats with spared nerve injury (SNI) oral sarcosine reduced mechanical sensitivity for the injured limb (anti-neuropathy or anti-allodynia) as well ...

a new antagonistic discourse has been formed among intellectuals, in the intellectual history of the world.  some anti-british, and after september 1941 anti-american activities are evident among iranian intellectuals under the rule of pahlavi i. the westerns' anti-west beliefs disclose the unjust behavior of west in contrast to non-westerns, what chamskey introduces as one of intellectual...

Although bolometricand ponderomotive-induced deflection of device boundaries are widely used for laser cooling, the electrostrictive Brillouin scattering of light from sound was considered an acousto-optical amplification-only process1–7. It was suggested that cooling could be possible in multiresonance Brillouin systems5–8 when phonons experience lower damping than light8. However, this regime...

The onset of fatal and near-fatal asthma attacks can be rapid. The objective of this study was to determine the frequency and clinical characteristics of rapid-onset asthma (ROA) in patients suffering fatal and near-fatal crises. Two-hundred and twenty patients with fatal or near-fatal attacks were enrolled in a multicentre, prospective study. ROA was defined as a crisis developing in < or =2 h...

cutaneous lesions of fish from viral, bacterial, parasitic and chemical and mechanical factors are common. the rapid progress of infection and the mortality of fish need more attention. allium hirtiofolium is a native plant in iran which contains saponins, it has a role in inhibiting and killing cancer cells with anti-allergenic, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory and anti-virus effects. in this...

The anti-collision pier plays an irreplaceable role in road traffic protection due to its significance. In this research, the biomimetic honeycomb structure was applied internal interior structures. enhancement of mechanical strength and energy absorption characteristics explored optimized by five Finite elements piers are designated as 650 mm diameter 850 height. Polypropylene Acetate (PLA) ma...
