pituitary suppression by depot gnrh agonist may be excessive for ovarian stimulation. this study compares the efficacy of a single half-dose depot triptorelin and reduced-dose daily buserelin in a long protocol icsi/et. methods: a total of 182 patients were randomized into two groups using sealed envelopes. pituitary desensitization was obtained in group 1 (91 patients) with half-dose (1.87 mg)...

The technology of Neural Stimulation in recent years has become the focus of the research and treatment, although it has been around for many years. The potential use of stimulating the brain and nerves ranges from the spinal cord stimulation to the implantations of cochlear and bionic eyes with a large discrepancy between the clinical readiness for these various uses. Electrical high-frequency...

Cryopreservation of embryos and gametes has become an indispensible service for infertility treatment. Vitrification is now a prevalent technique for cryopreservation in assisted reproductive technology (ART) replacing, in many cases, conventional slow cooling methodology. Fertility preservation in female patients has become a very topical issue. Various malignant and nonmalignant diseases have...

This study aims at investigation of stimulation by using intra-spinal signals decoded from electrocorticography (ECoG) assessments to restore the movements of the leg in an animal model of spinal cord injury (SCI). The present work comprised of three steps. First, ECoG signals and the associated leg joint changes (hip, knee, and ankle) in sedated healthy rabbits were recorded in different trial...

background and aim: the normal response of h-reflex depression (hd) was reduced in chronic spinal cord injury (sci) patients. the reduction of this normal response can lead to increase the muscle tone and spasticity. the purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of tripolar cathodal stimulation on hd in sci patients.   materials and methods: this study was conducted in 10 volunteered s...

In this study, the authors reported a case of woman with severe compulsion who became pregnant during the Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation. We carried out Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and behavior therapy simultaneously after repeated medications' refraction. The patient received 20 sessions 1 Hz Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in right dorsolateral pref...

background: acceptance of uterus and reaction between endometrium and embryo has an important role for implantation. muc1 an integral membrane mucin is expressed on the apical surface of uterine epithelial cells and could have effects on its receptivity. objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate the changes in muc1 expression of gravid mouse endometrium with and without hyperstimulation ...

Abstract There is evidence that high-frequency transcranial random noise stimulation (hf-tRNS) effective in improving behavioural performance several visual tasks. However, so far there has been limited research into the spatial and temporal characteristics of hf-tRNS-induced facilitatory effects. In present study, electroencephalogram (EEG) was used to investigate dynamics cortical activity mo...

background: the primary goal of antenatal testing is to identify fetuses at risk of intrauterine neurologic injury or death so that these adverse outcomes can be prevented. we want to assess nonstress test (nst) results and some parameters before and after vibro-acoustic stimulation and acupressure. we did a randomized controlled clinical trial in shahid-beheshti hospital in isfahan in 2011. ma...

introduction: considering high prevalence of epileptic disease and considering that 40 percent of epileptic patients are resistant to drug therapy, it needs more researches to find new therapeutic ways. lfs is among the new methods for epilepsy treatments. one possible mechanism involved in the anticonvulsant effect of lfs is increased adenosine. therefore, in this study the role of adenosine p...
