Objective(s):Parkinson's disease (PD) is known for motor impairments. But often, there are non-motor symptoms such as cognitive deficiency and pain misperception, owing to possible role of nigrostriatal pathway. Antioxidants have protective effect on free radical-induced neuronal damage in PD. To further address, we examined the effects of ellagic acid (EA) in a rat model of PD induced by 6-hyd...

Background: The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the characteristics of patients, treated by acute peritoneal dialysis (PD). We also assessed the indications for PD, PD-associated complications and neonatal outcomes in our patients. Methods: During five years, 30 term newborns underwent temporary cycling PD. The procedure was performed by applying the manual technique. A straight ...

Objective: Up to now, no investigation has applied a complementary approach in terms of the emotional and affective temperament to study Panic Disorder (PD), Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and healthy controls. Hence the current study aimed to investigate the affective and emotional temperaments among individuals with PD, PTSD, and healthy controls using an integrative temperament scale...

parkinson's disease (pd) is a chronic neurodegenerative condition which has the second largest incidence rate among all other neurodegenerative disorders barring alzheimer's disease (ad). currently there is no cure and researchers continue to probe the therapeutic prospect in cell cultures and animal models of pd. out of several factors contributing to pd prognosis, the role of p38 mapks (mitog...

Partial Discharge (PD) is the most important source of insulation degradation in power transformers. In order to prevent catastrophic failures in transformers, PDs need to be located as soon as possible so that maintenance measures can be taken in time. Due to the structural complexity of windings, locating the PD source inside a transformer winding is not a simple task. In this paper, the effi...

the catalytic acvtivity of dimeric and monomeric ortho-palladated complexes [pd{c6h2(ch2nh2-(ome)2,3,4}(µ-cl)]2)2) and [pd{c6h2(ch2nh2-(ome)2,3,4}cl(pph3)](3), was investigated in heck cross-coupling reaction. these complexes are more active and efficient catalysts for heck cross-coupling reaction. the palladium complexes 2 and 3 is employed in the heck cross-coupling reaction between styrene a...
