transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (tens) is an analgesia inducing method with increasing applications in clinical procedures. in this study we tried to evaluate the role of the adrenergic system and its different adrenoceptor subtypes in tens-induced analgesia. two types of low and high frequency electrical stimuli were used in rats through needle electrodes, inserted at the base of t...

objective: this study was designed to investigate the antinociceptive effect of chronic administration of the flavonoid hesperetin in streptozotocin-diabetic rats using formalin and hot tail immersion tests. materials and methods: rats were divided into 5 control groups, hesperetin-treated control, diabetic, sodium salicylate (ss)-treated diabetic, and hesperetin- and glibenclamide-treated dia...

background and objective: due to the presence of some evidence for anti-diabetic and antioxidant activity of tribulus terrestris (tt), this study was designed to investigate the anti-nociceptive effect of tt in streptozotocin-diabetic rats using formalin test and hot tail immersion tests. materials and methods: rats were divided into control, tt-treated control, diabetic, sodium salicylate (ss)...

OBJECTIVE To study analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities of a methanolic extract (ME) of Argyreia speciosa (AS) root powder. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study was carried out using male albino mice (20-25 gm) and male wistar rats (100-150gm). The ME was prepared using soxhlet extraction process. The effect of ME of A. speciosa was investigated for analgesic activity using acetic acid-induc...

eristalis tenax , belonging to order diptera, family syrphidae seldomly causes in­tes­tinal myiasis. intestinal myiasis caused by e. tenax larvae is a rare manifesta­tion found in both humans and other vertebrate animals. we report a 22-year-old woman presented with this myiasis. the larva in her stool sample was identified as e. tenax related to its typical morphology and authentic clues. lack...
