Diabetes mellitus is a highly prevalent disease globally and contributes to significant morbidity mortality. As consequence of multiple pathophysiologic changes which are associated with diabetes, these patients frequently suffer from foot-related disorders: infections, ulcerations, gangrene.

It is quite common for portal vein thrombosis to occur in subjects who present predisposing conditions such as cirrhosis, hepatobiliary malignancies, infectious or inflammatory abdominal diseases, hematologic disorders. The incidence of idiopathic non-cirrhotic patients remains low, and despite the intensive workup that performed these cases, up 25% there no identifiable cause. If untreated, complications arise include hypertension, cavernous transformation vein, gastroesophageal even small...
This study aimed to evaluate the comparative biological effects of Polygonum aviculare L. herba (PAH) extract and quercetin-entrapped liposomes on doxorubicin (Doxo)-induced toxicity in HUVECs. HUVECs were treated with two formulations loaded PAH (L5 L6) quercetin (L3 prepared phosphatidylcholine L4 phosphatidylserine). The results obtained atomic force microscopy, zeta potential entrapment liposome efficiency confirmed interactions or free a controlled release flavonoids entrapped all...

Right hemicolectomy cholecystectomy were performed pathological...
Acute cardiac pathologies represent one of the leading causes death, while iron metabolism is recognized to be implicated in reactive oxygen species production, lipid peroxidation, and inflammation. The aim present study was assess chelation effects isoproterenol (ISO) induced acute stress. We divided male Wistar rats into preventive secondary treatment groups, with active arm consisting deferiprone (DFP), a permeable chelator. Mortality ISO 10-18.18% both groups. analyzed serum myocardial...
