Photosystem II (PSII) functions were investigated in basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) plants sprayed with 1 mM salicylic acid (SA) under non-stress (NS) or mild drought-stress (MiDS) conditions. Under MiDS, SA-sprayed leaves retained significantly higher (+36%) chlorophyll content compared to NS, leaves. PSII efficiency NS conditions, evaluated at both low light (LL, 200 μmol photons m−2 s−1) and high (HL, 900 s−1), increased a parallel significant decrease the excitation pressure (1-qL) excess...
Water deficit is the major stress factor magnified by climate change that causes most reductions in plant productivity. Knowledge of photosystem II (PSII) response mechanisms underlying crop vulnerability to drought critical better understanding consequences on plants. Salicylic acid (SA) application under may stimulate PSII function, although exact mechanism remains essentially unclear. To reveal celery plants sprayed with water (WA) or SA, we employed chlorophyll fluorescence imaging...
Abstract Introduction/objectives Intra-articular injections may be useful in terms of pain and functional status, knee osteoarthritis (OA). Besides hyaluronic acid (HA) platelet-rich plasma (PRP), peptide molecules recently begin to used. The aim this study was compare the efficacy intra-articular Prostrolane® (CAREGEN Co. Ltd.) injection with that HA PRP persons OA. Method Fifty-four patients OA were included prospective, randomized study. Patients into three groups as HA, peptide, groups....
Abstract Objective The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness dry needling therapy combined with exercise and treatment alone for alleviating dizziness caused by cervical myofascial pain syndrome. Design This was a prospective randomized clinical that included 61 women who had trigger points on neck muscles. patients were into + group (N = 31) an only 30). Results mean age (±SD) 38.4 ± 8.3 years. intragroup comparisons severity pain, algometric measurement, number attacks per...
Our aim was to investigate the prevalence of sarcopenia in stroke patients, relationship between detected with different low muscle mass (LMM) adjustment methods, and stroke-related parameters. Eighty-one patients chronic who underwent inpatient rehabilitation were included. Spasticity evaluated by modified Ashworth scale, Brunnstrom staging approach used for motor function evaluation, physical independence using Barthel Index, quality-of-life EQ-5D-3L, Cumulative Illness Rating Scale...
[Purpose] There are many types of hyaluronic acid preparations, but no clear data available about which preparations is more effective. The aim this trial was to investigate the effectiveness different on pain and function inpatients with knee osteoarthritis. [Subjects Methods] All patients were diagnosed by clinical examination x-ray. Ostenil PLUS® injected into 28 (group 1, 1.6 million daltons), MONOVISC® 2, 2.5 daltons) 46 patients. Demographic Western Ontario McMaster Universities...
To evaluate treatments with interferential current, hot pack, ultrasound therapy, stretching, strengthening and range-of-motion exercises, comparing between the right left shoulders in terms of pain functional capacity patients frozen shoulder.This was a retrospective study.[Subjects Methods] Sixtyfour (34 side, 30 side) were treated current pack application for 20 min each, therapy 3 min, regular stretching Theraband all directions post-exercise proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation...
In the prospective, randomized, controlled multicenter study, 100 patients who were clinically diagnosed with sarcopenia assigned to either a home-based exercise group or control group. The training program included exercises gradually increasing intensity comprising posture, stretching and upper- lower-extremity muscle-strengthening exercises, balance coordination gait training. Before 3 months after program, all evaluated. 6-min walking test Berg Balance Scale scores increased...
BACKGROUND: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a commonly seen peripheral nerve mononeuropathy. Corticosteroid injection within the carpal among conservative treatment options. The exact mechanism of action steroids not fully clear; decreased inflammation surrounding nerves or tend ons thought to be main effect. Lidocaine has been shown have anti-inflammatory effects on certain cells (monocytes, macrophages, neutrophils etc.). aim this study evaulate efficacy lidocaine as alternative...
This study aims to investigate the prevalence, etiology, and risk factors of cervicogenic dizziness in patients with neck pain.Between June 2016 April 2018, a total 2,361 (526 males, 1,835 females; mean age: 45.0±13.3 years; range, 18 75 years) who presented complaint pain lasting for at least one month were included this prospective, cross-sectional study. Data including concomitant dizziness, severity, quality life (QoL) impact vertigo (via Numeric Dizziness Scale [NDS]), QoL Handicap...
Purpose: Patients diagnosed as thoracolumbar junction syndrome were divided into 3 treatment groups and the results of each modality compared. Materials Method: 30 included in study with definitive diagnosis Maigne’s Syndrome. The first group received exercise therapy, second was treated local steroid injections third combination therapy both injection exercise. Findings: groups. Each had 10 patients. average age detected to be 23.43 ± 3.75. A flattening 4 patients (40%), 6 (60%) (40%)...
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine the effects of microprocessor-controlled prosthetic knee (MPK) joint on self-mobility, body perceptions, depression, and quality life in patients with unilateral transfemoral amputations (TFAs). METHODS Thirty consecutive (28 males, mean age=38.5 years, age range=22-57) who had previously used non-MPKs were approved use swing stance phase-control MPKs included this 12-week clinical study. Before MPK after three-month follow-up, locomotor capabilities...
Iodixanol and iopamidol are commonly used contrast agents in coronary angiography. We evaluated the nephrotoxic effects of both media relation to renal biomarkers. A total 38 low-risk patients who underwent angiography were enrolled. Patients randomized receive either low-osmolar nonionic monomer or isoosmolar dimer medium. N-Acetyl-β-d-glucosaminidase (NAG), endothelin, blood urea nitrogen, urine serum creatinine (SCr) levels measured before procedure (T0), at 6 hours (T6), 1 year after...

In this study, the Kellgren and Lawrence system was used as most common radiographic grading for diagnosis of osteoarthritis in patients defined Grade III IV. It is aimed to reveal oxidative stress cellular immunity status. context, aim discuss possible risk parameters regarding disease process treatment effectiveness.

Isoniazid (isonicotinic acid hydrazide [INH]) has been used for treatment of tuberculosis since 1952. Pyridoxal-5-phosphate and consequently GABA synthesis are decreased by INH, which increases cerebral excitability, thus seizures might occure this way. In some rare cases, INH may induce mania, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, psychosis via acting as a monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor or decreasing pyridoxine. report, 28-year-old man with acute psychotic attack under prophylactic...
