Biotic and abiotic stresses affect plant development production through alternation of the gene expression pattern. Gene itself is under control different regulators such as miRNAs transcription factors (TFs). MiRNAs are known to play important roles in regulation stress responses via interacting with their target mRNAs. Here, for first time, seven conserved miRNAs, associated drought, heat, salt cadmium were characterized sunflower. The profiles targets comparatively analyzed between leaves...
Background: Spasticity is a common symptom that can be detrimental to the quality of life and daily function patients with stroke. Objective: To introduce use dry needling (DN) as novel method for treatment affected upper limb spas
The aim of this study was to investigate the intra-rater reliability Modified Ashworth Scale (MMAS) in upper limb patients with hemiparesis and determine effect pain contracture presence on
Spasticity is a common complication after stroke. Dry needling (DN) suggested as novel method for treatment of muscle spasticity.To explore the effects DN on wrist flexors spasticity poststroke.A single group, pretest-posttest clinical trial was used. Twenty nine patients with stroke (16 male; mean age 54.3 years) were tested at baseline (T0), immediately (T1), and one hour (T2). applied flexor carpi radialis (FCR) ulnaris affected arm session, minute per muscle. The Modified Ashworth Scale...
The Modified Ashworth Scale (MMAS) is a simple clinical outcome measure to assess muscle spasticity in people with brain injury. objective of this cross-sectional study was the interrater reliability MMAS upper li
Context : There are numerous studies on the benefits of dry needling (DN) for pain relief. No exist examining effects DN hamstring flexibility. Objective To determine immediate flexibility in healthy subjects with shortened hamstrings. Design A single-blinded, pretest–posttest clinical pilot study. Setting university physiotherapy clinic. Subjects total 15 (female = 11; age 23.26 [4.3] y) hamstrings participated this Intervention received a single session DN. Three locations muscle group...
Occult hepatitis B infection (OBI) is a frequent finding in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients. While several related mutations the (HBV) genome have been reported, their distinct impact on HBsAg synthesis largely obscure.Thirty-one (18%) out of 172 HIV-infected patients, who were selected from HBsAg-negative positive for HBV-DNA assigned as being OBI-positive. We generated series expression constructs variant with "a" determinant amino acid substitutions including P127L,...
Abstract Background It is unknown how diaphragm training combined with electrical stimulation affects pain, function, static stability, and balance in athletes chronic low back pain (CLBP). This study aimed to explore the effects of combining on dynamic nonspecific CLBP. Methods The design was a randomized clinical trial. A total 24 amateur (12 women, 12 men, mean age: 35.2 ± 9.8) CLBP were randomly allocated into two groups. experimental group ( n = 12) received plus Transcutaneous...
The purpose of the present study was to determine reliability and validity Functional Rating Index (FRI) for athletes with low back pain (LBP). In this cross-sectional prospective cohort study, validated Persian FRI (PFRI) tested in 100 LBP 50 healthy athletes. From LBP, data were recollected among a 7-day interval examine test-retest reliability. content excellent, responded all items no floor or ceiling effects. discriminative supported by statistically significant difference PFRI total...
Occult hepatitis B infection (OBI) has been described in various clinical settings including after virus (HBV) immunization. The purpose of study was to characterize the prevalence OBI among immunized children from a subset general population and parents OBI-positive cases.Sera 1200 who have previously by HBV vaccine were assayed for anti-HBs. 660 randomly selected DNA testing different polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods analysed direct sequencing on surface genes.None participants...
Hamstring muscle tightness is one of the most common problems in athletic and healthy people. Dry needling (DN) was found to be an effective approach for improving flexibility, but there no study compare this with static stretching (SS) as a technique increase length.To immediate effects DN SS on hamstring flexibility subjects tightness.A single-blind randomized controlled trial.A musculoskeletal physiotherapy clinic at Tehran University Medical Sciences.Forty (female: 32, age range: 18-40...
AIM: To characterize the hepatitis B virus surface protein genotypes and sequence variations among HBsAg positive chronic Iranian patients from different ethnic groups. METHOD: The genes 312 were amplified directly sequenced. RESULTS: All strains (100%) belonged to genotype D subtypes ayw2. average nucleotide mutation frequency was 0.91 (dN/dS < 1.0), indicated negative selection. There no significant correlation between HBV DNA ALT levels occurrence of amino acid substitutions. However, in...
Whole-body vibration (WBV) is a type of weight-bearing exercise used in the field sport and rehabilitation. There no study on effects WBV muscle recovery after fatiguing activity.To determine single session lower-extremity fatigue.Randomized controlled pilot study.University Physiotherapy Clinic.A total 13 healthy young men volunteered to participate this study. Subjects were randomly assigned into group (n = 7, mean age: 21 y) or control (CG; n 6, 20 y).Subjects participated single-session...
A prospective, within-group cohort study of 46 patients with chronic low-back pain (CLBP).To assess the responsiveness Persian Functional Rating Index (PFRI) and to determine minimal clinically important change (MCIC) PFRI in a CLBP.The FRI is an instrument for assessing disability pain. No so far has examined PFRI.Forty-six CLBP mean age 50.33±14.28 completed PFRI, Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (PRMDQ), Visual Analog Scale (VAS) before after 10 physiotherapy sessions. Global Change...
Background and Aim: Balance disorder is a common problem in post stroke patients. Vibration therapy one of the interventions that used to treat this impairment physiotherapy. There are several studies on effects more affected foot plantar vibration balance, however according researchers cerebral lesion causes bilateral side body. So aim study was investigate shortterm both feet balance Methods: This pretest-posttest clinical included 12 patients (8 male 4 female, mean age 52.41 ± 9.03...
Background and Aim: Balance disorders are among common complications of chronic low back pain (LBP). Since the tissue echogenicity thoracolumbar fascia changes in chronic LBP, independent motion layers would negatively alter, it may affect control spine movements. It has been shown that myofascial release (MFR) improves function transversus abdominis as a core muscle LBP. So, MFR balance postural control these patients. The aim this study was to evaluate immediate effects stability (CS)...
