Acute and Chronic Whole-Body Vibration Exercise does not Induce Health-Promoting Effects on The Blood Profile
(2015)Whole-body vibration (WBV) exercise is an alternative, popular and easy exercise that can be followed by general public. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of acute and chronic WBV ... -
Blood reflects tissue oxidative stress depending on biomarker and tissue studied
(2009)This study investigated whether selected oxidative stress markers measured in blood adequately reflect redox status in skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. Several markers were determined after implementing two treatments ... -
Cardiotoxicity in rabbits after a low-level exposure to diazinon, propoxur, and chlorpyrifos
(2014)Lethal cardiac complications leading to death and various arrhythmias have been reported after organophosphate and/or carbamate poisonings. The present study focuses on the long-term effects of repeated low-level exposure ... -
DNA damage in a human population affected by chronic psychogenic stress
(2003)The effects of chronic psychogenic stress on the expression of DNA damage and cellular response to the damage were investigated. Using the comet assay, basal DNA damage was found to be similar in lymphocytes of both affected ... -
Do steroids, conventional non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and selective Cox-2 inhibitors adversely affect fracture healing?
(2009)Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are among the most commonly used drugs worldwide. They are prescribed for orthopaedic conditions such as osteoarthritis, soft-tissue injuries and fractures. The new generation ... -
Effect of aerobic training on (99m)Tc-methoxy isobutyl isonitrile ((99m)Tc-sestamibi) uptake by myocardium and skeletal muscle: implication for noninvasive assessment of muscle metabolic profile
(2008)Aim: The effect of long-term endurance training on skeletal muscle and myocardial uptake of (99m)Tc-sestamibi, a radiopharmaceutical accumulating in the mitochondria, was investigated. Methods: Twenty-six Wistar rats were ... -
Effects of dietary vitamin A intake on acrosin- and plasminogen-activator activity of ram spermatozoa
(2005)Acrosin and plasminogen activators are proteolytic enzymes of ram spermatozoa that play an essential role in the induction of the acrosome reaction, as well as the binding of spermatozoa to the oocyte and their penetration ... -

Effects of the active constituents of Crocus sativus L., crocins, in an animal model of anxiety
(2008)Crocus sativus L. is a plant cultivated in various parts of the world. Crocins are among the active components of Crocus sativus L. The present study was designed to investigate in the rat whether or not crocins possess ... -
The effects of the short-term administration of low therapeutic doses of anti-COX-2 agents on the healing of fractures - An experimental study in rabbits
(2007)We have evaluated the effect of the short-term administration of low therapeutic doses of modern COX-2 inhibitors on the healing of fractures. A total of 40 adult male New Zealand rabbits were divided into five groups. A ... -
Elemental composition of bone minerals in women with breast cancer treated with adjuvant tamoxifen
(1996)Oestrogen levels play a major role in conditioning the rates of bone changes in women. Tamoxifen is a synthetic oestrogen antagonist commonly used as an adjuvant therapy for breast cancer. The goal of the present study was ... -
