Protective Effect of Chloroform Extract of Cyperus Rotundus against DNBS Induced Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Rats
Abstract: The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of Cyperus rotundus on DNBS (Dinitrobenzene sulfonic acid) induced IBD in experimental rats. The experimental protocol (Protocol No. 9012 dated 26th Dec 2009) was approved by Institutional Animal Ethical Committee of Anand Pharmacy College. Colitis was induced with DNBS (180 mg/kg in 50% ethanol) intracolonically in animals on the 11th day of the study. Animals were fasted for 24 h prior …

Microalbuminuria as an Independent Screening Tool in Patients with Myocardial Infarction
Abstract: Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) is a condition in which there is an inadequate supply of blood and oxygen to a portion of myocardium; most common cause being atherosclerosis of coronary vessels. Microalbuminuria (MAU) is defined as urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) of 30–300 mg/g. It is considered as marker of generalized endothelial dysfunction and vasculopathy and suggested to contribute to the formation of atherosclerotic lesion and ultimately leading to risk of …

The Evaluation of the Light Parameters and Pleural Fluid Cholesterol to Determine the Differences Between Exudative and Transudative Pleural Discharge
Abstract: Background: Pleural effusion occurs when an imbalance between pleural fluid production and absorption leads to the accumulation of excess fluid in the pleural cavity. Pleural effusions are commonly classified into two types: transudative or exudative, depending on the underlying mechanism of fluid formation. While transudates typically result from systemic factors like heart failure or liver cirrhosis, exudates are usually caused by local factors such as infection, malignancy, or inflammation. Differentiating …
