Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerinatal Cardiovascular Evaluation in Dorper Sheep Echocardiographic Description and Behavior of the Heart Rate Variability on the FieldAmanda Sarita Cruz Aleixo, Mayra de Castro Ferreira Lima, Ana Luísa Holanda de Albuquerque et al.The heart is innervated by the autonomic nervous system, with a predominance of sympathetic and parasympathetic activity associated, respectively, with increases and decreases in the heart rate, as illustrated by the Heart Rate Variability (HRV). Pregnancy induces significant changes in the maternal cardiovascular and hemodynamic systems. This study aimed at evaluating changes in the clinical and echocardiographic parameters of pregnant … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 3 Nov 2021 · 6,518 accessesView PDF Cite

Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Genetic Basis of Starch Biosynthesis and Waxy Allelic Variation in Rice Grain QualityInnabat Sartbayeva, Aigul Amirova, Dana Mynbaeva et al.The culinary, nutritional, and industrial properties of rice (Oryza sativa L.) grains are fundamentally governed by the structural arrangement of endosperm starch, a complex physiological phenotype shaped by genetic architecture and environmental conditions. This review provides a comprehensive synthesis of the molecular pathways driving starch biosynthesis in rice, centering on allelic diversity within the Waxy (Wx) locus, which codes for … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 22 Sep 2026 · 479 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Bedding Application in Feedlot Cattle: A ReviewDathan Thomas Smerchek, Zachary Kidd Foster SmithA sizable portion of cattle on feed in the United States are fed in the Upper Midwest and Northern Plains region where temperatures routinely fall below freezing during late fall, winter and early spring. The persistent cold temperatures coupled with snow accumulation, wind, moisture and ice can cause undesirable pen conditions for confined cattle, ultimately resulting in decreased insulative capacity … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 23 Feb 2021 · 6,718 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Protease Inhibitors on Metabolic Complications and Lipodystrophy in Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Infected PatientsMohd Khaza, K. Laxmi Prasad, M. EstariProblem statement: Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART)-associated metabolic complications include lipoatrophy (loss of Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue (SAT) and insulin resistance. The risk of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-infected patients receiving Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART) especially protease inhibitors has not been well defined. Approach: We conducted an analysis in the Hospital of Rajeev Gandhi Institute of Medical … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 6,934 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Effects of Drought and Salt Stress on Germination and Seedling Growth of Pennisetum divisum (Gmel.) Henr.Wafa’a A. Al-TaisanProblem statement: Water stress due to drought and salinity is probably the most significant abiotic factor limiting plant and also crop growth and development. Salinity and drought stresses are physiologically related, because both induce osmotic stress and most of the metabolic responses of the affected plants are similar to some extent. Water deficit affects the germination of seed and the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 27,311 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChamaemelum nobile L. Aqueous Extract Represses Endogenous Glucose Production and Improves Insulin Sensitivity in Streptozotocin-induced Diabetic MiceLemhadri Ahmed, Remy Burcelin, Thierry Sulpice, Mohamed EddouksThe present study was undertaken in order to evaluate the possible mechanisms of action involved in the hypoglycaemic activity of the aqueous extract of Chamaemelum nobile (CN) (20 mg kg-1). This study was carried out in multi low-dose streptozotocin-induced (MLDS) diabetic mice. Hypoglycaemic effect of CN was studied after both single and repeated oral administration of CN aqueous extract (20 … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,255 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCoronary Heart Disease (CHD) Risk Factors and Metabolic Syndrome in HIV-Positive Drug Users in MiamiMarianna K Baum, Carlin Rafie, Shenghan Lai et al.The frequency of coronary heart disease (CHD) is increasing among HIV seropositive persons. This phenomenon may be related to HIV disease itself, the use of antiretroviral medications and increased length of survival, or the synergism of these factors. In this study we have calculated the 10-year CHD risk estimate and the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in a cohort of 118 … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,989 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLACTIC ACIDOSIS AND HEMOPHAGOCYTIC LYMPHOHISTIOCYTOSIS: A REVIEW OF THE LITERATURECharat Thongprayoon, Peter J. Edmonds, Patompong Ungprasert et al.Lactic acidosis is the most common cause of anion gap metabolic acidosis and is associated with high morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients. The association between Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) and lactic acidosis is still unclear. HLH causes cytokine overproduction which in turn induces lactic acidosis. There have been only few reports of type B lactic acidosis in HLH patients. There … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 5 Jul 2014 · 7,686 accessesView PDF Cite
