Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrevalence and Risk Factors Associated with Needle Sticks and Sharp Injuries among Nurses at the Accident and Emergency Department of Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital, Kumasi-GhanaAugustine Kumah, Hilda Agortimevor, Francis Akakpo et al.Needle Sticks and Sharps Injuries (NSSI) represent a major occupational hazard in the health care industry, with professional nurses incurring a large proportion of the total burden particularly with items that have been previously used on patients. This study investigated the prevalence and risk factors associated with needle sticks and sharp injuries among nurses at the accident and emergency department … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 28 Dec 2020 · 7,785 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Investigation on the Failure Mechanism of Bovine Bone by Three-point Bending TestsHua Li, Rujie Gao, Ruiqi Li et al.Bone damage is a common type of sport injury. The loading rate affects the type of fracture and the degree of soft tissue injury. In view of the problem of whole bone bending damage and failure, this paper introduces the test method of bovine bone bending and the mechanism of bending failure under different loading rates is analyzed through experimental … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 10 Jul 2020 · 6,541 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCase Study on the Effects of Plan Irregularities on Seismic Performance of StructuresEduardo Flores, Tadeh ZirakianGeometric configurations, such as large openings, re-entrant corners, and discontinuity in diaphragms, are very common in architectural design but are seen as undesirable for structural performance during earthquakes. The lateral systems in a structure resist the strong forces induced during an earthquake, preventing damage or collapse of the structure. If these systems fail, the structural integrity of the building may … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 21 Jul 2024 · 5,726 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmune Metabolism in Functional Aspects of the BrainElisa Gonzalez Cuevas, Nitya G. ChakrabortyThe brain interacts with the immune system in a highly regulated and restricted manner. Immune signals initiate pro- and anti-inflammatory activity in most body tissues in response to disease states and injury. An accumulation of inflammatory insults can disrupt immune metabolic homeostasis and give rise to pathology in sensitive areas. Here, we provide an overview of interactions between immune metabolism … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 18 Dec 2019 · 7,222 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTrilobatin Possesses Protective Potentials on H2O2-Induced HepG2 Cells by Suppressing Oxidative Stress: Involvement of Nrf2/Keap1 Signal PathwayYuhan Zhai, Yuqing Zhang, Yaping Li et al.Trilobatin, a natural dihydrochalcone compound, possesses various biological activities. However, few investigations have been carried out on the mechanisms of trilobatin against oxidative stress. To comprehend the effects and mechanism of trilobatin on oxidative stress after hepatic injury, H2O2-induced HepG2 cells were used in this research. The results indicated that trilobatin enhanced the viability and improved the apoptosis morphology of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 22 Dec 2023 · 5,089 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Environmentally Friendly Protection Measures Against Pests and DiseasesN. S. Mukhamadiyev, A. M. Chadinova, N. Sultanova et al.The paper describes the monitoring of phytosanitary conditions in different regions of the Almaty region (Kazakhstan) and demonstrates the large population of cruciferous fleas (Phyllotreta cruciferae) on rapeseed plants, which reaches 7-9 spec./m2, exceeding the economic injury level (3-5 spec./m2). The disease is observed to spread on wheat and barley seeds. Proceeding from this, the study aims to develop effective … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 2 · 27 Apr 2023 · 5,246 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Coriander Seeds Extract Against Thyroidectomy Induced Testicular Damage and DNA Replication in Male RatsAzhar Azher Alankooshi, Ahmed F. Hasan et al.An important target organ for thyroid hormone activity is the testis and hypo or hyperthyroidism causes noticeable alterations in testicular function. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effect of Coriander Seeds Extract (CSE) against thyroidectomy induced toxicity, oxidative stress, injury, and proliferation in male testes rats. 40 male rats were equally divided into 4 groups [Gp1, control; Gp2, CSE; … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 2 · 3 Apr 2023 · 6,614 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of B-Glucan Against Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma Induced Renal Toxicity in MiceAhmed Flayyih Hasan, Azhar Azher Alankooshi et al.Several studies have been focused on identifying alternative medicines for the treatment of cancer. This study aimed to investigate the impact of B-Glucans extract (BG) against Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma (EAC) induced toxicity and tissue damage in kidney. A total of 40 mice were assigned randomly to four groups (G1, control; G2, B-Glucans (75 mg/kg bw/day) orally for 2 weeks; G3, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 1 · 23 Feb 2023 · 5,595 accessesView PDFCite
