One of the methods of cancer treatment is radiotherapy. Although radiation resistance and toxicity in normal cells limit the use of radiotherapy in some specific anatomical situations, however, together with radiotherapy, the use of substances that increase the radiation sensitivity of cancer cells and at the same time toxicity can be useful if they do not have cells on normal cells. The present study aimed to investigate the radiosensitizing effect of tolmetin in radiotherapy treatment on human

The present is study focused on Lab-Scale biotreatment of chromium electroplating effluent using mixed bacterial strains. The electroplating effluent contaminated soil sample was collected and sixteen bacterial colonies were isolated and identified through morphological and biochemical characteristics. All the sixteen bacterial isolates were screened for metal tolerance using nutrient agar medium incorporated with chromium metal ions. Of the sixteen bacterial isolates, only four bacterial strain

The use of muscle-enhancing steroids, particularly anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS), has sparked widespread concern about their effects on cardiovascular health, notably their link to heart attacks. This presentation provides a comprehensive assessment of the link between muscle-enhancing drugs and heart attacks. It investigates the physiological pathways by which steroids might contribute to a variety of cardiovascular issues such as hypertension (high blood pressure), dyslipidaemia (abnormal

Hyperlipidemia and obesity represent significant global health challenges associated with heightened risks of angina, atherosclerosis, and stroke due to elevated blood lipid levels. Exploring natural agents as potential therapeutic interventions is promising in addressing these conditions. In this study, the antihyperlipidemic and anti-obesity effects of ethanolic extract from Parmotrema tinctorum were evaluated using an olive oil-induced hyperlipidemic rat model. Rats were divided into distinct

Creatine is a naturally occurring compound found in muscles that plays a vital role in energy metabolism. It has been shown to have beneficial effects on skeletal muscle function and exercise performance, but recent studies have investigated its potential role in various fields of medicine. The study aimed to analyze accessible literature and illustrate the current state of knowledge on the use of creatine in these settings, as well as make predictions for further research. A link between low cr
