The Effect of Zinc Deficiency and Supplementation on Elements in the Kidney Tissue of Ovariectomized Rats: Histopathologic Changes.

The objective of the present study is to determine the effects of zinc deficiency in and zinc supplementation to ovariectomized rats on some elements in kidney tissue. The study included 40 Sprague-Dawley type adult female rats. The experimental animals were randomized into four groups with equal numbers as follows: Group 1: Control (10).

The effect of zinc deficiency and zinc supplementation on element levels in the bone tissue of ovariectomized rats: histopathologic changes.

Objective: Study aimed to determine the effects of zinc supplementation/deficiency on the histological structure and elements levels in bone tissue in ovariectomized rats.

Methods: The study included 40 Sprague-Dawley type adult female rats, divided as follows: Control, ovariectomized, ovariectomized + zinc supplemented, ovariectomized + zinc deficient groups. At the end of the study bone tissues (femur) were collected to determine the levels of calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, zinc, iron, aluminium, chrome, lithium, lead, nickel, and manganese.

Zinc deficiency and supplementation in ovariectomized rats: their effect on serum estrogen and progesterone levels and their relation to calcium and phosphorus.

The aim of this study is to examine how zinc deficiency or supplementation affects estrogen and progesterone and calcium and phosphorus levels in the serum. The study was carried out on 40 adult female rats of Sprague-Dawley species. The rats were allocated to four groups: Group 1: Control, Group 2: Ovariectomized (OVX) control.

The effect of low dose zinc supplementation to serum estrogen and progesterone levels in post-menopausal women.

The objective of the present study is to investigate how low-dose zinc supplementation for 2 weeks in the post-menopausal period influences levels of estrogen and progesterone in the serum. The study registered 32 natural menopause patients, who were allocated to four groups with equal number of patients. Group 1, control group, which was not subjected to any procedure.

Effect of zinc deficiency and supplementation on lipid peroxidation of renal tissue in ovariectomized rats.

The aim of this study was to investigate how zinc deficiency and supplementation affects lipid peroxidation in the renal tissue in ovariectomized rats. Four study groups were formed with 10 Spraque-Dawley rats each. Two of the groups served as normal and ovariectomized controls; the other two were ovariectomized rats that were zinc deficient and zinc supplemented, respectively.

The effects of zinc deficiency and supplementation on lipid peroxidation in bone tissue of ovariectomized rats.

This study aims at investigating how zinc deficiency and zinc application affect lipid peroxidation in bone tissue of ovariectomized rats. The study included 40 adult female rats of Sprague-Dawley species. Group 1 (n = 10): control group were fed with normal diet.
