Evaluation of the effects of favipiravir (T-705) on the lung tissue of healty rats: An experimental study.

Favipiravir, a broad-spectrum RNA-dependent RNA polymerase inhibitor widely used during the COVID-19 pandemic, effectively reduces viral load but has been linked to inflammatory changes in tissues such as the liver and kidneys. High-dose and prolonged use of favipiravir for COVID-19 raises concerns about its potential toxic effects on the lungs, particularly in patients with pre-existing pulmonary conditions. This study investigated favipiravir's effects on lung tissue in healthy rats.

Single Mutation Different Clinical Findings: IGLL1 Defect.

Agammaglobulinemia is a rare inherited immunodeficiency disorder characterized by low or absent B cells with absent immunoglobulins. While X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is the most common type other genetic forms of agammaglobulinemia have been identified. During early childhood, passively transferred maternal Immunoglobulin G protects against various infections.

The protective effect of angiotensin II type I receptor blocker (valsartan) on behavioral impairment, NLRP3, BDNF, and oxidative stress in the brain tissue of ovariectomized female rats.

Depression and anxiety are common mental health disorders affecting thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. This study aimed to investigate the effect of the angiotensin II type I receptor blocker (AT1RB), valsartan, on menopause-induced depression and anxiety-like behaviors, and to elucidate possible mechanisms of action by measuring levels of nod-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3), interleukin-1beta (IL-1β), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and oxidative stress in brain tissue. Thirty-two Wistar albino female rats were randomly divided into four groups (n = 8 per group): Control, AT1RB, OVX, and AT1RB + OVX.

Impact of magnesium on intraperitoneal adhesion in an experimental rat model.

Background: Intraperitoneal adhesions are fibrous bands that form between tissues and organs in the abdominal cavity, which can result from the body's healing process after surgery, leading to pain, bowel obstruction, and infertility in severe cases. Magnesium (Mg), known for its anti-inflammatory and anticoagulant properties, has been hypothesized to influence adhesion formation.

Objectives: This study is designed to explore the hypothesized benefits of Mg, known for its anti-inflammatory and anticoagulant properties, on the prevention of intraperitoneal adhesions that commonly occur following abdominal surgeries.
