Cytotoxic Effects of Intranasal Midazolam on Nasal Mucosal Tissue.

The aim of this experimental study was to investigate the cytotoxic effects of intranasal midazolam on nasal mucosal tissue in rats. Forty healthy rats were randomly divided into 5 groups. Group 1 (n = 8) was the control group, group 2 (n = 8) received intranasal saline, group 3 (n = 8) received intranasal midazolam, group 4 (n = 8) received intraperitoneal saline, and group 5 received intraperitoneal midazolam (n = 8).

Comparison of the effects of dexketoprofen trometamol, meloxicam and diclofenac sodium on fibular fracture healing, kidney and liver: an experimental rat model.

Objectives: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are particularly used in patients with bone fractures, but there are limited studies on whether one NSAID is superior to another. In this study, we used histopathological and biochemical parameters to determine whether there are differences between the effects of the administration of clinical doses of dexketoprofen trometamol (DEXT), meloxicam (MEL) and diclofenac sodium (DIC) on the healing of closed fibular fractures and the toxicity of both the liver and kidney.

Methods: Twenty-eight male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups of seven each.

Effects of Equisetum arvense Ointment on Diabetic Wound Healing in Rats.

Unlabelled: This study is designed to evaluate the effect of Equisetum arvense (EA) ointment on dermal diabetic wound healing in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.

Methods: In this study, diabetes was induced via a single intraperitoneal injection of 65 mg/kg streptozotocin in 56 male Wistar rats. After anesthetization, a 15 mm x 15 mm wound for each rat was made by removing skin in a circle on the dorsum.

Topical effects of nebivolol on wounds in diabetic rats.

Objective: Recently, it has reported that nebivolol might be useful in the treatment of diabetes mellitus foot ulcers. The aim of this study was to examine treatment of the wounds in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats with topical nebivolol.

Methods: Two 15 × 15 mm-sized wounds were created in 56 streptozotocin-induced rats.

The effects of long-term exposure of magnetic field via 900-MHz GSM radiation on some biochemical parameters and brain histology in rats.

The aim of this study is to determine the effects of magnetic field via cell phones on some blood parameters and neurons in the brain of rats. Animals have been classified into three groups: control, Magnetic Field (MF), and F2 groups. Throughout this study, cell phones were placed on the wall of the cages.

Effects of Equisetum arvense Ointment on Dermal Wound Healing in Rats .

Unlabelled: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of Equisetum arvense ointment on dermal wound healing in rats.

Methods: The authors studied a total of 56 wounds in four groups of rats. Each wound measured 15 mm x 15 mm.
