Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine and metabolic disorders . This study aimed to investigate the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on insulin resistance, oxidative stress, soleus muscle function, and myokine levels in a PCOS rat model. Female rats were assigned to four groups: Control, PCOS, PCOS+Exercise, and Exercise (n=15 each).

- Alzheimer's disease (AD) significantly affects the elderly, and this study explores the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on cognitive functions, specifically verbal fluency and working memory, in AD patients.
- Patients with mild dementia underwent cognitive assessments before and after a 30-minute session of tDCS applied to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) to evaluate changes in their cognitive performance.
- Results showed significant improvements in attention and processing speed, as indicated by reduced completion times on certain tests, but no notable changes in working memory or verbal fluency following the tDCS intervention.
Self-care behavior covers individual's health, life and well-being to maintain the necessary activities. The aim of this study is to examine the self-care and possible anxiolytic effects of high-intensity interval exercise (HIIT). Eight-week-old Wistar Albino male rats were divided into Control (n = 8), and Exercise (n = 8).

Cellulose acetate (CA) membranes, due to their excellent film-forming property, high chemical and mechanical stability, high hydrophilicity, eco-friendly, and suitable cost, are extensively used in water and wastewater treatment, gas separation, and energy generation purposes. The CA is one of the first materials used to fabricate filtration membranes.
