Background: During a radiological or nuclear disaster, exposure to a high dose of ionizing radiation usually results in cardiovascular diseases such as heart failure, attack, and ischemia.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the mitigation effects of Spirulina in comparison to Metformin's.
Methods: 25 male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to five groups (5 rats in each): for the control group, rats did not receive any intervention.
Background: Some compounds have been investigated to mitigate the effect of radiation on the lung, such as pneumonitis and fibrosis.
Objective: This study aimed to examine the mitigation efficiency of Spirulina compared to the effect of Metformin.
Methods: 25 male Wistar rats were allotted in five groups: control, Spirulina, Radiation, Radiation plus Spirulina, and Radiation plus Metformin.
