Background: Trauma due to external causes represents one of the greatest challenges for public health services in different regions around the world. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of facial trauma, associated risk factors, and classification of body injuries in individuals who underwent forensic examination in a Brazilian center.
Material And Methods: Data were collected at the Ceará State Forensic Medicine unit in a 12-year period.
Objective: To evaluate the anti-inflammatory effect of pretreatment for three days with a fatty acid mixture with high ω-9:ω-6 ratio and low ω-6:ω-3 ratio on rats submitted to dental extraction.
Material And Methods: Thirty-two male Wistar rats (270-310g) were randomly distributed in four groups (n=8/group): the sham control group and the negative control group received saline; the high omega-6/low omega-9 group received isolipid fatty acid with high ω-6:ω-3 ratio and low ω-9:ω-6 ratio; the high omega-3/low omega-6 group received fatty acid with low ω-6:ω-3 ratio and high ω-9:ω-6 ratio. Saline and oils were administered by gavage for 4days before exodontia and 3days after surgery, followed by euthanasia.
Purpose: To evaluate the antioxidant and antiperoxidative effects of oil mixes of high ratio Omega-9:Omega-6 and low ratio Omega-6:Omega-3 in the third day after tooth extraction in rats.
Methods: Thirty-two male Wistar rats (270-310 g) were randomly distributed in two groups: Control (n=24) and Test (n=8). Control group was divided into three subgroups (n=8): G1: Sham-Saline; G2: Saline; G3: Isolipid.
Purpose: To evaluate the effect of bioflavonoid ternatin (TRT) on rat liver regeneration and oxidative stress after 70% partial hepatectomy (PH).
Methods: Thirty six young male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to two groups of 18 animals each - control (G1) and experimental (G2) - and were submitted to PH under inhalatory diethylether anesthesia. G1 rats received daily intraperitoneal (ip) injections of saline (NaCl 0.
Objective: To study the effects of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) omega-3 and omega-6 in the oxidative stress and in liver regeneration in rats subjected to 70% partial hepatectomy (PH, 70% hepatectomy, Higgins-Anderson partial hepatectomy).
Methods: 72 young male Wistar rats were randomly divided into four equal-sized groups: control (G1), partially hepatectomized (G2), partially hepatectomized with two weeks daily intraperitoneal infusion of omega-3 (G3) and partially hepatectomized with two weeks daily intraperitoneal infusion of omega-6 (G4). In moments 36 h (T1), 168 h (T2) and 336 h (T3) post-PH, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and reduced glutathione (GSH) were measured in plasma and liver tissue, while glucose and total bilirubin were measured in blood.
