Ameliorative effect of venom against arthritic influence of Freund's complete adjuvant FCA in paw and ankle of male rats.

Background: Pain and inflammation are closely associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), which affects the bones and joints.

Aim: While there are a number of therapeutic options for arthritis, their side effects restrict their use and encourage the search for alternative, natural remedies.

Methods: In male rats, we examined the anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritic properties of venom (NHV).

Chronic artificial light exposure in daytime and reversed light: Dark cycle inhibit anti-apoptotic cytokines and defect Bcl-2 in peripheral lymphoid tissues during acute systemic inflammatory response to lipopolysaccharide.

Aims: The disturbed light: dark (LD) cycle has been associated with critical complications, including obesity, diabetes and cancer. In the present study, we investigated the chronic effects of artificial light at daytime (AL) and light at night (RAL) after intraperitoneal (i.p.

Pain management with virtual reality in burn patients: a literature review.

Burns are injuries to the skin or the underlying tissue system caused by heat, radiation, electricity, friction or chemicals. Burns can cause pain and discomfort during dressing changes; a person's pain response varies depending on individual perception. The pain response can indicate tissue damage in the body, as pain causes a person to experience discomfort.

Novel homozygous nonsense mutation in glucagon-like peptide-2 receptor gene resulting in severe human illness.

Glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP2) acts on the GLP2 receptor (GLP2R) and plays a role in intestinal growth and adaptation. The endogenous actions of GLP2R do not have an established association with human disease, although mouse-knockout models in a stressed state show enhanced susceptibility to small bowel injury, increased morbidity, mortality, and abnormal host-bacterial interactions. We report an 11-month-old female with multiple intensive care unit admissions for severe metabolic acidosis due to profuse nonbloody diarrhea in the context of various infections.
